Doren, from the article, ***** Johnny McEntee, the former White House Trump aide closely linked to plans for radical federal government reform should Donald Trump win re-election, stoked outrage with a TikTok video in which he claimed to give unhoused people fake money, thereby to ensure their arrest. “So I always keep this fake Hollywood money in my car,” McEntee said in the video posted last week by The Right Stuff, a dating site for rightwingers of which McEntee is a co-founder. “So when a homeless person asks for money, then I give them like a fake $5 bill. So I feel good about myself. They feel good. And then when they go to use it, they get arrested. So I’m actually like helping clean up the community, you know, getting them off the street.” The video included a caption: “Just a joke. Everyone calm down.” ***** As I read this article, I had doubts about whether this scheme would actually work, and whether the guy was serious about it. Then I got to the "just a joke" part, and I realized that the video was a clever troll. Tenchusatsu
