"It's a trap!" (DC Toddler Convoy)



Tweet text:

Ron Filipkowski
@RonFilipkowski
Organizer of ‘People’s Convoy’ explains to them tonight why they’re still stuck in MD. He says he scouted DC and there was “a trap” waiting for them. Then says they are going to “try diplomacy,” and if that doesn’t work “take the next step.” From @FordFischer

Didn't get you were talking about the one in Ukraine.

There were several separate ones in the US that converged. That's what I thought you were referencing.

They are going to use diplomacy to do what?
They already have the right not to wear a mask.

They need to sign up for Ukraine and do something useful with their lives.

Big city is scary? Highways can be complicated and anything not easy is a trap? Circles bad?

They're already on an endless loop of stupidity; what's a few laps more?

They sound so normal until you listen to what they are actually saying and watch what they are doing. They left home for this nonsense? They could have used their time and money and gone on a real vacation.

Like Nancy Pelosi has the time to worry about you self-important dolts and your idiotic stunts. Y'all are a bunch of jokes.

This country has a serious mental health problem.

I think they were just scared after a reconnaissance run down I-95 during the week.
First time I had to go to DC in the 90's, I thought I could rent a car to get around after the meetings... After three hours in traffic, I got off and turned the car in to the nearest rental office I could find in the yellow pages, and took the metro back to the Navy Yard where I was staying.
And that was in the 90's. Before smart phones.
It's best to pick up the rental car once you get off at the last Metro station outside DC in the direction you are going if you want to play tourist over the weekend.

check license, registration and insurance, check for outstanding warrants, bring in the drug and firearm dogs to do a sniff through. Make them squirm a bit.
