Like the guy with the carbon fiber submarine. Every engineer told him it couldn't be done, so he kept firing them until he had a staff of young, inexperienced engineers who would do what they were told, and just collect their paychecks.

Now their boss is dead, and there are no more paychecks.

Remember in Trump 1.0 when he visited some wounded soldier, and hinted around for the guy's Purple Heart, and the guy gave it to him? Trump said "Ive always wanted one of these," and kept it.

They've got a warehouse full of them. They made zillions during WWII to prepare for the invasion of Japan, which never happened. They've never had to make a new one since. All he'd have to do is tell Hegseth he wanted one, and he have it on his desk in 30 minutes.

But it's more fun to lift one from a wounded soldier.

Trump is absolutely incapable of distinguishing between having a thing and having won that thing.

He's the kind of dweeb that they invented participation trophies for, just so they won't scream "CHEATER!" at every event.

You mean a Cold War? Like we've been having since WWII?

Yeah, we know that. America thought it was over when the Iron Curtain fell in 1989, and stopped, but Russia never quit. This isn't new, these Dumb Apes either paid or forced some kid to do their homework in private school, and never cracked a history book in their lives. They are profoundly, virtuosically ignorant.

I'm bad enough at guitar to be effective!

Which is why MAGA will die with Trump. It's a Cult of Personality. Nobody really believe in the philosophical tenets of MAGA, because they are entirely Trump's whim.

Once he assumes room temperature, the knives will come out, and the backstabbing will begin, and since these psychos are so narcissistic that they will never surrender to each other, and they will keep backstabbing until they're they've ended themselves.

Participation trophies were invented for dipshits like this.

They know that Trump is just going to keep the money, and have the US government pay for it all.

Also, it's one thing to support him, it's not even so bad to give him some money now and then, but he is demanding an enormous commitment, and they know that about the only thing you can trust a MAGA government to do is royally fuck it up.

They also see the writing on the wall, MAGA's days are numbered, they will be undone by their own virtuosic incompetence. Short term investment for quick gains is one thing, but long term investment in MAGA is a very bad idea.

You can beat the charge, but not the ride.

Most drummers are single. They aren't great conversationalists on account of being deaf, and kind of dumb, too.

Just kidding, drummers are cool. I wanted to be a drummer, but the parents were a hard NO.

You're describing top-of-the-line gear. I'm a guitarist, and I'm not showing up with my best axe. I'm going to use that old beater that I don't mind using as a weapon if necessary. We aren't look for a nuanced, insightful performance here, just loud and obnoxious, and you can easily do that with a shitty instrument.

Make every other guest complain, check out, commit to never staying in a Hilton again, etc. Make Hilton pay a price for supporting MAGA.

And if I work there, I'm spitting in their drinks, pissing in their soup, using ground beef that was left out all night, leaving a hot dog under the bed to spoil, not changing their towels, etc. Whatever I can think of to make their stay unsatisfying.
