Trumpist IQ on Display. Jan. 6 Edition.

Something caught my eye when the first images of the Capitol "gallows" were shown...

Other than the rickety construction (Sorry, I'm a garage woodworker) the noose looked funny.

Seriously. If you wanted to make a hangman's knot, wouldn't you google it?

Apparently not.

After being confounded by the daunting task of copying a YouTube video, the constructor of the "gallows" apparently gave up and simply wrapped the rope in circles around a Coke can (or is it a bundled up t-shirt)

How does it feel knowing that 40% of the country has an IQ below that of 3 day leftover Pizza in the frig?

Looks like cosplay to go along with their LARPer outfits. That's not even a proper noose. TheBlackAdder Apr 2021 #7

It's the symbol of their unified feelings. It's a hate symbol. That's why they love it. That's all that matters.

I firmly believe there were orchestrated efforts that may have ended with the device being used. They didn't.
The gallows being used as a hate symbol though always works to excite a well indoctrinated crowd.

The so-called "garage door puller" in that NASCAR garage at least looked like someone knew what they were doing or could at least operate Google. Mo-rons.....
