    That’s a weird cult they have going on there. I’m quite sure people weren’t this crazy 20 years ago. In my country we are having elections this year and out of curiosity I watched debates from the 90s, I was astonished that there was at least some discourse, conversation and that politicians were talking about real problems while bringing up real data. Idiocracy seems more real than ever.

      Idk what it is about Trump that has completely broken people’s brains. I know a lot of people who were relatively normal or at least not really interested in politics before Trump and are now completely obsessed like this.

    So I’ve been scratching my head so long as I ponder how an unofficial digital currency officially named after and endorsed by the sitting president, an elected official officially bound to ethical legal standards, is somehow a thing that’s still happening out in the open, unchallenged, that I’ve finally reached the arachnoid mater and am on the cusp of accessing my grey matter within the month.

      Because both parties let corruption run unchecked for so long that at this point pretty much everything is legal and no one cares.

    Or, as we call it, “prostitution”. Except instead of a teenth of crack and $5, the president is available for a meme coin.

    Afterwards, get yourself checked.
