    Translation: MAGAts who helped create and enable this entire shit show but who have lost their grift, attempt to reposition themselves for a return to some kind of power later on.

      They’re combining their powers to start a whole new grift. Make no mistake, they haven’t changed, they’re just the first rats jumping a sinking ship. Alex Jones has already turned on him, too, and is calling for his impeachment, lol

      I bet Joe Rogan will be next

        Joe Rogan always seems like someone just startled awake from a nap. But even he is like “huh, like what is up with this war in Iran, bro?”

          That’s a very generous assessment, but I assure you, he’s just a fucking idiot.

            It’s a shame, he’s probably like this from tbi’s from when he was young he doesn’t have the capacity to differentiate between fact and fiction a h ore but he has the curiosity of a scientist

              Did you ever see him on the show NewsRadio? He didn’t really seem all that different from how he is today.

              I’d like to pity him, but I just don’t have it in me

        Rogan’s already made some moves in that direction - nothing firm, but enough to pivot to (or away from) if he decides to.
