The irony meter hasn't been broken. It's been pulverized, and disintegrated.

For years these teabaggers and lunatics wailed about an elected tyrant with a shady past, criminal connections and foreign loyalties. Who would fundamentally alter the nature of our country. Tell me. What the fuck did they just vote for?

for it to be ironic, you'd have to believe that they were serious about their complaints. they weren't. they were just lying and smearing and slandering and saying any rotten crap they could in order to exert power and get their our people out and their people in.

so that someday they'll wake up and realize they've screwed themselves. that will not happen. they will continue to cheer on trump, republicans, and right-wingers and continue to smear logic, facts, democrats, liberals, etc., no matter how badly the people they vote for ruin this country and their own constituents. in fact, that will only make them double down on it all.

rubes. I believe those idiots believed or wanted so badly to believe anything and everything that was served up by the Alex Jones types. I'm referring to the crazy uncle/grandparent types with the chain emails. Yes, most of them are that stupid.
