Heard someone going on and on in Costco about how Trump is going to be re-elected.

Or maybe it was re-instated. I didn't really listen. I've decided that if this comes up some day and I'm a captive audience, I'm going to say, "No he won't. He's dead."

"Go on Youtube and look at Trump appearances in 2020 and 2021 and compare. It's so obviously not the same guy. Do you really believe he could have been gravely ill with COVID back in 2020 and then just walk out of the hospital a couple of days later? That's when he died."

I got lots more.

Go sell crazy some place else. We're all stocked up here -- Jack Nicholson, "As Good as It Gets,"

Oh really? What's the date? I'll accept a "no later than" if you don't want to be tied down to just one date. When will this happen by? Let's write it down. Good. Fill in the date when you claim that the former guy will be president once again. Sign here. Print your name. And I'll put a hundred bucks against that proposition. Hey, where are you going? I guess you're not quite that confident after all.

some ragged Teabagger was spouting off at a flea market. Obama was going to declare and emergency and put in Marshal law, blah, blah blah.
I said to him and the crowd, you don't really believe that crap do you. He said Oh yes it's going to happen. I said I'll bet you a thousand bucks it won't. we can let someone else hold the money. He said no and I said I thought so. Everyone started laughing at him.

Next time tell em to put up or shut up..

If someone turned you in for stating he's "dead". Their warped minds would see it as a threat.

Rush Limbaugh, of course.

My preacher told me Rush is just like Jesus, he will arise from the dead and sit at the right hand of TFG.

And I heard at my evangelical church, so it must be true.
