The pranksters claimed ‘mainstream media in the UK wouldn’t touch the story’ to get Mr Carlson’s attention

This article is somewhat disjointed, but still a fun idea.

        You joke, but this was possibly a surprisingly smart callback to the fall of the USSR when Boris Yeltsin visited American grocery stores in 1989. Unlike Yeltsin, though, The World’s Oldest Boy-Idiot didn’t bother visiting more stores for even the mildest investigative reasons.

        For a guy who is always “just asking questions,” Fucker Charlatan has absolutely zero curiosity. If this professionally competitive shit-eater ever said anything of substance, I’d be worried that his shocked and angered discovery of - checks notes - cheap groceries in an invading country could actually mean something to anyone other than the dumbest 13% of his base.

      The part that most amused me was that those gorgeous subways were built by the Soviets.

        Or how flabbergasted he was that you could get a cart of groceries for $100.

        Like he’s shopped for himself in two decades, lol

        He had never heard of putting a coin into a slot to get a shopping cart. A system that is at every Aldi in America.

          Ugh, that’s spreading too now, it’s more than Aldi’s.
