It's the Day's Day of Days! Because Fates and Flora Fourflush.
The fascinating thing is this demonstrates not only Muir's delusional, racist, sexist misunderstanding of the present, but his equally delusional, racist, sexist misunderstanding of the past.
It's the Day's Day of Days! Because Perils of the Wilderness.
Did I call it, or did I call it?
This whiny, pathetic, hateful little screed is Muir imagining himself to be so, SO patriotic.
Because he hates this country, and he hates everything that's decent. But he has to pretend to himself that he doesn't.
It's the Day's Day of Days! Because Pirates of the High Seas.
The eternal whine of Muir's cast that they are the most persecuted people EVAH.
God, it's so tiresome.
It's the Day's Day of Days! Because Brick Bradford.
What makes this little bit of hate bearable is the fact that it is, again, being produced as his latest idol cracks up and runs out of political juice. This has been a regular feature in DbD, Muir declaring that the great victory is nigh, and that everyone now hates his opponent, and soon, soon... He's just gotten nastier and more blatant in how he says it.
It's the Day's Day of Days! Because Son of the Guardsman.
It's a good example of the moral wretchedness of this fictional universe that Sam and Zed clearly feel the only morally objectionable part of this proposed death camp is that they, a family of good volk would be near it.
And that they overcome this objection by thinking that, well, hey, they'd be guys doing some of the murdering.
It's the Day's Day of Days! Because Brenda Starr, Reporter.
I see Muir's trying to distract himself from watching the Second Trump Administration hit its terminal phase by looking across the Atlantic for things to be a racist moral nullity about.
It's the Day's Day of Days! Because Batman.
I reiterate, such... wholesome family values.
It's the Day's Day of Days! Because Deadwood Dick.
...
He pulls this one as Trump tries to set up a slush fund and ban the IRS from looking into his family funds, and oh, yes, has the entire war with Iran going on.
...
Ugh.
It's the Day's Day of Days! Because The Clutching Hand.
Man. As vile and morally bankrupt as all this is, it's also just so pathetic. This is Muir crashing out in real time, staring at a reality that looks very bad for him, shutting his eyes, and desperately trying to insist that it is something else entirely. The last time I saw him this bad was way back in 2020 when he was trying to convince himself that no, no, Biden hadn't won, it was all a trick, all a trick, Trump was going to throw all the Democrats in prison any day now.
It's gonna be a crazy year, folks.
It's the Day's Day of Days! Because Custer's Last Stand.
This legion of misquotes and bullshit are pretty rich coming from a guy who's trafficked in worse, and whined and screamed persecution at even the faintest hint of being called on it. But it also underlines what a gutless wonder Muir is under it all. He's like the people who, to paraphrase the quote, waged war on the naive belief that they would bomb everyone and no one would bomb them.
And I don't think I need to tell you how that went for them.
It's the Day's Day of Days! Because Man With the Steel Whip.
It's kind of amazing how this imagined "Muslim community" on the Texas border just keeps popping back up every few months because Muir so loves giving his cast punching bags that he's having this one spontaneously regenerate over and over again so Sam can complain about or destroy it again.
It's the Day's Day of Days! Because Don Daredevil Rides Again.
It's kind of fascinating that he jumps onto the Swalwell story well after it's fallen to the wayside, and crows triumphantly about the state of California Democrats right as the governor's race starts seeing solid front-runners emerge. But then coming in a day late and a dollar short while screaming about bright futures that don't happen has been Muir's calling card for decades now, hasn't it?
It's the Day's Day of Days! Because King of the Rocket Men.
Sometimes Muir making every character 'Muir in different hats' goes in real creepy directions.
It's the Day's Day of Days! Because Federal Agents vs. Underworld, Inc.
...
I'm sorry, it's just in addition to the hypocrisy, we've got Muir portraying Elon Musk as possessing both moral fiber and disgust with Epstein, neither of which are true. (A reminder that, just like Il Puce, Muskrat was far closer to Epstein than the people Muir likes to imagine were his besties.)
It's the Day's Day of Days! Because G-Men Never Forget.
Ahh, yes, Muir doing the bit where he mixes being sleazy with being self-righteous. Never gets old.
It's the Day's Day of Days! Because Robinson Crusoe of Clipper Island.
The classic example of Muir casually demonstrating what a repugnant little fascist thug he is at heart, while imagining that he's somehow proving that he's the plain-talking man of the people. As usual, he not only demonstrates that his supposed patriotism is a fucking lie, but he doesn't understand the real McCoy, and wants the cheap counterfeit he's put up to be taken for it.
In the end, he's just fascist scum. Sometimes, he really rubs your face in it.
It's the Day's Day of Days! Because The Whispering Shadow.
The American Right. Proudly spewing the bullshit of the people the US helped thump but good, because patriotism.
It's the Day's Day of Days! Because The Devil Horse.
I see we've found the one thing that will get Skye to behave like a proper straw liberal again. Blatant Nazi rhetoric. Which gets Muir to get all whiny about why don't anybody respect white people anymore.
Delightful.
It's the Day's Day of Days! Because The Hurricane Express.
There is something so wearisome in this pretense of wit, in Muir trying to pretend he isn't saying what he's saying, and imagining he's getting away with it.
It's the Day's Day of Days! Because The Last of the Mohicans.
Won't lie, I thought something like this was coming up, but only after Muir would first explain how we mustn't be hasty...
But no, next step is Muir shouting Nazi filth so he can chide those member of the Peanut Gallery who object for being sheeple when they object, because, no, no, he's not being a Nazi, honest, the jackboots and the armband are just for emphasis.
