Don’t forget Ben Shapiro failed at writing movies before he became a pundit.
I thought he'd been in the fascist grifter industrial complex since he was a literal child?
Yeah since he was 17. So I guess he failed the movie thing while doing that.
The most childish thing about Ben is that when Hollywood people ( grown ass adults) rejected the scripts he wrote (as a child) he decided to grow into an evil adult as a form of revenge.
Idk if he grew into it. If youve read any of his fiction books, then you know he was probably trying to write weird conservative propaganda movies in the same vein as Ayn Rand.
I couldn’t have brought myself to read it so thanks for sharing that with me
Its actually on the border of “so bad its good” man. One of the bad guys is a black guy who owns a barber shop that he sells crack out of that makes a deal with a democratic president to become a politician and through DEI and drug legalization and other liberal ideas becomes the dictator of New York. The catalyst of which is a police officer shooting a black child, which Ben bends over backwards to make this dude seem like the victim in the situation. He fails massively, because hes such a bad writer that this golden cop who’s a child killer that HE MADE UP AND PUT IN HIS PERFECT IMAGINARY SITUATION still is indefensible and inexcusable.
Also theres a bunch of motorcycle chapters and Shapiro ONLY refers to them as “hogs.” Like even in the narration. It’s cringey as all fuck man.
Not literal child cause his family is likely not as rabidly fascistic as him. They are all involved for generations in the arts. Likely liberal chuds with light progressive tendencies.
Whatever happened to the good old failed artist to graphic designer pipeline?
A Trump twitch stream would be something else, can we get some trumpPoggers going in chat
Does truth social have it's own streaming service? He should go live on weeknights and host a talk show just spilling the tea and gossiping, his element.
Trump locking himself in the Oval Office and blasting phantom of the opera comes to mind
He's go big plans for the abandoned Kennedy Center.
He could go on a 10 minute rant about Love Never Dies, the sequel to Phantom with more eloquence and articulation than every single one of his speeches combined.
Failed theater kid
The Apprentice was just him trying to get back into showbiz where his true heart belongs.
I guarantee there was an NBC exec who pitched him to replace Leno.
He avoided the Weinstein files by getting in the Epstein files
We could have been freed from Trump if he had just not fucked up every business he ever had.
This just proves the arts requires more skill than real estate. It's apparently much harder to fail upwards in musical theatre than owning land. Who woulda thought 
Alternate ending to The Producers where the scheme actually works.
He managed to make more money with a flop than a hit, just in a roundabout way.
is that why he's so zesty? he's a failed broadway producer??
"{京剧|jīngjù}, folks. Some people call it Peking opera, but it's better than opera. It's very impressive. The music is live, the actors are handsome, and the singing. The singing is very difficult, and many say it takes more skill than opera. They're doing kung fu, they're doing acrobatics, they're singing. I tried buying a {京剧|jīngjù} troupe in Beijing, but they kept saying "Donald, we can't do a Chinese version of the Pirates of Penzance, the cast only know the classics" so I said "Ok, well I'll take my idea and take it to Broadway". And that's how I got into real estate."
Reporter: "uhh, Mr President, the question was "Why did you "pre-emptively" carpet bomb Andorra?""
Andorra always sounded african to me, and its a tax heaven for spanish and french dickheads so it kinda has it coming anyways
Andorra is basically Liechtenstein without the blackfacing. I wish i was joking, but i am unfortunately 100% serious.
So Andorra is incrementally less of a shithole backwater than Liechtenstein? The bar to clear is all the way down in hell, here.
What do you mean blackfacing?
They start their carnival / mardi gras season with a custom known as "Ruassla" where kids blacken their faces with soot. Here's a historic photo of the practice: https://historisches-lexikon.li/images/9/9a/Braeuche_Ruassla.jpg
don't worry, i got you covered
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
The Andorrans yearn for freedom, President Trump please liberate Andorra from the twin princes and establish a liberal democracy.
Does anyone have a link to the clip I wanna see this
It might be this?

Bannon keeps trying to talk about Covid and trump clearly just wants to talk phantom
His voice in that clip is entirely different, no tangents even.
Dude ive seen it but the last couple times ive looked for it i havent been able to find it. If anyone finds it ping me please!
Meanwhile the left is filled with failed law students.
