    “Mr. Trump posted a link to his website and a photo of his mug shot in his first new post on X since Twitter banned his account after the U.S. Capitol riot on Jan. 6, 2021. “Never surrender!” the caption under the mug shot read.”

    Captioning “Never surrender” Under a pic of him after surrendering to the authorities. LOL

      People have been saying it for a few years now, but satire is well and truly dead. This entire excerpt could absolutely be out of an Onion article.

        That’s the same look my kids had when they were little and didn’t get their way.

        That’s the expression I make when I realise I’ve been on the toilet a bit too long and my legs have gone numb. Great look, 45.

    Trump returning to a renamed rightwing Twitter and the NYT giving it breathless coverage is a perfect example of the fucking idiotic media environment we live in. They’ve got about 300 stories about the misunderstood Trump voters in diners planned, stenographers ready to transcribe his every utterance on social media, and a host of “liberal” commentators chomping at the bit to write the next “has wokeness gone too far” piece. The upper class enlightened centrists of the paper may thoroughly disavow him at their dinner parties, but they’re fucking in love with the idea of humanizing fascism, because having the opinion that racism, transphobia, and domestic terrorism are bad and should be fought against is just so boring.
