I know I said that I’d be taking a little time away from the blog to think, but I need to ask you all something… I thought I posted something really good on Twitter earlier this evening, and, as no one seemed to care for it, I’m curious as to what might have gone wrong. Could it be that people just don’t appreciate references to Halloween III: Season of the Witch the way they used to? Or is it maybe that I crossed some kind of line, like Kathy Griffin, by suggesting that MAGA hats might contain microchips that, when activated by the right television commercial, could summon a swarm of flesh-eating snakes and insects to completely consume the head of whichever Trump supporter might be wearing the hat? Or is it just that I took a truly brilliant idea and just delivered it poorly? Should I have, instead, said something like, “Put on your Silver Shamrock MAGA hats tonight at 9:00 and tune in to FOX News to catch the new NRA ad. I hear it’s going to be huge!”? Or, does the idea just kind of suck? What do you think? I need your help.
Put on your MAGA hats and come over here to the computer. I've got something for you to watch. #SeasonOfTheWitch #MAGA pic.twitter.com/uKLemXW2v2

Here, in case you’ve never seen Season of the Witch, is the ad that told kids to wear their Silver Shamrock masks at 9:00 on Halloween night to find out about a big giveaway… A link to the ad showing what would then happen to the kids when they tuned in can be found in the post above.
Here’s a related question… Would your opinion of Trump change for the better if you discovered that he was a witch, and that everything he’s done thus far has just been done in order to get head-eating MAGA hats into the hands of America’s most deplorable citizens?
OMG are you kidding me? If ever I see “silver shamrock” together (which happens more than you’d think), I think of that movie!!
I would have simply photoshopped a person in a MAGA hat watching the Silver Shamrock ad, along with a caption like “Please. Please. Please.”
If there was even a hint this might be true, I’d give my stepdad his hat back.
