I can picture him now, desperately flipping through the pages of “Python for Dummies” and trying to figure out what went wrong.

My bet is on “large portions of the budget being spent on blow”.

Look, this stuff isn’t easy. It’s not like you can just get a bunch of bloodstained 2011-vintage Dell servers from a Jacksonville police auction, fill their drive bays with bath salts and splice them into the cable TV hookup at the back of Hooters. You also need to run the RV’s engine for a while to charge up the battery.

Mike (whose business is now suffering) is launching a “free” social media site (but his pillow business is suffering) and is going to provide a place for all conservatives to talk freely, except about porn, blasphemy, and a few other things he’s already said you can’t talk about (did I mention his core business is suffering?). Mike, I’m sure, has all the investors he needs (even though his own business is falling apart) to make this a success (Mike needs money… badly!).

No, of COURSE this wasn’t an attempted grift that failed. Frank will be up and running in no time (just as soon as Mike gets those dollar dollars he needs). Mike is a rich man, I’m sure he’s hired the best (while his company burns around him).

Not another grift!

a huge letdown that’s for sure. After all the hype.

Doesn’t that pretty much sum up these grifters?

One would wonder when the money well will run dry for these grifter/criminals? Perhaps the well is bottomless when it comes to saving Murica & making it great again, again, again?

He will probably turn it on just as soon as he is done presenting the evidence for MaSsIVe VoTeR FrAuD.

Kinda like the joke I made after finally seeing Buckaroo Banzai last year… “How much coke was involved in the production of that movie? Almost enough.”

Perhaps he couldn’t get that “real space age stuff” security just right, so that racists and fascists would feel as comfortable as they do on Gab.

Maybe all the software engineers just slept in, on their comfy pillows?

Wait, you need servers? I was going to run my social media site from a USB stick.

Where on earth would they have gotten comfy pillows?

I look forward to seeing whatever shitshow they eventually come up with, assuming it ever goes live. It’ll be amusing.
