Report: Republican Governors In MAGA solidarity, Will Mint Their Own Currency
Report: Republican Governors In MAGA solidarity, Will Mint Their Own Currency
March 12, 2023 Bake D. Potato Tallahassee, Florida (BNN) “It’s high time red-blooded Americans get MAGA friendly currency back in their pockets,” said Florida Governor Wrong DeSantis at a Smooch Trump’s Ample Rump (STAR) rally in Pennsylvania, adding, “Anybody who wants to do business in God-Fearin’ states can soon do so using what we Republican Governors call ‘Complicit States of America (CSA) cash’.” Instead of Dollars and Cents, the new “Red-State Swag” tradin’ tokens will be offered in currency units of “Rubes” and “Oafs.” At the time of this announcement, the new denominations planned are: 1. A 1.6 Oaf coin, made of recycled shards from broken eBay-purchased Kevlar helmets, with an embossed likeness of Elmer Rhodes III, Supreme Leader of the Oafs, and commemorates January 6, 2020. 2. A Lil’ Rube bill, made of “Gadsen” yellow silk and emblazoned with an engraved likeness of “Coily, the Freedom Sneck,” worth 100 Oafs and commemorates January 6, 2020. 3. A Rube-A-Largo, this bill, worth 10 Lil’ Rubes is made of white golf-shirt polyester, emblazoned with a handsome engraving of Lord Trump proudly pointing at a golf ball in a cup. Again, this grand specimen commemorates January 6, 2020. 4. A MAGA-Rube, worth 10 “Rube-A-Largos,” will be a bright red bill crafted from paper-thin suede “Pleather” and proudly hot-stamped MAGA RUBE. A highly desirable note. 5. A Rube-Uh?-Con ‘reloadable’ note honoring all Republicans, everywhere. This beautiful Rube will be lovingly made of “MAGA-church” quality gold-tone faux satin and can be reloaded at www.ustupidfucksbeenconned.con. 6. Rounding out this first run of CSA currency will be the largest denomination of a BS currency ever offered. This “mail-away special” and very charming and holy bill will be known simply as “The John Baron,”…. made of approximately 4-6 hard pull downs of a Trump property commode single-ply toilet paper, and worth absolutely nothing. Note: Point of contact regarding this press release is Wank Wrinkleskins, Stop 3, Bus 12, Podunk, ‘Merica. “Fuck you, very, very much,” Wank Wrinkleskins replied, wryly, as he farted in DJT’s general direction. ❤️🤗

5. Until you read past the headline, it looks believable.
Until you read past the headline, it looks believable.
Many right wingers would go for it. Some folks started a silver/gold coin currency some years back. It could only be purchased with greenbacks and always at a profit to the seller. The gullible folks thought they were 'putting it to the man', but they were overpaying for the metal value. |

6. This might be better in the Lounge.
It's the perfect place for satire.

11. Anything people might take at face value in the Lounge, where they won't.
Or if here in GD, marked as satire.

13. A satire or sarcasm tag clears up any confusion.
A lot of people only scan headlines. Face value in this case amounts to misinformation and is harmful.
Prefacing your post may detract from the humor, but that's the price pf accuracy. Or you could just post in the lounge, where it would be expected and well-received. |

17. Likewise.
But there are people who don't read the post.
Plus, we have a nifty place where anything goes, and it could use some love. |

18. You might want to edit #3.
On January 6, 2020, people were wondering when Joe Biden would fold his “weak” campaign. A year later, Trumpanzees and the Dumb Caucus tried their version of storming the Bastille (it worked in 1789, less so in 2021).
