I've used this term MANY times before, but never nearly as appropriately as now.....ASSHAT!!!!!!

Wait, what?

This tool was actually convicted, put in prison, lost his right to vote and is now running for office? How dis? We’re all caught up in TFG’s violation of Section 3 of the 14th, with certain voices saying, well he didn’t because he was never charged, convicted, blah blah.

This guy actually was all those things and he’s whining because the Feds kept his stuff he did the crimin’ in? The mind boggles. Although it shouldn’t. This is the same idiot who demanded, and received, organic food in prison. Water and hard crusts of bread are organic, aren’t they?

I've been thinking about this for a few hours and, I don't see why he can't call up Amazon in person and get another one, specifying "technically acrylic" if it means so much to him. See what I mean?

But it isn't THAT hat. The hat with the power. The jolly, candy-like hat what he put his special shaman magic juice into (ew). A new one might look the same to us plebes, but *he* would know. It just wouldn't be the same. Dude.

I suppose that's so. It wouldn't be purely evil. And would lack that aura of stupidity we all noticed at the time. Poor guy-- I sure hope he gets it back. And wears it every single day! I saw a video of him or someone just like him in such a hat riding a bike in a parade but a random person somehow made him suddenly fall off and it's so sudden! I'm sorry to say it's extremely funny. He looked so triumphant one second before.

I see the hat as the centerpiece in a far future Smithsonian Institution exhibit on "The Insurrection of 2021- The Beginning of the End of Democracy: When Stupid Took Over."

I have to say there’s a great synergy today between the Cowardly Lion on the Hawley post and this one with the hat. Really bringing the A game for the last day of Cat Week. I appreciate that so much!

That cat looks marvelous in his hat. I have loved cat pic week, so nice to see cats instead of the horribles. What do we need to do to get another cat week?

Shouldn't the Arizona Secretary of State's office hand Mr. Shaman a copy of the Fourteenth Amendment and tell him to politely go fuck himself?

Doesn't apply. Shaman wasn't an officeholder before the insurrection. The 14th was very narrowly written (unfortunately) to eliminate former statesmen from reclaiming their offices.

We do not care about hat.

In the kind of fascist dictatorship this asshole, et al, want to turn the US into he would never so much as see the light of day again *at best*, let alone get his cosplay stuff back.

Unbelievable guys like this are out already; talk about a fucking slap on the wrist.

My tatanka cosplay costume can't ever be complete without hat!

I used to argue with nitwits on Breitbart about how revolting the modern conservative movement has become until stubbornly coming to the conclusion that MAGA is a cult and no amount of logic can pierce the veil of bullshit and delusion they hide behind.

But one pattern was always telling. Everything they call you in an effort to insult you is a projection of themselves. If they say “move out of your mom’s basement”, guess what? They live with their parents. If they say “get a job”, guess what? They do some low skill job like operate a forklift. If they try to insult your masculinity with gay jokes like some edgy 15 year old, guess what? They’re repressing homosexual tendencies and hate themselves for it. If they call you a pedo, guess what’s on their record, something to do with inappropriate behavior involving a minor.

True to form, the QAnon Shaman lived with his mom, literally in her basement. And when he was caught, because how hard can it be, he gave press interviews on January 6th, his mom had to come to where he was being held and beg his jailers to feed him his vegan diet so his little tum-tum didn’t get upset.

Everything is projection with them, always.
