Both made me laugh. Dunno why but maybe a sign of how defective I am?
As for Barron... Amusing but I have the same problem with the use of Barron as I do with Roy's Trump. With the latter, Trump's written as having an IQ at least 5-10 points higher than reality. He sounds too smart. (I acknowledge that I probably underestimate Donnie's intelligence. That said, if he's a magnitude smarter than I believe, he's still a fucking moron.)
As for Barron, he has "learning disabilities" per someone I know who I trust on the subject. My rule is to have no more respect for him and his condition and his parents do. When they respect his situation, show a little love, I'll be happy to provide full respect for him and his privacy. Of course, both parents can't do that -- maybe Melania can if Donnie paid her enough but that's not happening. So till then, my compassion gets directed elsewhere. You know, to the more deserving. I mean, Barron clearly has issues, but he's going to be pretty wealthy someday. I'm saving my limited compassion for those outside 1%er bubbles.
So, I guess, Roy's Barron is far removed from reality-Barron but I have no real issues with that.
Is it wrong that I'm okay with Barron once he slugged Kirk?
Very nice, Roy, I needed that. Someone yesterday noted that the wingnut sugar daddies paying kids to accuse the left of being paid to protest is kind of perfect Trumpian politics.
I like this development for Barron: the punditry had this weird fantasy going that he was a hostage, when really he is in development to conform to his father's patterns. He's a snapshot of DJT at whatever age he's supposed to be.
I knew we were going to get a chapter on this from you as soon as I read the story in the Post. Kirk is a despicable character and has one of the most punchable faces in Trumpworld, and that's saying something. Perhaps only Jared and Trump himself are more powerful fist magnets.
Welp, you've done it now. The only unpardonable sin in American politics: mentioning Barron Trump. They'll be coming for you now. I've enjoyed your work. RIP Roy.
Since his late Turning Point co-founder* plucked him right out of high school, I'd love to see mentions of this über-grifter always written as "high-school graduate Charlie Kirk," especially as he gads about chapters on college campuses. He's one of the worst, but since he's harvested millions from right-wing moneytits, I expect he'll be gunning for Marco Rubio's job soon.
It was a joy to see him cold-cocked (and possibly stomped on?) by America's Future.
Saw the original article in WaPo. This send up is pretty good. In the giant ocean of social media exchanges, I really have to wonder how much of an impact this kind of transparently stupid propaganda operation is likely to have. I don't read this crap so I'll take your word for it that it is this kind of incoherent garbage.
The biggest challenge is even getting young people to vote. Most of them face huge structural obstacles - designed explicitly to make it as hard as possible to vote - rather than ideological messaging. Also, aside from a relatively small number of dedicated MAGAts, most young people who are actually engaged find Trump and his minions horrifying.
But, interesting your take on Barron, about which we know next to nothing, I think, in stark contrast to Sasha and Melia, Chelsea Clinton or even W's party girl daughters. (I don't include the older Grotesque Trio of Trump kids.) Your take seems to be that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree and that Barron is as much of a monster as his Dad. Interesting.
It's thrilling to see Barron depicted as a vile Harkonnen scion, all the more so because the few glimpses we get of him show a tall, troubled lad who just might deserve one's sympathy. His father is Donald Trump and his mother is Melania Trump. His step-siblings are Don, Jr. Eric, and Ivanka. The poor bastard never stood a chance.

Every parent of more than one teenage boy knows there is a critical mass of the same which will create pubescent fusion. Your depiction is quite spot
on but needs more farts and derogatory comments about thots.

"When I’m president I’ll fuck you all up!"
I give Barron 50/50 chances of being President someday - after he assassinates his Uncle Don Jr. in a bloody coup.
Yep, I can see it. Hehe, thanks for the morning funnies Roy.

"BARRON reaches into his jacket pockets and throws wads of cash at the center of the table."
Well, at least the old man taught him how to settle a lawsuit against him. Needs an NDA.
Say what you will, I'm glad to see this evidence of Trump folks keeping their promise to bring outsourced jobs back to America--from Romania in this case https://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/ny-facebook-troll-farm-romania-fake-accounts-removed-black-trump-20200807-4syg4wga7fdvznldruc3cfxgdq-story.html

Honestly, you had me at "Juicy Juice Teasers".
