We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

Sometimes if you build it, they don’t come,” Dean Phillips told reporters outside of the Manchester DoubleTree hotel this morning, after no voters showed up to his “Government Repair Truck Coffee Conversations” event in 22 degree weather.

Not sure if this is sad or funny or both.

I mean, there's plenty of places in NH where "Truck Repair Coffee" sorry, "Truck Repair Dunkins" will get people in the door but Manchester?

Also "Government"? That'll just drive people away. Who the hell named this event? Dean Phillips? Is he a Democrat plant so they can say "See? No one wants a Biden challenger!"
