Liberal Parent Trying To Figure Out How To Cheer For His Son Brandon

ST. LOUIS, MO—Local liberal Joe Bailey has for years enjoyed cheering on his son Brandon at his Little League soccer games, but lately that has proven difficult, since his cheering typically involves shouting the insurrectionist chant "Let's Go Brandon" from the stands.

"I try to be so careful, but every so often in the excitement, I let slip a ‘Let’s go Brandon!’" said Bailey. "Then all the parents join in chanting, the game devolves into fits of laughter, and all the Trump supporters are trying to give me a high-five. It’s horrible!"

According to sources, Mr. Bailey has thought about changing his son's name to something like "Bandleigh" or "Braidlynio" to make things a bit easier.

"Woooo!" said Bailey as his son made a great play, trying desperately to avoid using the dreaded phrase. "Let's go... bud! Well played! Positive reinforcement!"

Just then, Brandon scored a goal, causing his dad to jump to his feet and involuntarily scream "LET'S GO BRANDON!", causing the entire crowd to join in.

Joe Bailey is now on 12 FBI watch lists.

Liberal Parent Trying To Figure Out How To Cheer For His Son Brandon

Easy. Tell Brandon that every time you yell F+ck Joe Biden, you are actually cheering for Brandon. It should also prove cathartic for your liberal diseased brain.

Mr. Bailey needs a grief counselor...

Oh they are quite aware of how close to reality they sometimes come with their items. There is a secondary site they have called Not the Bee where they point out actual news in this crazy world we live in and then on their podcasts they occasionally have prophecy fulfilled where they show something they put up on the Bee which has a reality counterpart out there. Like you said this one could be one of them.

"LET'S GO BRANDON!"

I prefer the original Anglo-Saxon version.

“But I’ll bet dollars to donuts she doesn’t like people like us...”

Give her to me fora while.
I’ll change her outlook on things. It won’t be easy but with the proper use of certain implements of persuasion she will eventually come around.
If she truly is a liberal I should be able to whip her into shape in two months tops.

Hahahaha

She looks like a nice gal, but...looks can be deceiving...:)

I’ve seen lots of nice looking Leftist women, they open their mouth, though...:(

Yeah, one of my sons got involved with a stealth leftist. She didn’t give a hint until he moved in with her and she got pregnant. She turned into the daughter of Satan his own self.
Although he has 16 more years of child support to pay he doesn’t regret splitting.

Ugh. That’s awful. That is called cutting your losses. Earlier the better, poor guy.

Yeah, but he looks at it as a lesson learned. It only takes once for him to learn the lesson. He now tells women, before the first date, that he is a conservative Trump supporter who won’t be assimilated by the collectivist horde.
He says that actually thins the heard rather quickly.

And if she’d repeated what the fans were chanting, the FCC would have pulled the station’s license.

Best she could do with the hand dealt.

Smart gal.

Many decades ago I was engaged to a woman who dumped me before the marriage.

She turned into a very prominent leftist—I caught a _huge_ break.

Lesson learned—I married a farmer’s daughter who chops wood and cooks up a storm...

The big question is, will she vote for Brandon in the next election (if he makes it)?

********************************

The bigger question is did any actual living, breathing human being actually vote for Brandon or were all those votes just Ghosts of Dominion?

A huge break indeed!
She saved you years of frustration, headaches and torment. Good thing you found you a country gal with common sense, and the love of cooking is a HUGE bonus.
See how happy that woman made you by dumping you?
Out of the ashes arose a bright future!

The lefty woman had zero street smarts.

She became prominent and gave her entire life history in interviews with womens’ magazines....

Turns out that after she dumped me she married another guy—and that lasted only a couple of years.

After that her life got totally crazy—slept with married bosses, never lasted at any employer for more than a few years, blamed it all on those “evil men”, definitely worth a Lifetime movie...

;-)

Sounds like she was part attention whore and the rest plain whore. She seems to have flushed her life down the toilet and blamed everyone else for her ending up in the septic tank. But thats what leftists do, blame everyone but themselves.

You didn’t dodge a bullet, you dodged a 105 MM!

When I met her she was a teenager, very sweet and innocent, but once she got to college (an all women’s college) the women’s lib types convinced her she was super-woman because she was at the top of her class and was very beautiful.

It happened _very_ quickly, within six months—and I had no idea what was happening. I knew she had lots of potential, but had no reason to suspect she would become a crazy leftist, particularly since her interests were math and science.

In the “old days” she would have been fine—but the leftist college environment really warped her.

So—I do think she was a victim—but she dragged a lot of folks down with her.
