My single favorite report was on this one.
For those that don't know, it's a parody.
It is obvious because of "couches", but apart from that, it could have been 100% Fox "News".
Making parodies in modern times is a difficult business. You make up a joke, just to see that reality just overtook you with the pedal to the metal.
It sucks that I was unsure at "unemployed minors," because the party is overtly pro-child labor and that bad at optics.
Honestly the only thing that threw me off is taxes on couches. Otherwise I would've thought this was real
Nah I was completely ready to believe that Fox News would take a joke Walz made about couches (which I knew he did) and claim it was an assault on money and freedom.
That was where I figured it out too.
I honestly didn't believe you until I saw the "Tax on corporate profits, couches"
I really can't tell with this reality anymore
