    There’s plenty factual stuff to use that far right people hate though:

    • Being in the military with zero people skills means he was an ineffectual leader and a desk driving paper pusher

    • He wears eyeliner

    • He grew a beard to hide his weak chin

    • He’s a white nationalist with a minority wife who looks like she’s at gunpoint every time she’s on camera

    Again, inventing a lie to attack him with will just galvanize his supporters. Use what’s already true and very conflicting with far right ideology.

      The attack point has to be something that both sides of the political spectrum finds repulsive. If only right wingers have a problem it makes the lefties look like hypocrites, and if it’s something only people on the left care about it’s ineffective.

      Eyeliner and weak chins/beards aren’t things people on the left tend to take issue with, while white nationalism and misogyny aren’t things people on the right take issue with.

      The military thing could work, but it’s not punchy enough, it’s too specific and not very funny. The couch fucker jokes are easy laughs.
