Aspiring pop star Lara Trump offers herself up to perform at the right-wing alt Super Bowl halftime show

Well, that should empty whatever venue they pick...

And the headline should start Fake singer Lara Trump.

https://www.the-independent.com/news/world/americas/us-politics/lara-trump-turning-point-half-time-show-b2846697.html

-snip-

Trump, 43, pitched the idea Wednesday on her podcast, The Right View with Lara Trump. Turning Point USA, the conservative activist organization founded by Charlie Kirk, announced last week that it will host an alternative Super Bowl halftime show in February, after Puerto Rican music star Bad Bunny was selected to perform at the NFL event.

The conservative organization has yet to announce exactly who will perform at the event, but the president’s daughter-in-law excitedly offered up a list of hypothetical performers she’d like to see, including country star Chris Stapleton and MAGA rapper Tom MacDonald.

“You know what? You can throw Lara Trump in there. Yeah! That’s right,” the president’s daughter-in-law said with a laugh.

“Imagine how upset people on the left would be if something like that happened,” she added. “It sort of makes me want to offer myself up. I have not been asked, but I’m gonna offer it right now! Let’s see what happens.”

Half time is when we go into the kitchen and
fill our plates and talk about the game.
I missed the Apple ad, the one where a woman
threw a sledge hammer at the screen in the ad.
I was in the kitchen.

I don’t know much about him other than that he was a songwriter for years. People encouraged him to do his our record and it exploded. Country and crossover.

they should get a huge Trump floatie like in the Macy's parades, only with a concave indentation at the bottom, and float it very low, 5 feet above the surface, so that at the close of the show, all the performers, guest political sycophants, Trump idolators and devotees, can scurry out onto the field beneath the grotesque and collectively, symbolically, stick their pointy little heads right up its BUM.

Oughta be a hoot.

tuning his guitar and loading his AR-15.

What could say "Murka" more eloquently than an audience sing-along to Wang Dang Sweet Poontang? Maybe they'll do it as a duet, with the Kid Rock Tabernacle Choir as backup.

(is it possible to get a negative Nielsen rating?)
