I’m pretty staunchly anti-MAGA/Trump, but the ear bandage thing doesn’t bother me. Looking dumb is kind of the point. It’s like shaving your head when your friend goes through chemo. A shitty thing happened to them and now there’s an outward facing aspect of it that they can’t change. You do the same thing to yourself so they’re not alone.
That being said, I’m very much looking forward to outliving Trump and hope to revel in some schadenfreude if he ever faces karmic retribution.
Also, the cult is real and terrifying for about a billion reasons outside of the ear bandage thing.
