Social Media in Hysterics Over Nevada MAGA Candidate’s Campaign Ad: ‘Parody of a Parody’

Michele Fiore is ready for the fight. She is running for the GOP candidacy for governor of Nevada and she checks every box as the most MAGA candidate in… hold on, she “shoots” every box as the most MAGA candidate of which one can conceive.

In her first commercial, which functions as a parody of SNL parodies of political videos, she announces her three-part plan for Nevada.

Before we review her three-part agenda for Nevada, it’s probably best for all of us to remember that Nevada is a state reeling from drought and water shortages, in a desert that never had enough water in the first place, there are very few good ideas as to how to get enough water into the Las Vegas basin. Additionally, and obviously, the global COVID pandemic is still hitting the tourist and convention industry the hardest, it almost seems designed to take the legs out from under Nevada.

Fiore ignores some issues that deeply impact her state and “shoots” out her three priorities for Nevada and they are the three Trump priorities:

First, obviously, no mandatory vaccinations, despite the fact that part of the “rugged freedom” that Nevadan GOPers treasure is the freedom for a private business to require employees to get vaccinated.

Second, obviously, is critical race theory, even though Fiore likely knows as much about critical race theory as she does about criticality in nuclear fission.

Third, obviously, is to rid Nevada of election fraud. In other words, no Democrats will be allowed to win if she is elected governor.

She makes these points by shooting things because all MAGA candidates have to shoot guns in their ads. It is such a parody of itself that the net is all over it:

There ya’ go! Addressing the most pressing issues in the lives of everyday Nevadans! And shooting them!
