Another day in the year 2020, another positively bizarre moment in the life of the average American.
At this point, it must feel like we’re living in some bizarre, technology-driven purgatory just waiting for the other shoe to drop. We’re living through a global pandemic, with “murder hornets” headed our way, and Donald Trump – who once made a cameo in Home Alone 2 – residing within the Oval Office.
It’s just that 2020 has been undeniably weird, if not a little apocalyptic.
Now, as if to prove that the entire illusion has been shattered, President Trump was greeted by a loud and childish prank while touring a factory that makes medical masks for frontline workers.
They blasted “Live and Let Die” while Trump walked around a Honeywell plant today in Arizona without a mask. It’s hard to believe this clip is real. pic.twitter.com/M1dMe8KaMK

The sheer volume of the music leads one to believe that this was a prank or protest of some sort, and that makes it all the more bizarre. You would think that that Secret Service would have preferred a quiet area in which to work while protecting Trump.
And while Guns ‘N Roses’ lead singer Axl Rose has long been a hypercritical anti-Trump figure, as of this writing, the infamously pretentious rockstar has yet to chime in.
