Well, well, well. I think it’s time for me to introduce a little game I’d like to call Spot The Trump Supporter When They’re Not Wearing a Make America Great Again Hat.
Sounds hard? Well, for one thing, it shouldn’t be, considering nearly half of those who bothered to vote voted for him to become President so you have about 50/50 shot at getting it right. But ALSO, they’ve just made it stupidly easy.
Like something out of the most confronting of Lynx ads — where teenage boys cover themselves in deodorant on the premise it’ll make girls like them more — Trump supporters are dousing themselves in perfume as a form of protest.
As in, swimming in it, allowing us to smell them from a mile from a mile away.
In light of many big department stories dumping Ivanka Trump’s clothing lines, Trump supporters have voted with their wallet – and their sense of smell – by buying a perfume they have dubbed a “liberal repellent”.
Ugh. Because there’s nothing more annoying than those damn leftie-liberals getting up in your grill about how maybe, probably, definitely locking people out of your country on the basis of race is maybe, probably, definitely, very racist.
Let’s keep them at bay with perfume! That’ll stop their opinions!
Now, Ivanka's self-titles fragrance is sitting at the top of Amazon's top-selling women’s fragrance list.
According to Allure magazine, one of the reviewers wrote: "I really like a soft fragrance, not the kind that comes into a room before you do! The perk of this scent is that it's a liberal repellent as well!!!! Yay!!!!”
Since her father was inaugurated in January, Ivanka Trump’s lifestyle brand has suffered some major blows, with major departments stores like Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus and Belk dropping her clothing line, while T.J. Maxx employees were told to keep her stuff in the back of their stories.
Interestingly, one eagle-eyed reviewer took to the comments of Amazon to point out that 47 per cent of reviews gave the product five stairs, and another 47 per cent of reviewers gave the product one star, and yet the perfume was still rated 4.7 stars.
"I only want to know if these are "fake" reviews. 47% rated 5 stars and 47% rated 1 star. How can average rating be 4.7 stars?" they wrote.
Fishy, eh?

Amazon results clearly the alternative facts of which Trump is so fond of calling out.
At least we can smell them coming now....
I think you're getting confused! "Alternative facts" come from Trump and his spokespeople. They are fine. What Trump hates is "fake news". How can you tell what is "fake news"? Well it's a little difficult to work out, but from what I can gather, here are some tips:
1) Any negative polls are "fake news". That's negative wrt Trump of course. I presume that any positive ones are okay. Not sure about the ones that are neutral.
2) Any news coming from the MSM. Except Fox News. I'm guessing there must be some massive conspiracy out there where 99% of people with journalism qualifications are trying to spread untruths about Trump. Not sure why.
3) Anything coming from Trump or the White House is Gospel. Don't be put off by the spelling mistakes - I'm sure the content has been thoroughly checked for accuracy. And if any of their information is incorrect, Trump, Conway and Spicer have shown they are totally willing to admit that just as soon as any journalist points it out.
Hope that was helpful! We live in a confusing world these days!
As to your points:
1. Neutral polls are also fake.
2. The 99% of journalists spreading untruths about Trump are obviously haters.
3. Nothing incorrect comes from the White House. Any numbers that have been shown to be true (such as how Obama, George W and a number of other Presidents were elected with much larger numbers from the electoral college than Trump) were provided to Trump by other people. It's their mistake. Is that clear? The mistake of OTHER PEOPLE.
Long live Trump and his glorious regime!
Honestly, it can't be long until everyone has to have a copy of one of his books and sing and dance with it, a la Mao's Little Red Book. Only a matter of time I tell you.
Thanks for the clarification Zepgirl! I must admit that these new rules are taking a bit of getting used to! Best way is to switch off the brain and consult Trump's Twitter feed I guess. Although that gets confusing too, if you look back at what he said when Obama was pres...Rules have all changed now!
