The Idiocracy of Trumpamania

Hulk Hogan, Dana White and Kid Rock were the perfect intellectual warm-up acts for the toxic masculinity of Trump's dark, dystopian vision to end American democracy.

It is pointless to fact-check Trump's rambling, 90 minute acceptance speech. Key features were the expected regurgitation of MAGA's bigotry and resentments, Trump's self-aggrandizing lies and praise of authoritarian strong-men, and tirades completely devoid of any clear policy objective other than the mass deportation of millions of American workers. Everything you need to know about Trump's Republican Party is the convention highlight of pro-wrestler Hulk Hogan ripping off his shirt to reveal a Trump-Vance tank top to a cheering GOP crowd.
