Just leaving this here:
Edit: Somehow it warms my heart this money was well spent Mercer money.

Yeah, no sympathy whatsoever for what’s-his-face…

Trump’s next big hire.
BTW, the fact that this thread has both an Ignatius J. Reilly reference and a quote from Kurt Vonnegut makes it just about the bestest thread ever in the history of threads.

I’ve never heard of this prick in my life, but he really does sound like an asshole.

Nah, he doesn’t deserve the energy required for hate, it’s just a momentary distraction of enjoyment seeing someone thoroughly deserving of reaping what they’ve sown before being thrown in the dustbin of history.

No, that’s part pf his shtick. On Breitbart, he was always MILO, all caps and no last name. (The sad attempt at pretending to be famous enough to only need one name. I always think of Milo Minderbinder first.)

He’s always struck me as a spoiled rich kid who just thought he deserved an easy way to get richer and wanted attention.
This is far from the first time he’s whined “but you guuuuys its hard”.
So I have no doubt he genuinely believes this and only this. Its certainly has an impact on the fact that his chosen avenue is politics, and which politics he espouses. But I dont think he truely feels or believes anything beyond “Milo special, give him your money and applause”.

Remember how the left endorsed a known pedophile sex offender for the Senate at the same time that the right was ousting one of their own over revelations of engaging in inappropriate-but-far-less-serious behavior on a USO tour?
Oh sorry, that was just my political dyslexia kicking in.

What was that for?
I was being completely serious; if you genuinely don’t know who that guy is, then you are lucky, or blessed, or whatever you want to call it.
Lord knows, I wish I’d never heard of him…

Yeah, he was being funded by Rebekah Mercer. Now he’s just living off of money he ripped off of his followers from various schemes (e.g. that “White Privilege” college fund for white men, of which exactly zero dollars have gone to anyone but Milo) and the advance for the book that got rejected. I’m happy to see anyone who supports Milo get ripped off, but I’m just sorry any of the money goes to Milo. Though on the plus side, he’s now established a lifestyle for which he can no longer afford to pay.
His talk of spending “his own” money is pretty hilarious given how much money he spends that wasn’t even intended for him.
His talk of safety in the face of threats is hilarious given he’s spent his career doxing people so that his followers could threaten them. His followers have attacked and even shot people - but on the other hand, someone was once mean to him in a restaurant.
Oh man, it’s worth it for the take-downs.

And it’s only for 8 people! That’s a staggering restaurant bill to me. Last time I paid that much I was literally feeding 100 people.

Understandable, given that I am so very good at it… 
But no, I do seriously envy you, for not knowing who he is.

If Jonathan Harris could check in from the afterlife, I’d love to hear him read Milo’s rant in his whiniest Doctor Smith voice.
