It was unusual, for sure. I remember when comedians told me I was supposed to find it funny that Republicans were still taking Russia so seriously, like we were still in the Cold War. I am not proud of the Obama years.
But I also remember the small chorus of Republicans who heckled Obama with that "At least Putin's a strong leader" crap. So this is not something that just showed up in 2016.

As I understood it, several Democrats did do exactly that. The GOP simply gave their seats to T fans, so there'd be no empty seats to make T look bad. I might wonder if it simply needed more Democrats to do the same, but imagine that no shortage of T fans were available, and they'd probably still find a way to make it look to the nation like the Democrats are the bad ones.
They should've all showed up, waited until he started talking, then walked out en masse without a word. It would've driven him right up the wall.

Using only seized crypto is actually a smart way to go about this grift, if they are going to go through with it one way or the other, as it costs the rest of us nothing and makes use of something the government already had lying around, so to speak.

If we're going to do this, I begrudgingly admit this would probably be the best way to go about it. At the same time, I remain firmly against this as I do still believe crypto at all levels to be a scam, regardless of original intent.
Even if it wasn't Trump, whose penchant for scamming isn't well documented, I'd be skeptical.
it's one thing to watch the destruction of every major social safety net & societal norm; it's another to watch it being done but SUCH ******* IDIOTS.

The US military has removed photos of the B-29 bomber “Enola Gay” — which dropped the first atomic bomb on Japan — apparently because it contains the word “gay,” which violates their new anti-DEI rules...

Fox News Suddenly Starts Panicking About Trump’s Economy: “Weakening!”
Yes, they’re still blaming Joe Biden, but the talking heads at Fox are getting awfully nervous that President Trump might be on the verge of sending the economy into a tailspin.

Well, yeah. You don't get to stay the top viewed "news" network if your entire viewer base can't afford cable... or electricity... anymore.

Fox will tell them that getting their Social Security cut off is "good, actually", because something about Biden and immigrants and DEI, and the viewers will nod in agreement right up until their TV turns off because the power company cut their electricity for non-payment.
The flip of that coin is: research has already shown that it only takes like a month to deprogram fox news viewers after removal. So... country wide mass deprogramming.
Fox will go whichever way the ratings lean. Trump's approval ratings are dropping, so this week they're mildly questioning his policies. Next week they could just as easily flip back around to kiss the ring again.
And in all likelihood, will.
