    I remember watching the infamous sub thedonald turn from making fun of him into being for him. It was insane.

      Yeah exactly! I was not Republican or even Republican-curious. But I joined /r/thedonald in the early days because it was hilarious. Then all of a sudden it was like “what the fuck? you guys are serious?”

        Same, I joined thinking it was some generic anti establishment thing, blowing up and goofing on the Clintons in spite of u/spez’s irritation then over the course of a couple months the unironic support started to surface through and it basically became a fanclub.
