After an investigation spanning two years and costing over $7,000,000, the MegaMAGA Institute
of Truthiness reluctantly conceded that the assumption underlying all that is MAGA has been scientifically disproved.
B. S. Daley, Director of the Institute ( no degree, but has done a lot of internet research ), said "The primary focus of our research was the 'Apple to Banana' Transition Demonstration. Over the course of 23 months, we paid operatives to repeatedly call apples bananas. We used a wide variety of people---men, women, children, elderly---all sizes, shapes and colors. We even had apples called bananas in 87 different languages and dialects.
Nothing worked. Not one apple transitioned into a banana or was even slightly altered in shape or color.
It is, therefore, our conclusion that simply SAYING something is so does nothing to prove it. Proof---what some have called 'evidence'---is essential."
Mr. Daley concluded by announcing that he has taken a position on Republican Congressman George Santos' staff as an advisor.
