Several boats sank at a pro-Trump gala and that’s the only metaphor we need – 11 funny responses
A floating Trump rally on Lake Travis in Austin, Texas, went badly wrong when several boats were overturned, probably due to the wake from so many larger vessels setting off at once, according to experts.

The President wasn’t there, as he was too busy preparing for the election.
Wish I could join you, but totally focused on November 3rd. Thank you! #MAGA pic.twitter.com/bZ31JCgz99

Clearly, there were conclusions to be drawn from the omnishambles, and Twitter was willing and able to do so.

The Trump boat parade fiasco is funny because the little Trump boats thought they were driving with the big Trump boats and then the big Trump boats crushed them with waves and drove away like always.

Let’s take the real irony away from this…
These fools representing Trump sunk their own boats. This lake doesn’t have major wakes like this. They literally sunk each other’s boats.

It's not sinking, it's alternative buoyancy. #Dumbkirk pic.twitter.com/JBT8OM27Hj

I mean, I guess I’m fine with you having a Trump boat I just wish you wouldn’t shove it down my lake.

Hats off to @very_actually for this apt tip.
Next time they should boat by mail#Dumbkirk
