During the Trump Boat Parade this Saturday on Lake Travis in Austin, Texas, the Travis County Sheriffs Office confirmed that they had received multiple calls for boats in distress and that a number of them had sunk.
At least three boats went down in 30 minutes, according to ABC News.
While its clear that the boats were likely overtaken by the wake of other boats speeding along the lake, thats not stopping some from floating their own conspiracy theories about what happened, namely pro-Trump writer and Christian conservative Carmine Sabia.
The likelihood of all of these boats sinking at the Trump Boat Parade by accident is microscopic, he tweeted. We are dealing with terrorists.

(19,204 posts)small craft warnings should have been - and probably were - issued, but no one is going to tell a MAGAt to stay off the water in their dangerously overloaded boats with 3-5ft. waves! Maritime laws are for liberal p#ssies who don't have a great leader like Donald J. Trump to worship. It's abundantly clear to sane people that these morons see conspiracies no matter which way they turn, and absolutely nothing could be their own stupid fault for doing extra-stupid shit.

- antifa
- terrorists
- Democrats
- liberals
- people of color
- etc
Never your own fault though!
Lovely way to live!
Did they think that up by themselves? No, Trump gave them that idea!
(And once you develop that line of thinking, there is little chance of you improving yourself, or becoming more in tune with reality. Sounds like Trump, really. This is TSS - Trump Stupidity Syndrome!)
