Nappie-wearing trumpers and the nation’s “biggest open carry rally” with a chance to win a shiny, new trump AR15, are the latest developments in the trump magaverse.

The nappie craze has mushroomed during a very serious trial in which trump is accused of paying hush money to adult film star Stormy Daniels. At various times during the trial, trump was heard apparently passing gas and possible poo.

The gas and poo is the genesis of “VonShitzInPantz,” a new moniker coined by Michael Cohen, trump’s former lawyer and now chief accuser. Cohen took a cue from trump who has made labeling opponents with childish, goofy names something of an art form.

“Hey Von ShitzInPantz…your attacks of me stink of desperation,” Cohen said in a post on X last month. “We are all hoping that you take the stand in your defense.”

The former trump fixer followed up his post a few days later with “Oh… Von ShitzInPantz. Keep whining, crying and violating the gag order you petulant defendant!”

Meanwhile, President Joe Biden got in a few zingers, including admitting that he was shedding crocodile tears over trump’s “stormy weather.”

The reaction was swift among the MAGA world as trumpers began wearing nappies and declaring that “real men” wear them. One picture making its way on the Internet shows a woman wearing what appeared to be a diaper and a T-shirt printed with “Diapers over Dems.” Other T-shirts have been printed with the slogan “Real Men Wear Diapers.”

In addition to diapers, a pro-trump religious group, the “Rod of Iron Ministries,” is “calling all Christian patriots” to gather to “Make America Godly Again” at the “Rod of Iron Freedom Festival,” two days of fireworks, food and of course, shooting. Admission is free and a winning ticket will be drawn for a new trump AK-47 semi-automatic assault-style rifle. Trump will no doubt be demanding royalties from the ministries for converting his Make America Great Again (MAGA) trademark into “Make America Godly Again.”

The event is billed as “the largest open carry event in America” and will be held Oct. 12–13 at the Kahr Arms/TommyGun Warehouse in Greeley, Pa.

The pastor of the “Rod of Iron Ministries” is the Rev. Hyung Jin Sean Moon, the youngest son of Rev. Sun Myung Moon. The scion was named by his father as sole successor to his ministry in 2009. Services are held at a 13,600 square-foot former theater and Catholic church in Newfoundland, Pa.

“The Rod of Iron Ministries” website says it is based on Revelations 19:15 “that the coming Lord will smite the nations: and … rule them with a rod of iron, which represents our sovereign Second Amendment rights as citizens, and that, thy Kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.”

Moon also hosts “The King’s Report,” a three-hour YouTube broadcast Monday through Saturday that includes spiritual guidance and political and social commentary from a biblical viewpoint. He also has been a practitioner of martial arts from an early age and holds a black belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.

A host of speakers will include brothers, Sean and Justin Moon and “Black Rambo,” “a huge social media celebrity” famous for his BlackRamboTV Instagram account. The rapper includes frequent clips and photos of firearms and shooting ranges in his shows.

Black Rambo aka Bacarri Rambo, an ex-Marine, was featured in season 13 of the History Channel’s show, “Swamp People,” a reality series that follows the activities of alligator hunters living in the swamps of the Atchafalaya River Basin.

Black Rambo,40, claims to have more than 1 million Instagram followers, more than 2.9 million subscribers and 819 million views to his Black Rambo TV YouTube channel and a Facebook page with more than 300,000 followers.

Open carry festival goers also will be treated to words from Amanda Suffecool, director of “Women for Gun Rights”; producer and host of “Eye on the Target Radio”; and the energy behind the national “Conceal Carry Fashion Shows.”

Also on the stage will be Sebastian Gorka, trump’s former deputy assistant and strategist who was fired after seven months for his fringe, far right views, including identifying with the Order of Vitéz and supporting Magyar Gárda, a paramilitary organization banned by the European Union.

During World War II, many members of the Hungarian government and military were members of the Order of Vitez and were involved in both contributing to the Holocaust as well as leading efforts against it. The U.S. Department of State lists the Order of Vitéz as having been “under the direction of the Nazi Government of Germany”, like the French Police at the time.

The international press and opponents of the Magyar Garda have described the organization as neo-fascist or neo-Nazi, similar to Hitler’s brownshirts (“SA”) in Nazi Germany and the fascist Arrow Cross Party in Hungary.

Gorka hosts a show on Newsmax Media and his show, “America First” on the Salem Radio Network.

Also on the roster will be Allen West, a one-term congressman from Florida, former chairman of the Republican Party of Texas and Fox News commentator.

While in the Army, West was deployed to Kuwait in 1991 and Iraq in 2003. In 2003, West was charged in an incident that involved the beating and simulated execution of an Iraqi policeman, with West firing a gun near the Iraqi man’s head during an interrogation. West was fined $5,000, and was forced to retire as a lieutenant colonel.

After West’s election to the Texas post, the Texas GOP adopted the slogan “We are the storm,” a phrase used by believers in the far, far right, QAnon conspiracy theory. After the U.S. Supreme Court rejected Texas’s suit to invalidate 2020 presidential election results, West said that “perhaps law-abiding states should bond together and form a Union of states that will abide by the Constitution.”

A segue from guns and diapers leads to trump’s youngest son, Barron, 18, who is quickly being sucked into the trump maelstrom and was seen recently in a photo taken at Mar-a-Lago that has gone viral on-line. The 6-foot-7 trump is shown posing with steel magnate Justin Waller, entrepreneur Patrick Bet-David, MMA fighter Colby Covington, and 17-year-old Bo Loudon, son of conservative commentator Gina Loudon.

The caption under the photo aside three emojis of the American flag, reads, “Good evening. Let’s take this country back.”

Waller is a millionaire owner of real estate and construction companies. He also is the “face” of Andrew Tate’s “The Real World” business school , which has been banned by YouTube for exploiting young fans. Andrew Tate is former professional kickboxer, and social media personality known for his misogynistic views among young males. As of December 2023, he had more than 8.5 million followers on X. He has also been dubbed the “king of toxic masculinity.” Tate and his brother, Tristan, are being held in Bulgaria on charges of exploiting women via a criminal group posing as an adult content business.

Patrick Bet-David is an Iranian-American conservative political commentator, entrepreneur, author, and YouTuber. He founded PHP Agency, a multi-level marketing financial services company. He also hosts the “Valuetainment and “PBD Podcast channels on YouTube. Valuetainment has 5 million subscribers and over 919 million views

Colby Covington is a professional mixed martial artist and outspoken trump supporter.

Bo Loudon, a 17-year-old friend of Barron’s, is prominent on Instagram, Twitter and the ex-president’s site, Truth Social. Loudon is an ambassador for the pro-trump group, Turning Point USA. Loudon garnered on-line attention when he proclaimed on X that “abortion is when a baby gets the death penalty for someone else’s actions.”

Loudon’s mother is Gina Loudon, known as Dr. Gina, a former member of trump’s 2020 campaign’s media advisory board and the co-chair of Women for Trump 2020. She also is a member at trump’s Mar-a-Lago castle.

In her 2018 book “Mad Politics: Keeping Your Sanity in a World Gone Crazy,” Gina Loudon claimed that undisclosed, scientific evidence shows trump to be “the most sound-minded person to ever occupy the White House.” She also claimed to have a PhD in psychology when she actually has a PhD in human and organization systems from Fielding Graduate University, an online school.

Loudon and her husband, former Missouri state senator John William Loudon, (R), appeared on the show “Wife Swap when they swapped with a polyamorous and bisexual family.

Gina and John Loudon are sponsoring a proposed Florida amendment that explicitly states that only citizens may vote in elections, a measure that would amplify the issue of immigration in the 2020 battleground state.

And last on the MAGA star parade is the influential Calvinist pastor, the Rev. John MacArthur, who said recently that parents are creating potential drug addicts and criminals by using medications to treat children for Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD) and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). He denied the conditions are psychiatric.

MacArthur, 84, spoke on a panel at Grace Church of the Valley in Kingsbury, Calif.

“There’s no such thing as PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder). There’s no such thing as OCD. There’s no such thing as ADHD,” MacArthur said. “Psychiatry and psychology is finally admitting the noble lies they’ve been telling the last 100 years. The major noble lie is there’s such a thing as mental illness.”

He also told the gathering that homosexuals are “coming after your kids.”

During the COVID-19 pandemic, MacArthur led his church to defy public health restrictions meant to stop the spread of the virus and then sued the county and the state when they tried to enforce the ban on large public gatherings in the heat of the pandemic.

He said mental illness, including Post Traumatic Stress Disorder is not a mental illness but is mere grief. Those diagnosed with PTSD may be given a pill but “end up in LA homeless on the sidewalk,” he said.

MacArthur hosts the national Christian radio and television program “Grace to You.” He has been the pastor of Grace Community Church, a non-denominational church in Sun Valley, California since 1969. He is currently the chancellor emeritus of The Master’s University in Santa Clarita and The Master’s Seminary.

The Master’s University is a private non-denominational Christian university in Santa Clarita, Calif. The university prohibits “homosexuality or bisexual conduct” by students and may legally expel LGBT students because it has a religious exemption from anti-discrimination laws. MacArthur has spoken and written at length in university publications about the threat he perceives from the gay agenda, asserting that “biblical love excludes homosexuality because of its sinfulness.” The Master’s University is ranked among the worst American schools for LGBT students by LGBTQ Nation and Campus Pride.
