In case you’re feeling charitable, you can now officially make a donation to the victims of the Bowling Green Massacre – but it’s not what you think.
If you’ve never heard of the Bowling Green Massacre, it’s because, well, it never actually happened. In an interview with Chris Matthews on MSNBC on Thursday night, Kellyanne Conway defended Trump’s immigration ban by citing the (completely fictional) Bowling Green Massacre in which some Iraqi refugees supposedly orchestrated a terrorist attack on American soil. (We guess it was just an “alternative fact?”)
In any case, there is now a website where you can support the victims of the fictional Bowling Green terrorist attack – and the best part is, upon clicking “make a donation,” you’ll be redirected to the American Civil Liberties Union’s donation page. Clearly, somebody has a savage AF sense of humor.
The parody website even features sentimental quotes about the attack that didn’t happen, complete with the obligatory black and white photo of someone looking longingly out a window.
“We all still carry the vivid memories of what horrors occurred at Bowling Green, but some still relive those moments everyday as they work to rebuild a community torn apart,” the website reads. (Lol.)
Oh, the horrors. (Of a presidential advisor who seems to have no problem making up tragic events on live television.)
