1. When I see RW crap at the checkout

I turn it backwards so other people don't see the front page.

[TreasonousBastard]

3. I thought about carrying a small container of cat pee to pour over them, but...

that would be childish.

(Besides, I might get caught!)

[Arkansas Granny]

7. I don't think I even want to know how you would collect a container of cat pee.

[iscooterliberally]

18. I've seen my veterinarian do it several times.

I just file that under, 'don't try this at home'. Yuck!

[MLAA]

20. I can't believe you would even consider that!

You clearly would need a large container 😬

[reACTIONary]

40. An adhesive sticker that says....

... fake news or national traitor or something like that could be effective.

But it would be wrong!

[OMGWTF]

19. Me too!

[pandr32]

27. I do the same

[Duppers]

28. I "accidentally" drop the whole rack

On the floor.

[AllaN01Bear]

30. i do same.:)

[Mr. Ected]

2. The RW just met the Deep State

And it was staring back at them in the mirror the whole time.

[unblock]

5. in the "mirror" did you say?

https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/politics/

[Fred Sanders]

12. Not Deep State. Deep state of denial about how hate speech should not be part of free speech.

[sandensea]

43. Good point. It's been said the right loves to accuse their opponents of their own misdeeds.

If nothing else, the above montage is certainly proof of that.

[Mr. Ected]

47. That's exactly what I was driving at

Though "Derp State" may be a more accurate description for these hapless fascists.

4. Trump's Friend

Everyone here probably knows it, but the National Enquirer is run by one of Donald Trump's friends. Supposedly, while he was writing those types of stories about Hillary Clinton and her family he was also going around paying women for their stories of sex with Trump so that they would not be able to go to other publications. After he paid the women for their stories refused to put their stories in his magazine. That is reportedly the reason the general public did not see more stories, during the campaign, about Trump's cheating on his wife.

6. Low information voters will fall for anything.

[central scrutinizer]

14. You'd think Batboy's endorsement plus this:

?w=630&crop=0%2C0px%2C100%2C714px&ssl=1

Would have carried the family values crowd's vote

[sandensea]

44. Someone in Florida already beat her to it!

[hlthe2b]

8. I complained enough that my local KingSoopers and Safeway took them off the checkout lines.

My little tiny victory....

[MarcA]

21. Three Cheers for you! Leading by example. n/t

[LeftInTX]

36. That is what needs to be done!

One person can turn them around til they're blue in the face, but with 10 checkout lanes at any grocery store and cashiers tidying things up, it would take about 50 trips to a grocery store per day to keep them all turned around. Unless all checkout lanes are hit at once, then it would probably only require 5 trips to the store per day. Much less how many grocery stores are there in a city?

[True Blue American]

45. I have not seen one person buy that trash in years.

How do they stay in business?

The Enquirer has been exposed as to what they are, garbage, not even fit for the outhouse,if we still had outhouses.

[LeftInTX]

46. It exists cuz the GOP has been paying them for years.

Just having them in aisles is free advertising for the GOP.

[True Blue American]

48. You said It!

And now they are being exposed for the right wing trash they are!

Did you notice how many are leaving Fox news because the smell has become too much?

The cookies are crumbling.

[world wide wally]

9. The original fake news

[Capperdan]

10. Exactly, and continues today

Pecker's Empire, posting more lies than his buddy Donald. Both Con men.

[LanternWaste]

11. The insincere hand-wringing for her health when she almost fainted a couple of years back

certainly illustrated to me who the hacks in the media (and elsewhere) were.

[magicarpet]

13. Those disgusting trash stories in the National Inquirer...

..... should be considered a donation in kind to the trDump presidential election campaign.

I am sure the monetary value of all those trash stories far exceeded the $5,000.00 cap per individual corporation allowed per election cycle.

Did Pecker get immunity for this too or can he be nailed ? Dollars to donuts trDump did not claim this on his FEC election reports.

Drip, drip, drip, - trDump will fully and knowingly committed a myriad of fraud to get his ass in the Oval Office and block HRC by fraudulent means.

[mainer]

15. a single full page, 4-color ad in the Enquirer costs $40,000.

A front cover would be worth far, far more. By running these anti-Hillary stories, Pecker was essentially contributing well over the campaign contribution limits.

49. You know I was getting a digital newspaper

Suddenly they cut it off. I was not subscribing. A few weeks later it was back.

After a talk with my Grandson about how much money companies make when you play their games I realized that is how Newspapers stay in business now. Three forths of the paper is ads. Every time I turn a page they are making money.

[ffr]

16. #1 or #2 News source for tЯump voters.

"Oh, that Hillary, she's corrupt."

No, anyone dumb enough to believe supermarket tabloids are uninformed rubes.

[a kennedy]

17. This just makes me sick.......

[genxlib]

22. There is only one of those that I believe

I think we all had a nervous breakdown on election night

[Cha]

23. Pecker's World.. now I read he's cooperating with

the FBI!

Mahalo, AG!

[SergeStorms]

24. Now THOSE should be....

illegal campaign contributions! Nothing gets the slack-jawed, mouth breathing, booger eating morons of Trump's base more fired up than a National Enquirer cover. That's their bible for chrisakes!

Hillary never stood a chance in that election. All the underhanded, illegal bullshit that was thrown against her and she still beat the Orange Criminal Asshole by 3 million votes. Russia takes care of the electoral votes, et voila! We have a stoopid criminal piece of shit for president.

[alphafemale]

25. My local Publix puts one of those white plastic barriers over it.

Like places do for near porn.

I Love My Publix Folk!

[olegramps]

41. I would like them more if they didn't sell it. Greedy bastards.

[alphafemale]

50. Whatever.

[Freethinker65]

26. Wonder if those were coordinated with the campaign?

Bet the cost was never reported.

What exactly will Pecker divulge?

[lunasun]

31. Who reads this crap? I have never met one person but it must sell to someone !

[nature-lover]

32. Doesn't need to sell. Just being in the checkout lane sends the message to millions.

[lunasun]

33. +++ Good point nature-lover! I never thought about that

[TexasTowelie]

42. My brother.

He's an idiot.

[moose65]

34. Ironic, isn't it?

The supermarket rag that literally defines “Fake News” is defending the shitty president who labels everything else fake. If this were fiction no one would read it, because it’s too outlandish.

[NanceGreggs]

35. When I opened this thread ...

... and saw those headlines, I thought I'd somehow wound up on JPR.

These were exactly the same "news stories" that JPR posters were promoting throughout the 2016 campaign.

But just like the die-hard Trump-humpers, there's no way the progressier-than-thou because we know what's REALLY going on JPR folk will ever admit how easily they were "had".

[ehrnst]

37. I think one could do similar for The Intercept, Jacobin and The Observer.

It might not be a graphic, but a list of headlines would show a pattern....
