Ah, the infamous never-Trumper Ben Shapiro! We should have known.


Good catch, Bo.

I think Erick Erickson would take issue with being described as "in Left Field."

What you should be worried about is your unfortunate fixation on Erick Erickson, a mental foible on your part which you have yet to adequately explain. This guy is not now, nor has he ever been, grist for dinner table conversations across the nation...not by any stretch of the imagination. One is left to wonder why you insist on hanging on his every word (or Tweet), whether correctly attributed or not.

I would imagine that, for you at this point, feigning that understanding now is preferable to having to relive the embarrassment of failing to comprehend the symbols earlier. I get that. Perfectly understandable. It enables you to now position yourself as some sort of self-proclaimed commercial art critic, rather than having to admit that you were a clueless boob who happened to be caught following yet another clueless boob on Twitter.

It's basically clip art with a color change, again this is subjective.

But its fine, ugly but fine.
Someone said three-ring circus, and I kinda like that. At least this time they didn't accidentally grab a deliberate parody off a quick Google search. And TIL that the City of Charlotte is named for the queen of George III. I'll confess the symbolism collision amuses me slightly.

Or maybe, just maybe, both Shapiro and Erickson don't actually like the selected logo?

My post is a bit facetious but something of a warning. The Republican party has been abandoning it's roots (and I know it is painful for some to realize), it does not promote republican values.

No party that actively works at disenfranchising blocks of citizens through various means (for any reason) can claim to be be republican. Trump's personal attacks on US members of congress for their perceived 'otherness' don't reflect the values of 'republican', but the rank and file seem to approve.

You criticize my post, but how do you feel about Trump suggesting we should have a president for life? You recognize a jest in his public statement but judge my post 'scary'?

In light of all of that, your post is so much the scarier.
If it makes you feel better, I find most of what Trump says to be idiotic hyperbole as well.
