Gives a whole new meaning to the old expression "Spitting in the wind," doesn't it.

The guy who started this was joking, 54,000 mooks took him seriously. But he was outdone by the 60,000 people who signed up to aim all their electric fans at the hurricane and blow it away.

Probably a mix of those who thought it was funny and those who really believed it.


Speaking of crazed conspiracy theories Twitchy had a great comment summary on gcomeau's favorite website.

Pfft, that's minor league for Jones.

My favorite may still be that NASA is running a child slavery ring on Mars.


(And just a reminder... Trump has previously taken the position that he considers Infowars to be a more reliable news source than the "Fake News" mainstream media. The guy who is president of the country. That guy. )

President "FAKE NEWS!" just tweet ranted about another nation violating a treaty based on a false news report that used old recycled footage of a missile launch he didn't bother to check with his intel agencies, just saw on the internet/fox news and decided he was off and running.


The US has been one long running bad joke to the rest of the world for the last 7 months and it isn't getting better. Because Trump *doesn't learn*. Ever.
