Did I miss the civil war 2?
What happened to the great civil war that liberals were going to launch today?
Don't tell me all we got out of it is a woman climbing the Statue of Liberty! |

It always puzzles me why so many Conservatives seem almost desperate for a 2nd Civil War, they do remember that they lost the last one, right? Or is it that they think they can tie it all up 1-1

This morning there was a successful seizure of a MAGA hat by a 30 year old part-time bouncer from a lanky 16 year old with his two 16 year old friends:
https://twitter.com/brxpug/status/10144172579450183684 He already lost his bouncer job. /pol/ has decided that his punishment must be more severe. |

Alex "Gay Frogs" Jones says it.
Fox "All Your Base Are Belong To Us" News repeats it. Therefore... It must be so. |

You misinterpret which civil war it's to be. It's Roundheads and Cavaliers again!

The Libertard Guard gave up without a shot being fired.
Some people just don't know how to throw a war. |

I'd love to laugh about this but since the actual president falls for this kind of rank stupidity I'm having a hard time.

The addiction to magical thinking seems to depend on the buzz one gets from the sensational, mistaking it for being suddenly enlightened. What we need to do is put something like this [] on all the GOP homeschooling blackboards. That oughta hold 'em for a spell, maybe until after the election.
