- the most extreme idiocy gets manufactured.

I'm a bit of a chess purist, and nothing gets my anger heated faster than the desecration of our cherished royal game. I can live with minor changes to the classic Staunton pieces, but when mental dwarfs start manufacturing monuments of idiocy like the one below (now advertised on TV) I'm filled with the urge to do violence. May these people suffer financial ruin, and perish in the most painful way possible!! 😠

I think it's kind of amusing. Poor Biden, originally sidelined as a rook. They got lucky with Trump's side. He hasn't managed to fire any of those people yet.

When I was a kid Jay Leno had a joke where he introduced a chess set: the wives of Larry King vs. Liz Taylor's husbands (each has been married 8 times). Looked pretty cool with Larry and Liz as the King and queen of their respective sides.

Ironic that this comes out at the time liberals are building ideological subversion. I think yall are going to replace police with, well....people with guns.????
I was just about to order a set, when I noted that Obama is not properly depicted. He just looks different than that to me, if you get my drift.
