Fun challenge, I'll try to tackle it for kicks!

What you have currently is a joke, with a setup and punchline. You can either try to maintain that structure with a setup word, transition verb, then punchline word structure... Or you can abandon the joke and repackage the subtext/implication of the joke as bold, explicit text. The first would require great cleverness. The second would be easier and clearer.

Example A: Joke Format (Setup, Transition Word, Punchline) - "Clowns Know More" or "Clowns Do Work"

That is kind of vague about what you are referring. It might take many drafts to get close to something that works well.

Example B: Abandon metaphor, replace subtext with text - "Trump's A Chump."

I first thought of Trump's A Fool but I figure rhyming is catchier.

To be honest, I think a joke like this is fine as is, but doesn't lend itself to a movement-defining rally call either way. It's best used the way you wrote it as a hook to a speech talking point, or during a one-on-one conversation with an engaged individual, rather than a crowd call-and-response. You can then follow up with "Trump's a chump" after you have their ear, as a way to hammer home your point and compel them to adopt this view.

To be fair, Trump attended a college, so you need to be ready to demonstrate he never studied, is lazy, and illiterate/ignorant.

I do think giving him the moniker "Chump Trump" to deride his stupid choices would help distance people from him. MAGA loves mocking others, hate being mocked, and deride those who fall victim to mockery.

The collapse of the Soviet Union in the late 80s into the early 90s is all I think about. Now Russia is a new kind of hell.

I think that's a great chant, though I would support using his real name. I think we should use that one ASAP, but not rely on that to win the long game. We need to be for something that will carry us to a new party in control after this shit storm passes. But for now, getting rid of Elon would appeal to many across the aisle and would be a good first step.

You need the following:

  • Emergency food plans.
  • Emergency water plans.
  • Emergency first aid supplies and training.
  • A local community/network that can aid each other in a time of crisis that has secure communication channels.
  • If you can afford it and want the security blanket feeling, you should acquire a concealable firearm, receive training, acquire a Conceal Carry License, and possibly invest in a 13 gauge shotgun for home defense, an AR for mobilization and hunting, more training, ammunition reserves, and bullet proof vests for your household. (This level of prep is mostly for peace of mind for the l last likely but worst case scenario and is much less essential for most people.)

Pretty sure this is the Mensa episode

Daily reminder that he wasn't deported, because deportation is a process and they skipped the process and sent him straight to a death camp

Honestly, for the TikTok age... Yeah

Drain the Swamp was also a huge hit

I've always felt that one's rhythm matches a marching drum. Not as well rounded but strong for that one purpose .

I think No More Kings is another appealing one right now

Here are the most impactful slogans in recent American history:

Build the wall. - Trump

Yes we can. - Obama

Eat the rich. - Far Left

Feel the Bern. - Sanders 2016

One on the rise currently is,

"No more kings."

That one isn't for now though imo, strategically I think that one should peak later down the line once more are involved and elections are near.

English speaking Americans love chanting three syllable chants consisting of three words. Stadiums resonate with these chants. Posters display them. T-Shirts and hats bear them. And history books remember them. The people remember them.

We used to call ourselves the "Land of the Free, and the Home of the Brave."

This is a calling to honor those titles

Free means all.

Rise, or fall.
