Donald Trump Jr. blamed the Republican Party for all of his fathers defeats and then topped it off by claiming that the radical left banned the Muppets and got the Mr. taken off of Mr. Potato Head.
The Muppets are not banned.
The son of Trump has been increasingly more deranged, as he attacked teachers in an online video while posing with guns, and claimed that the Texas winter storm disaster was the fault of Democratic governors.
Mental illness can be hereditary.
There is something clearly wrong with Donald Trump that goes beyond being mad that his daddy is a one-term presidential loser. CPAC has always been the gathering place for conservative extremists, but it has now added a heavy dose of mob mentality and Trump cultism to its mix.
CPAC has been a very special trip to Trump crazy town so far.

See https://www.theguardian.com/culture/2021/feb/22/the-muppet-show-episodes-given-a-content-warning-on-disney which is the main issue in the news. I read that one episode has been pulled because the guest host ended up being accused of being a child abuser, or something like that. The only other things I've read that have been cut are things involving lack of rights for rebroadcasting the original musical performance.

8. Muppet
When a British Goldman Sacs employee resigned last year in an open letter and said that some colleagues in London had called their clients muppets, Americans at the firm were left wondering what he meant. Brits have borrowed Jim Hensons name for furry, be-stringed critters and tweaked it to mean someone whos stupid, gullible and incapable of independent thought. Lets not mention this to Miss Piggy.
