In a characteristically rambling post on Truth Social, Mr Trump said that the indictment ‘hoax’ was the fault of misfits – and mutants

Considering how X-Men has long been an allegory for queer identity and the attempted oppression thereof, I hope trans people will take this as the unintentional compliment he didn’t intend it to be. In this world where conformity is choking the planet and multiplying suffering, being different is a superpower.

Fuck Trump with a fork along with anyone who supports him.

I just have to tell you your comment really struck a chord with me.

This is beautifully worded. Keep fighting the good fight and spreading your kindness :)

Fucking stupid republican probably doesn’t realize the irony in calling trans people Marvel comic “mutants”. The mutants were mistreated by conservatives in those books and rounded up and sent to camps. A holocaust survivor championed their cause leading many to fight back against the human Nazis.

Oh…oh my fucking god. I thought that Trump couldn’t get any lower in my estimation, but here we are.

Going lower than anyone thought was possible is one of the few things Trump excels at.
