Encounter with MAGA Fool

[kairos12]

On the elevator a MAGA cretin saw my army Tee, ball cap, short hair and made a very wrong assumption. This MAGA fool said let’s impeach Biden over Afghanistan.

Pause…

I said actually Trump’s army of 5000 released Taliban prisoners are responsible.

Also Trump should be tried for Crimes Against Humanity for his COVID response.

MAGA sputtering ensued.

I laughed quite loudly.

[Atticus]

1. Well done! Carry on! nt

[Diamond_Dog]

2. I get that sometimes, too.

Since I’m a middle aged (cough, cough) nice white lady, the MAGAts assume I’m one of them, too. Always fun to see their faces when they find out you’re not a member of their cult.

[Mr.Bill]

6. Happens to me, too.

I just tell them "Look here, pal, I spend 12 hours a day on the internet arguing politics and I'm very knowlegable. Trust me, you don't want to talk to me.

[WinstonSmith4740]

37. Oh, I love that response!

I'm definitely stealing it. ThanKs!

[louslobbs]

3. Thanks!

N/T

[brush]

4. Nicely handled.

[rurallib]

5. careful when they sputter - probably has covid viruses

[LymphocyteLover]

7. Right? I would get away from there ASAP

[paleotn]

8. Their "deer in headlights" looks are almost as delicious as their tears.

[LymphocyteLover]

9. EXCELLENT!

[madamesilverspurs]

10. Well done!

Amazing how erroneous their assumptions can be. Kinda like when they assume an old lady with Biden bumper stickers will be an easy verbal target. And they seem just sooooo amazed when they get something other than agreement, hehehehehehe...

[COL Mustard]

11. Thank You For Having Served

Lots of people didn’t and as far as I’m concerned, veterans are the real 1%.

[FakeNoose]

12. Great answer

[calimary]

13. K&R especially for your quick and concise retorts!

Easy to remember for use in future encounters with the knuckle-dragger crowd.

“I said actually trump’s army of 5000 released Taliban prisoners are responsible.

Also trump should be tried for Crimes Against Humanity for his COVID response.”

Keeping these for my own use! REALLY good, quick and all-encompassing!

[pwb]

14. They are mistaken about muscle

and guns, we have them.

[kairos12]

17. I've said all along do these Trump Tools

actually think they can create a MAGASTAN without real pushback from the Combat Arms trained vets on the left.

They are truly burracho.

[Pepsidog]

20. And we shoot straight.

[aggiesal]

23. Borracho (jajaja), muy bueno ...

y no tenemos ojos de gafas de cerveza.

Entonces podremos apuntar derecho.

[kairos12]

25. Ojos de

Tequila. Tan fuerte.

Con MAGA esta mentirosas por todo lado.

[PutGramaOnThePhone]

29. Trained and...

right…er…correct thinking. Thank you for your service! I’m so grateful for every one of the former and current (actually don’t know if many/any post here) service members here on the light side.

[DemUnleashed]

15. Fantastic!!

You made my day!!!

[IronLionZion]

16. Happens to me sometimes

I'm a big grumpy brown dude with a short buzz cut who tells people I'm born in the USA when they ask where I'm from, so MAGA types often assume I'm one of them.

Unfortunately a lot of immigrants assume the worst about me too, but I didn't choose where I was born.

[lpbk2713]

18. I'd be worried about riding on an elevator with one of those lamebrains.

That's too close for comfort.

[Treefrog]

19. You couldn't pay me to get on an elevator these days.

Masked or not.

[soldierant]

28. Good point. nt

[Evolve Dammit]

21. It is a cult. A death cult. You're in or you're out.

[weissmam]

22. Hooah

[imanamerican63]

24. Sound like my short talk with an anti vaxxer/masker!

They just whither away into a temper tantrum!

[Blue Owl]

26. Well done sir!

[Lady Freedom Returns]

27. Hope you had a n95 mask on!

Being that close to a trumper...

[GulfCoast66]

30. Oh, I can relate. Not just like you because I never served

And would never dream of wearing anything Army on my body.

But I’m a 5’11 white guy in the summer when I wear sandals, cargo shorts, and fishing tee-shirts. In cooler months I’m over 6 foot tall in my boots and dungarees!

I have a short hair cut, normally wear a cap and just just look like a republican. Down to the pick up I drive

It’s always in breweries when they start up I just turn to them and tell them I’m a Social Democrat. They shut up and leave.

Now this only happened a couple of times. Generally most people don’t talk politics to stir up trouble in breweries. They are not bars.

[Elessar Zappa]

31. Happens to me all the time.

I’m a 37 year old with a big beer gut, shaved head and have a beard. People always assume I’m a Trump cultist.

[ecstatic]

35. Lol! nt

[DFW]

32. I have been spared this on this trip to the USA so far, and I leave Thursday.

Just in case I get harassed with "Baa Baa" for wearing a mask, I have my response prepared:

"I find it laudable that you have become fluent in the language of your spouse, but I am not."

[WinstonSmith4740]

38. OMG...that's awesome.

[lagomorph777]

45. You'll be far away before they get it.

Which is probably a good thing.

[DFW]

47. Definitely safer! n/t

[UpInArms]

33. Well done!

[ecstatic]

34. Lol. I love these stories. NT

[llmart]

36. Good for you but...

MAGA fool is redundant. Is there any other type of MAGA?

[Iggo]

39. I hear ya.

People see my white skin and white buzz cut and make wrong assumptions all the time.

[Treefrog]

40. I'm so glad I don't live in these areas where everyone is trying to mind everyone else's business.

Can’t even imagine.

[Snackshack]

41. Yep...

They don’t handle reality based facts real well or any issue discussed beyond bumper sticker detail.

[malaise]

42. Love it

Rec

[EYESORE 9001]

43. I hope to recreate this scenario some day

Guy in MAGAt cap to guy in veteran cap: ‘Thank you for your service.’

Guy in veteran cap: ‘Fuck off, traitor.’

[Cha]

46. WTG, kairos! TY!
