We've all heard and used the traditional phrases ...

... that describe stupid people: Dumb as a rock, dumb as a bag of hammers, too stupid to come in out of the rain,
et cetera.

Given today's state of political affairs, shouldn't the term "Dumb as a MAGAt" be the more popular terminology?

It's a phrase that more succinctly defines stupidity, and encompasses the wide range of idiotic bullshit being espoused/believed by Trump-humpers across the nation.

Just a serving suggestion ...

Sometimes “stupid” n “moron” but mostly I say it in traffic to my windshield. I don’t wanna get shot.

Also throw Tucker Carlson for trying to use the J6 videos to say the insurrection was a peaceful demonstration. As if the whole nation hasn't seen the videos live or on newscasts over and over and over.

How have you been doing? I have missed you.
I know you can't fix stupid but I send a wish every day that we could.
Cheers.
