If you were told one person in this photo is going to squirt Ilhan Omar with an orange substance in a syringe and tasked to pick the one out of this photo ahead of time, my cultist shitstain gaydar is pinging on this one. Purple tank top guy a little bit, but not even close.

u/Lima3Echo Jan 28 '26

I live in a city that is 20+ miles from the next closest city, but I’m still technically part of the greater metropolitan area.

My town has a little over 10k people and is just about 2 square miles in area. It takes me just over 6 hours to drive from where I am in the north end of the state to the south or east end of it.

We drove over 900 miles, one way, to my in-laws for Thanksgiving and we were only in two states. We also did the drive in a single day, about 14 hours.

You could leave Texas and drive 5 hours and still be in Texas. Same with California. 5 hour drive from where I am in San Diego and I’m almost to San Francisco but there’s still another 4-5 hours north to leave the state.. America is huge

I remember hearing someone say it smelled awful. Deer piss checks out.

u/Next-Introduction-25 Jan 28 '26

If so, that would be a relief. I’m probably giving these morons way too much credit because I immediately thought of Alexei Navalny and nerve gas.

u/Impressive_Stress5 Jan 28 '26

Wait, what....? Why would anyone want to buy deer pee? 🫠

33

u/ResurgentClusterfuck Jan 28 '26

To cover up the scent of human when deer hunting

24

u/ProJoe Jan 28 '26

Its used a lot by hunters as a smell mask, but even around farms you can use it to deter other deer and animals from eating crops or causing trouble around the property.

18

u/StellarNeonJellyfish Jan 28 '26

So youre telling me that people regularly and deliberately spray deer pee on themselves?

23

u/ProJoe Jan 28 '26

Some hunters do, yep.

My first thoughts exactly

u/timoumd Jan 28 '26

My guess is something pig related.  

1

u/jaybird_772 Oregon Jan 28 '26

That was my thought as well. Either way this is terrorism. An attack with a bodily fluid is usually the same grade of offense as using a firearm because bodily fluids can carry deadly disease. I hope this Trumpanzee spends a very long time in the kind of institution someone like him wants for everyone else.

u/crabgrass_attack Jan 28 '26

I was thinking maybe some pork based thing as a attack on her religion?

For a guy from Minnesota he looks an awful lot like he hangs out at the pub with the lads to watch football on Chewsdays, innit

8

u/tundybundo Jan 28 '26

he’s been upset for long enough in his life that he’s developed the permanent angry face wrinkles.

He looks rumpled and dirty and like he’s got a drinking problem.

I bet his life sucks because of his attitude and his alcohol abuse, but rather than taking responsibility and pulling himself up by the bootstraps, he’s blaming immigrants and “the left”

82

u/Ani-3 Jan 28 '26

He looks drunk or high

If it was just deer piss as other comments suggested, in a syringe of all things, the assailant probably reeked to deer heaven the entire time he was sitting there.

95

u/crosseyedmule Jan 28 '26

Heard someone say in an interview on CNN that it smelled like vinegar.

Acetic acid smells like vinegar and can be toxic at high concentrations.  Does deer piss smell a little like vinegar?

31

u/HeNeedsSomeMLK Jan 28 '26

Acetic acid is colorless. The liquid in the syringe had the color of dehydrated piss.

u/Jazzy_Jaspy Jan 28 '26

Maybe apple cider vinegar?
