Just for fun I turned on Fox covering the Great American Shit Show and there are zero people there

And so after the opening shot of a lot of green grass there are showing other clips rather than
than showing the big nothing that is Trump’s shit show. Now they are back to the shit show warning
about Communism in front of a lot of grass.

I’m done.

Non stop lying and in 15 minutes or less @ least 6 mentions of being blessed or God’s
Will and Trump promising to give a long speech @ his great American shit show. Go for
it Donny.

floating around somewhere of the White House and surrounding areas after the "THUNDERDOME" fights, it shows the absolute carnage of what they are doing and have done.....
I can only imagine that Putin has sent daily secret, back channel notes to Trump, since 2016: WELL DONE, COMRADE

What HWBush did in the Reagan period, to the middle class, These Republicans are doing to our country's Capitol, and all of it's citizens......

You know they thought this was going to be a slam dunk with propaganda oozing out of the screen.

I cackle with glee with the reality and optics on how this is a total flop.FOX is in so deep, they couldn’t pack it up and head home early if they wanted to.

Great backdrop guys!

It opened on June 25. It’s been open one week. Everyone who wanted to go and has the ability to get to DC has already been. Because it’s not a state fair it doesn’t have most of the traditional elements of one - no livestock exhibits, no home economics displays, no arts entries - so, you go once and you’re good. And the only people who’d go once are Trump’s fans - of which there aren’t many.
