They delve in things that you'd think are completely satirical and yet they mean it all unironically.

It's all over Breitbart, which I will not link to, but there's this: http://www.bleedingcool.com/2016/07/13/gays-for-trump-use-jim-steranko-s-h-i-e-l-d-image-for-party-poster-with-ann-coulter-pam-geller-geert-wilders-and-more/

Apparently this event is being organized by a gays for Trump group who believe "radical Islam" is the greatest threat to the LGBT community - hence the involvement of the odious Pam Geller.

It's a strange world...

It's like the last two surviving members of some 70s Classic Rock band playing a free July 4th concert on the town green. When Ann Coulter is the most famous person on your VIP list, it's a pretty sad roster.

Oh, and in Milo's case, a ped protector.

Meet Norsefire America, everyone. Leave your rights at the gate.

And, speaking as a man who has spent hundreds (maybe thousands) of dollars collecting Sgt. Fury and His Howling Commandos, seeing Trump that way really irks me.
