      The “hot lady” is Sage Steele acting as moderator.

      Trump kept calling her Paige. She chose to ignore those multiple mistakes.

      You just love to see it. While asked about cognitive decline, Trump responded with these gem quotes such as “I’ve got no cognitive.” As well as stating he “aced two cognitive tests, no one’s ever done that before.”

          Yep. She’s one of them. I’m still baffled that any woman would willingly be MAGA. Goes to show how powerful propaganda, manipulation, hate, and fear are. Repubs did a fantastic job fortifying their control over decades, installing a dictator, and sowing doubt and distrust with current election practices. Trump is one of many threats.

          Edit: Blows my mind, really. She’s youngish (40s or so, I’m not willing to Google her), black, articulate, educated, and a woman. Just makes zero sense why she would be MAGA when that party wants to suppress her. Literally so confused, but yep she’s deeply MAGA. Why would a woman, a black woman, support the racist group that wants to enslave or kill her? Leopards will definitely eat her face.

            There are many MAGA grifters with similarly confusingly contradictory identity going back to the start and the reality is that they’re there because capital interest outweighs all else.

            MAGA grifts seem incredibly lucrative, especially if you’re the sort of Milo Yionopolis, Clarence Thomas, Candace Owens, Ben Shapiro ass, member of a group they’re not too fond off. I’m pretty sure MAGA grifts are the most lucrative social grift currently, it’s free money and the discourse drives the engagement so its a self feeding loop for an influencer or content creator, its self perpetuating in other ways too so if you start its not easy to stop.

            They also don’t care that they’re helping to do the things that they do because they believe the leopards won’t eat her face in the end because she was one of the good ones. Ofcourse bigots rarely make distinctions when riled up in to a frenzy, so they definitely could and likely will get facey eaten. But assuming she is actually getting paid, she will become ever more privileged in their new society than she would be in their new society without that money. But also, if she’s been privileged with wealth long enough she could align with wealth interests solely, and ignore (bewilderingly) all the other policys of MAGA.

            Yesterday I read a thread on that bird site from a guy adressed at black communities, writing about Lee Atwater and the “Southern Strategy” which I never heard of. That guy basically wanted to reinstate segregation but more hidden, was an adviser to Reagan and wanted to help him into office by evoking the latent racist tendencies of moderate reps in a way they could still feel good about themselves. OP posted pictures of Atwater with a young Roger Stone and a young Trump and drew parallels to today. He warned all POC that the same thing will happen again. I hope that it was only a preventive measure and that in reality black people voting Trump are a tiny minority when they got a non-white, non-racist person right there running for office.
