YouTube Description
as posted by the channelWatch the RNC with me and Matt Taibbi and Thomas Frank at 9pm but first, I'll be chatting with Jess Scarane at 8pm. Drinking game rules
You Must Drink every time Trump
*uses pinch-y hands
*turns completely sideways
*refers to or steals from either Nixon's "Silent Majority" or Barry Goldwater's "Marauder" speech. (It doesn't matter if he's aware that he's doing this.)
*compares himself to a great historical figure
*talks about Bernie when he's supposed to be talking about Biden
*refers to himself as the son of Cuban immigrants
"mentions Joe Biden and the radical left"
Throughout the full night of programing, you may drink any time anyone
*mentions the word "radical" and/ or "socialist"
*equates the Nazis with “socialism.”
*makes a positive reference to or quotation from Martin Luther King OR Franklin Roosevelt OR Harry Truman.
*denounces “corporations”
*refers to future generations pitifully wondering what freedom was
*refers to the police or a member of the Trump family as the real victims of “cancel culture”
*praises Trump for acknowledging someone's dead relative or loved one and for being against their death
Two part cue section:
*You must drink every time someone uses the phrase, “union bosses” – AND hails the “working class” in the same speech
*You must drink every time someone blames Biden for mass incarceration—AND demands more funding for the police in the same speech. Bonus chug: if they actually know what mass incarceration is—OR-- if they specifically accuse Kamala Harris of being soft on crime
Triple chug for Thomas Frank alone: If someone identifies the Democrats as the party of the “professional class” or “white-collar elite”
