My two cents re: the banning of Skippy.
Skippy was a happy go lucky, winsome lad who had the political hots for some Socialist Sanders. Conversely, he was a vocal downer on the subject of the Hildebeast. The 'cunning stunt' remark struck hard and deep into the political heart of Mrs. Skinner (whose wife really brings home the bacon!). Being bought and paid for by the Hildebeast, possibly in more ways than one, Mrs. Skinner had to act, and act big to stop the rebellion seething just below the surface at the DUmp. Nothing short of what he, or his minions, did to Skippy would have set the example he wants set in their discussions. Skippy had to die, the DUmmies can praise Red Bernie, but digs on the Hildebeast, clever of not so clever, will not be tolerated by the Troika.
Hopefully, some others will attempt to slide in some cracks about Hildebeast and get the granite pizza before the Dump Rats learn the true lesson Mrs. Skinner is dishing..
