A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Right!?!?!?! I thought we hit rock bottom with Bush Jr and then this whole thing with Trump came along. I am starting to realize that it’s just going to get worse from here. If GWB wasn’t the worst then Trump will likely not be the worst.

You're lucky Musk is born in SA, or he would be your president in a few terms!

Who says he won't be? Constitution doesn't seem to matter much these days. More of a suggestion really. Except, apparently, the 2nd amendment.

Yeah, they don't have any use for the reasoning it's based on, especially since it's no longer applicable.

I mean we have a history of folks who run for vice president running for president. So right there.

Musk has negative rizz, I doubt he'd be able to sway the masses like Trump has. Trump is - for all his many incomprehensible flaws - entertaining. Musk is a deeply boring man.
