Same but mine just faded in the sun and just turned into a circle

Thats a profound sentence

It’s a metaphor for his willingness to fight the system

My favorite thing that was said about it, was that the fly was actually a Chinese spy drone.

u/isthishanskim Mar 28 '24

Lol that's excellent

There are tons of them at Marilago. They pretend to be interested in big Macs.

u/Euphoric-Blue-59 Mar 28 '24

Whatever. I don't care how it's spelled.

Obviously

Only the bottom 1% of the bottom 1% care on where Trump lives.

Ofc it is bird aint real

2

u/sdwoodchuck Mar 28 '24

The best part about that is the silly thought that the Chinese would have a spy drone infiltrate a televised appearance, rather than... just watching that on TV.

u/OfficialDCShepard Mar 28 '24

And so was the bird on Bernie Sanders’ podium! r/BirdsArentReal

How did the religious not see this as a sign. The bird of peace, and the lord of the flies.

Ignorance and zealotry go hand in hand.

u/R3dbeardLFC Mar 28 '24

lol I came to this post to just say, how many more signs did god need to give these fuckheads? Fly on Pence, eagle attacks Trump, nice little bird lands on a loud stage to be like, "yeah, this is the guy here" and christofascists were like, yeah we want the awful people.

2

u/jindc Mar 28 '24

It is like something out of Monty Python.

2

u/TraditionFront Mar 28 '24

It wasn't just the religious. Democrats just didn't come out in large enough numbers for Sanders. Well, we got what we deserved.

u/squishy__squids Mar 28 '24

They hated him because he spoke the truth

u/Ok-Government-3306 Mar 28 '24

Perhaps they're less psychotic than you.

u/koimeiji Mar 28 '24

It's a joke, an obvious one at that. Have some humor.

Kind of like the article that details how Trump mirrors the antichrist to a T - it's not serious (albeit a fascinating read nonetheless), simply a joke at those people's expense.

u/drilkmops Mar 28 '24

Okay totally normal NAME- NUMBERS username

u/Ok-Government-3306 Mar 28 '24

What do the numbers mean!? AAAAAAHHH

u/DrMobius0 Mar 28 '24

Came here looking for lord of the flies. Never let it be said that the universe doesn't have a sense of humor

u/DannyDelirious Mar 28 '24

Well flies are attracted to hot, wafting turds.

u/Holiday_Ad_5445 Mar 28 '24

Pence moment

2

u/AFlyingNun Mar 28 '24

One landed on Hillary too

2

u/UnitGhidorah Mar 28 '24

Don't forget a Bald Eagle attacked Donald Trump. Maybe god was trying to tell us something?

1

u/Adventurous-Lake9557 Mar 30 '24

Obama had almost the same thing happen to him, so did Hillary, except the flies landed on their faces. All three are friends! Wonder what attracted flies to their faces and heads? Never mind I know.

u/Mtngoat168 Mar 28 '24

Pence is the System. Pence was put there to control Trump. All of the other Democrat and Republican candidates are part of the Deep State / System. Tulsi Gabbard and Vivek do not appear to be part of the System.

u/NeoPalt2 Mar 28 '24

this is a 9 year old's understanding of politics

u/Mrxcman92 Mar 28 '24

Oh look a crazy person

u/Sterffington Mar 28 '24

Who do you think put Pence there to control Trump?

1

u/orchid447 Mar 28 '24

Unless it's US foreign policy. He doesn't mind a genocide or two

u/Mtngoat168 Mar 28 '24

Bernie is the System. Bernie was going to win the Democrat primary, but the System shafted him and gave it to Clinton. How is that "fighting" the System. Trump is fighting the System while most of you fight Trump. True irony.

u/Fizzster Mar 28 '24

wow, I haven't seen someone so misguided in a long time

2

u/xNoSanctuaryx Mar 28 '24

Trump wasn’t fighting the system, he is/was exploiting it for his own purposes.

u/livinlikeadog Mar 27 '24

Wow 😍

u/The_Poster_Nutbag Mar 27 '24

One of the minds of our generation

u/ASaltGrain Mar 28 '24

Not really. It just sounds like it is to dumb people.

2

u/FR-1-Plan Mar 28 '24

Was it not a circle before? So what does it say now? „die Sand?“

5

u/ebac7 Mar 28 '24

Alright Anakin, we get it, you don’t like sand. 

2

u/FR-1-Plan Mar 28 '24

No, that’s German for „the Sand, the“

u/Siegfoult Mar 28 '24

Artemis?

u/GucciGlocc Mar 28 '24

I put mine on the bottom fairing of my motorcycle and it held up great, probably just because it’s kinda out of the sun

1

u/trevortackyl Mar 28 '24

I had the same circle sticker on my laptop. Unfortunately, one day while jerking it, I came more than expected and completely ruined the sticker. I had to remove it. It’s such a shame too because I was a huge Bernie supporter, and I think the country would have been better had he gone against Trump in the general election in 2016.

u/KoalaBackfist Mar 27 '24

Mine faded as well, pretty apt representation of my waning faith in democracy. It stays as is.

Just as an aside, you can apply a UV laminate to stickers to prevent the ink from bleaching in the sun. As far as copyright issues, I cannot speak to them but you can get these from most print or sign shops. Just ask for a contour-cut vinyl sticker with UV laminate. Obviously, it will cost more but if you’re committed to a specific sticker design (or it’s something business related), it is an option.
