MAGA Gods Army

[happyhoix]

They got to Texas. Instead of 700,000 righteous patriots, as predicted, it was a couple hundred vehicles parked at a rural ranch where a bunch of grifters sold them MAGA souvenirs.

One attendee was able to visit the actual border and was disappointed there wasn’t a flood of illegals.

As the author says, MAGA is ‘ a comically disorganized and useless parade of con artists and the conned, drifting from one apocalyptic grievance to the next.’

this happens every time.

they love to type on their keyboards, in their fantasy universe. but when it comes to actually grabbing their things and going, they let someone else do it. and that someone else is a couple hundred crazies.

sometimes feelings are not facts. they are just feelings.

MAGA was promised a Texas border 'invasion,' but it wasn't there

Some actually visited the border in nearby Eagle Pass, Texas, and were surprised to not witness the invasion they had been promised.



Convoy-goer Misty Gregory told MSNBC: “It’s not what I expected, but then again I don’t know what I expected. I can tell you it’s not as bad as what I thought, so that’s kind of eye-opening in itself.”

So God’s Army's foot soldiers came, in underwhelming numbers, and accomplished little beyond showing everyone how tragically gullible they are and making the locals twitchy. That’s MAGA in a nutshell: loud, threatening and, in the end, impotent.

Trump won the presidency in 2016, and he hasn’t won a thing since. He’s the face of this supposedly forceful political movement, but the movement mirrors its creator, a loudmouth con artist who overpromises and rarely delivers a thing.



The wall? Mexico paying for the wall? The border crisis fixed? Nope, nope and nope.


MAGA Gods Army sounds more like an oxymoron than jumbo shrimp. If I were a con artist, I probably could make money off them by starting a disaster related travel agency.

I remember when they tried to disrupt Washington DC by driving around the beltway every day.  No one in DC noticed their caravan because of all the normal traffic.

They were camped out at a raceway in Hagerstown, since it was the off season for racing, and driving into DC every day. They weren't even noticeable in Hagerstown because they just stayed at the raceway - my husband works in Hagerstown and he didn't even know they were there until I showed him a newspaper article. Eventually most of them left because it got cold out.

when the going gets tough, MAGA goes home.
