It’s a great peak at the stupid lengths Trump will go to for pointless petty gestures: planning out in advance how he can make an esoteric, barely legible insult without getting it into an official record. I bet he rode on that high for the rest of his day, as he smugly lapped in the latest crazy take from Fox News or Newsmax.

with barbs like that, people should be shoving trump into lockers and putting gum in his hair.

The margins on restaurants are razor thin. You'd think excluding roughly half the population of customers by making it politically themed would be something even a chud would avoid.

I get that the Chud voters love Trump for the reasons stated previously, and I also get that there are elected congresspeople and Senators who are basically gutter level Chuds at this point as well. But, there's plenty of elected Republicans who are smart enough to see Trump for what he is. To see the danger he poses to not just this country, but to themselves, their wealth, their families. And yet, almost in lock step, they fall in line and do what he demands. It's like an insanity they've all been caught up in.

if they had spine enough to do that they wouldn't be republicans.

Yeah I definitely want to get food from a place that is openly advertising that they don't believe in science and health codes. I'm sure they don't have any weird ideas other than the political ones and would feel totally at ease eating food from there. Luckily, places like that usually close down shortly as the whole thing is just an outlet for some chud to burn out on and restaurants are hard enough to keep going without being owned by the mentally ill. Even big names like Boebert can't keep serving diarrhea sliders forever.

Restaurants are absolute catnip for dunning-krugering midlife crisis actors who think they can do it better because everyone else is stupid.

And not just half the political demographic. There will be Chuds who will instinctively avoid this place because of what they are serving, even despite the Chud branding.

So, an even smaller potential customer base.

Roughly half. I think we tend to massively under estimate the number of right leaning people in left leaning states and vice versa. Plus isn't this in one of much more conservative areas?

It's a pretty old gag - John Landis used to sneak it into some of his movies, for example, there's a cinema playing a film by that name in American Werewolf in London.

Edit: Landis actually does a play on it with "See You Next Wednesday" which is much funnier.

On the other side was FREEDOM FIREWORKS with US flags and red-white-blue everything. They obviously were owned by the same company

this was pages ago but i'm gonna disagree. people like trump are very common, they just don't usually get this far in life. the smug little victory of "you're in my control", the confused head whip around after learning he's been betrayed, the bark of "how dare you make me look weak?", the angry half mumbled practiced insult. All things many people have seen before.
just not on this scale. and, personally, i wouldn't have put up with that poo poo

'See You Next Tuesday' is quite literally an euphemism that was briefly popular on the East Coast in the mid-to-late 70s and fell off relatively quickly in the 80s. The fact that Donald remembered it, and uses it, is honestly pretty telling about the fact that he's perpetually stuck 50 years ago.

He is a pettiness golem, it's how he communicates, just various levels of petty. If he likes you, he's only moderately petty, until he doesn't, then he's super-mega-petty. But I don't think he can exist in a dynamic with other human beings where he isn't constantly being petty at every moment, he exists in a framework of trying to get the 'best deal' out of people and 'win' every interaction.

Relatedly, there was a car mechanic shop near me who would fly Pride flags and put up progressive statements on the LED sign, and while I agreed with everything he was saying, I still thought he was dumb. Because we are in Chud country, and he's pissed off like 60% or more of his potential customers.

I always see these reports but I legitimately do not know what is meant by new jobs. Are these positions that have been filled? How many of them are paying a livable wage, provide insurance, and time off? If you were to break it down into jobs that are actually meeting peoples needs and lifting them out of poverty, this number is probably not actually that impressive, but in reality is pretty dire and bad.

I imagine current cost of living problems kills a lot of the optimism that we'd see come with that. It seems like there's a lot of "first and second estate" spending, which offsets constrained consumer spending. Food and gas are stable, but IMO when other stuff on Mazlow's hierarchy like Rents are out of control, that really boils things under the proverbial 1% ceiling.
