    “I’m in charge here.”

    “Oh, fuck, you are? Let me check my chain of command- damn. Yep, says right here. I’ll go back to my barracks now and wait to be arrested.”

    Peak noncredibility, I love how weird the world is some days.

      This was almost certainly staged by the president to boost his popularity

        The fact that Zúñiga claims, it was a ploy by the president to gain popularity, leads me to believe, that it wasn’t.

        Same thought crossed my mind but what bothers me the most was that Zuniga’s neck gaiter makes it look like he has no neck, from that angle. It makes him look like his face is retracting, like a turtle. Why would he lose his job and look like a limp turtle’s noodle, just to help out President Arce?

      “Im sorry but we aren’t accepting applications for the position of President at this time.”

      “Oh, okay. Can I leave my resume?”

      “No.”

      “Oh. Okay.”

        I still have no idea what actually happened in that. I was convinced he was acting the whole thing out at Putin’s request, but then he was killed a week later. IMO, that was the weirdest news story ever.
