SL Newser- Places went above and beyond recently to confirm rumors encircling the possibility of a Donald Trump manor replica -- Mar-A-Lago -- within the vast deptsh of Second Life. Well, not only did they find the virtualized replica, but they even interviewed the owner, a JP Laszlo. 

“I went shopping for a house and saw this villa,” Laszlo said. “I had to have it. It was 6k Lindens, which isn’t the most expensive house I’ve ever bought, but it is just right for a plot this size. I said to my friend, ‘Well I have a house in Second Life again, and we have an election going on. How about a lawn sign?’ One thing lead to another. Now I have about eight of the things, two flag poles, and a Trump themed patrol car (laughter).”

When asked about her plans for the future in Second Life, Laszlo said: 

"Things will move forward and we are going to set up a campaign HQ." JP stated she had some spare land. " ... We are going to put an auditorium or a stadium, we haven't decided, we are looking at builds. ... I'm reaching out to people for the spring/summer so we can campaign here in Second Life for Trump, and if they want to contact me just to send me a message. It's gonna be a busy year. (smile)"

Did Trump go too far this time? Are we to assume that Hillary Clinton's one of the Reapers for this vaguely twisted analogy?

*EA has quickly claimed copyright and taken down the video on YouTube. Lucky for you, it still lives in the description of his tweet.

Following Brussels, Ted Cruz managed to defeat himself (again) with an impressivley idiotic statement:

“We need to immediately halt the flow of refugees from countries with a significant al Qaida or ISIS presence. We need to empower law enforcement to patrol and secure Muslim neighborhoods before they become radicalized. We need to secure the southern border to prevent terrorist infiltration. And we need to execute a coherent campaign to utterly destroy ISIS.”

Michael Ian Black responded in a highly entertaining string of tweets, pretending to be a Ted Cruz fan:

Hillary Clinton left her tin foil hat at home, was up late re-watching 'Independence Day' for the 99th time cause that movie just gets her; but she still brought her game face last week to drop some extraterrestrial wisdom on us all.

The Democratic presidential front-runner told the Conway Daily Sun during a campaign stop that, "I think we may have been [visited already]. We don't know for sure."

One can't even fathom how big D. Trump's going to roll with this one. He's probably not going to be chill about letting alien races set up shop on earth though.
