Idk, the attempt didn't go great. Wake me up if there's another though - might be interested in a t-shirt showcasing that one.

Shit, someone posted a picture of one of those boardwalk screenprinting places with ones for sale less than 2 hours later
Why is anyone shocked by this? Have these people never heard of fucking redbubble?
The raised-fist salute of the MAGA foot-soldiers. They're doing it at the GOP convention tonight.
