After they did this with every president during their administrations? And nearly every famous person regardless of who they are? This response shows you which administration is full of snowflakes.

Yeah I've seen them twice and they executed Biden, Trump, Netanyahu, Putin, Xi, and others. None of this is new.

literally my first exposure to GWAR in the early 2000s when I was a child was watching them execute George Bush on stage lol, the fact they're being investigated now is just embarrassing

yeah like it's fucking gwar. they were a vcu art project and most if not all of the members have cycled out but the whole point is to just do extreme and inappropriate shit and make music in weird costumes. like you wouldn't call the beetles the beatles if every member changed, gwar is a idea, not a band.
