Hilarious that the OP is not bright enough to understand this. I bet he thinks the author truly is advising people to build mash potato walls and order 10 Papa John's pizzas to talk about tax policy.

Just further demonstration of the one great truism that we see demonstrated here on C-D every single day: Do not expect sanity from a cultist. Never gonna happen.

The cultists are the ones who would ruin Thanksgiving over their ridiculous beliefs.

Most people I know don't bring politics to Thanksgiving dinner. I would throw them out of my house if they did.
Normally it's turkey and football. This year there will be no football. We are going to do some trap shooting instead weather permitting. This will be my last Thanksgiving in this country so I won't tolerate a political debate in my house.
I can't even imagine showing up at someones house with the intentions of ruining their holiday over politics.
What kind of low life scum would even think of doing that?

That is how the article would be satire. It would start with a false premise, in this case the egregious actions of Trump, and then the cartoon response of ruining Thanksgiving.

So, do you agree with the author's "parody" and agree as to the silliness of the Trump overblown criticism?
I can't read it right now, as it's blocked where I work.

From the excerpts I've seen here (mashed potato wall, Pappa Johns, etc), it's not to be taken seriously. Someone who's read the article can provide additional info for you if needed.

Yes, they will, if we let them. Personally, if I had any in my family I might just build a wall and seat them behind it so they wouldn't ruin it for those of us who are sane. Now that's a wall I could support.

Here's a taste, Cali. I'll let you be the judge:

Quote:
Build a wall out of mashed potatoes. During the football game, order 10 Papa John’s pizzas—the official foodstuff of the alt right—and use them as pie charts to demonstrate who benefits most from the GOP tax plan. Refuse to be alone in a room with your mom, citing the Mike Pence rule. Call your parents by a Donald Trump nickname of your choosing—perhaps Little Rocket Mom or Liddle’ Dad. Insist on setting a place for Robert Mueller, the way Jews do for Elijah on Passover. Wear a coal miner hat for solidarity. Punch a cornucopia right in the mouth.

Truely deranged.
Humor challenged much?

That article is clearly tongue-in-cheek, and I don't have to know the author in order to pick that up by the third sentence.

Besides, I don't need GQ to tell me how to act at dinner. Do you?

Hahahahaha! Thank you! I think it's very clear who is the butt of the joke.
