Everything is about branding in our culture these days and today is a good example, it's April Fools' Day and the new MAGA national holiday.
Trump minions have taken years to build up their brand as a band of fools and after seven years they finally came up with a good day in April to celebrate. The association of a day for fools and the united MAGA supporters is apparent for all to see.

A Brief Origin of April Fools' Day
It's not cast in concrete, but some historians speculate that April Fools' Day dates back to 1582 when France switched from the Julian calendar to the Gregorian calendar.
The new year began with the spring equinox around April 1.
People who were slow to get the news or failed to recognize that the start of the new year had moved to January 1st and continued to celebrate it during the last week of March through April 1 were mocked.
They became the butt of jokes and hoaxes and were called (what else?) April fools.

Back to the fools who follow the Trump cult. Being a fool is cool among the MAGA appointed lawmakers lurking in Congress. Just look at some of the committee meetings they've held thus far.
Think Rep. Lauren Boebert who made a fool of herself arguing about urinating in public at a recent committee meeting without getting her facts straight. You had to be there.
The Republican clowns - with their slim majority in the House - are doing their best to poison our judiciary, House, Senate, electoral system, the Dept. of Education, the FBI, DOJ, CIA, and the military. And there's more, but you get the idea.
Now that MAGA maroons have a national holiday of their own they can use it as a day to recruit extremists and domestic terrorists.
As it stands, "Tricks and treachery are the practice of fools that don't have brains enough to be honest," -Benjamin Franklin
