‘All Trump supporters are stupid’: Babysitter proves why we shouldn’t trust MAGA intelligence by nearly burning house down

Some would say it’s unfair to call out Donald Trump voters for their lack of intelligence. But aside from being foolish enough to be tricked into voting for a man who’s going to march America into a dystopian nightmare world, there are plenty of other examples of typical MAGA supporters and their intelligence.

One woman on TikTok learned just how stupid some Trump supporters can be after allowing a MAGA to babysit her children. Tannie, or Tan, explained that she wasn’t aware that the young woman she hired to babysit was a Trump voter at first, but it became pretty apparent after one incredibly stupid action.

Ember mugs do not belong in the microwave

As Tan explains in her video, the babysitter, “who is college age” decided to make herself a cup of tea and figured the heavy mug with a literal battery inside would be the best one to put in a microwave. The mug Tan refers to is what’s known as an Ember mug, a special type of cup that allows drinkers to set the temperature they want their beverage and keep it that temperature.

My jaw stayed perfectly in place when I saw her in that red hat.

It’s a pretty cool concept although if there was one flaw you could point out it would have to be the fact you can’t microwave it. Of course, for most people that’s just common sense, electronics and microwaves do not mix. But apparently Tan’s Babysitter’s brain must have been on vacation that day as she absent-mindedly put the mug inside and caused a fire which destroyed the microwave and resulted in the fire brigade having to be called in.

While a few tried to give the babysitter the benefit of the doubt it’s obvious that this isn’t just an easy mistake to make. One person commented, “I had an idea of what an Ember mug looked like, but I wanted to give her the benefit of the doubt. So I googled it and yea, none of those look microwaveable in the slightest.”

Fortunately the entire house wasn’t burnt to a crisp and the kids and the babysitter were unharmed. However, the damage did end up costing Tan roughly $1,200 due to the fact the microwave was built in.

“I guess I won’t judge Trump supporters by their actions”

There are definitely idiots on both sides of the political spectrum, but common sense really does seem like a rare occurrence in the MAGA camp. Many Trump voters have found out the hard way that voting Republican has only made their own lives more difficult. Donald and his cronies are the worst when it comes to sharing fake news and getting facts wrong.

Let’s not forget, the babysitter who essentially microwaved a battery, well her vote is worth the same as everyone else’s. This is how Donald Trump was able to so easily pull the wool over people’s eyes.
