I hesitate to even give TFG the honoured title Reject, but he is being solidly rejected all over the show, and so he might (blech) qualify. We even did an episode about him: www.rejectedcentral.com/podcast/epis...

In the lead to next week's @rejectedcentral.com episode, I decided that the interwebs needs a fabulous graphic where everyone can tell VP Elon exactly what they think of his Nazi ways. Note the handy space at the top to add a helpful message! #elonmusk #trump #inauguration #elon #saynotofascism
