Why Is Everyone All Pissed Off?

Take a look at the guy on the left. Now take a look at the guy on the right. Notice any difference between those two guys and the guy in the middle? The guy in the middle is pissed off. And every time the guy in the middle opens his mouth, he sounds pissed off.

Last night I watched a bit of the ‘protest’ that the Young Republicans organized in front of the courthouse in New York City where Trump is supposed to do a perp walk at some point over the next couple of days. Maybe there were 200 people standing around, maybe a few more or a few less.

The announcer for something called the Right Side Broadcasting Network said the crowd had ‘somewhat thinned out’ by 5:30 P.M., — he was being polite. He did manage to grab one fiftyish lady wearing her MAGA hat, who told him that she was ‘really upset’ because the border wasn’t being protected, the prices in her supermarket were sky high, the pipeline had been taken cancelled (the announcer slipped the word ‘gasoline’ into her comment at that point) and the country was just falling apart.

This lady’s comments were interrupted several times by a voiceover from Mike Lindell who is now running a two-for-one sale on his pillows, his sandals, and his socks. But the look on her face was all you needed to see to get the message that she’s out there supporting Trump because she’s really pissed off.
