      It’ll be funny and poetic until we all get to watch a contestant die for the first time during a prime time live event … and the crowd roars and the ratings go through the roof as everyone realizes … the gladiatorial games to the death have returned … and this time we can stream it!!!

        Trumpflix, but that show is pay per view with the premium plus $199 a month plan. $399 pay per view of course.

      That is not true. Any immigrants that can spend $5 million are free to buy a fresh, hot, and newly minted social security card!

      “According to the Daily Mail…”

      My bs senses are tingling on this one, too. I think I’ll be watching for confirmation from elsewhere before I give this much energy.

      Edit: it’s insane that it’s even remotely believable, though. And it is believable. Like, easily believable.

          The Daily Mail is nit an unknown source. They are the most awful British tabloid. I give them negative trust.

    Then they deport the winner anyway, because citizenship doesn’t matter to Trump.

    So MAGA wants to take away birthright citizenship and institute game show winner citizenship. This is the same government we’re relying on to do the right thing in a nuclear confrontation.

      I remember during the zelensky ambush at the white house that DJT said it would make great TV as well.

      Clown country.

    There are really people out there who support this shit who think they deserve to be regarded as good people just because they’re friendly on an interpersonal level.
