"Diamond and Silk" Marked Down For Quick Sale
Unhinged social media Trump cultists who call themselves Diamond and Silk (a.k.a. Zirconium and Polyester) have apparently gone too far in their blather than even Trump TV will tolerate. The duo were booted off of Fux platforms for spouting lunatic coronavirus conspiracy theories, including the claim that the number of deaths was being inflated deliberately to harm their Dear Leader.
The two are known for their cultish adoration of demagogue and mentally unstable con man Donald "COVID Donnie" Trump, with some African Americans referring to their obsequious praise of him as "cooning." They've certainly used their social media celebrity to endear themselves with far right audiences and organizations, who have rewarded them with paid gigs at conferences, etc. They've been frequent visitors at the White (Supremacist) House, where Trump cynically poses with them for photos.
There's no question that, despite their greatly diminished audience as a result of Fux's move, they'll certainly find an even more unhinged outlet to air their crackpot notions, because you can always sell zirconium and polyester as diamonds and silk to some people.
