By now, many readers are aware of the gutsy prank that an Oregonian named Jared Schmeck played on Joe Biden and the First Lady during the Holiday break. Schmeck’s family has a Christmas tradition where they call NORAD to determine how close Santa is to their home.

Only a few months after the inauguration, as the nation sat in stunned awe of the new administration’s remarkable ineptitude, crowds across the nation began impromptu chants of “Fuck Joe Biden” at public events.
