Bronx, NY. Over 80% Democratic. What did imbecile sign-guys expect? Cake?

I’d hardly call Yankee Stadium attendees demographically representative of the Bronx, but still.

May this be the kick in the pants they need to realize they are not the populists they think they are.

Same thing the insurrectionists expected: praise from Cheeto Mussolini and being regarded as heros.

Reality is rough when you leave your echo chamber.

They probably thought Yankees fans would understand losing.

They think Trump won. You think they had a realistic expectation of what the reaction would be?

Maybe the more this happens the more they’ll comprehend that he lost the election because more people voted against him than voted for him. The big lie is built on the foundation of the delusion that it was impossible that so many people disliked him, which, if you are paying any attention to anything is an amazingly backwards way to look at reality.

So… who made the sign? It’s professionally made. I’m very curious where all this branded paraphernalia is coming from. Someone’s designing it, someone’s making it, someone’s paying for it.

You can’t just go down to the hardware store and buy a 20-foot “Trump Won Save America” sign. This involves slightly more planning, I think, than “Hold my beer.”

The article doesn’t seem to say if the two members of the Cult of Trump were banned from the stadium. If they were what’s the duration of the ban and how quickly did the Cult decry their being canceled from the stadium?

Normally having a local kid grow up to become President would be a point of pride, even for a controversial President. Has there ever been a POTUS as reviled by his home city as Trump?

This one has got a suitably dystopian aesthetic.

Yeah, this tracks with the fact that the 6th of January was a Wednesday and the people who turned up could afford to take at least one day off and travel a potential long distance, both of which cost money. Much like other instances of fascism, it relies on/spawns from the affluent middle class as opposed to the actual working class, who can’t afford such luxuries…

Which means China :wink:(“guangzhouzhijiandianzishangwu” was listed as the seller for at least two of the items on that Amazon link).

Don’t they search people coming in? Even folded, that would be pretty big.

Well, he didn’t MAKE it. Just allows a third party to sell it. There is a lot of BS on that site that will rip people off if they aren’t careful.
