A new White House petition that you'll like...

https://wwws.whitehouse.gov/petitions/%21/petition/we-demand-vapid-condescending-meaningless-politically-safe-response-petition/gCZfn86x?utm_source=wh.gov&utm_medium=shorturl&utm_campaign=shorturl

We demand a vapid, condescending, meaningless, politically safe response to this petition.

Since these petitions are ignored apart from an occasional patronizing and inane political statement amounting to nothing more than a condescending pat on the head, we the signers would enjoy having the illusion of success. Since no other outcome to this process seems possible, we demand that the White House immediately assign a junior staffer to compose a tame and vapid response to this petition, and never attempt to take any meaningful action on this or any other issue. We would also like a cookie.

1. I did a few of these petitions and all I got was a letter basically telling me

how stupid we were. I think this WH petition site is a bunch of BS meant to diffuse the masses into thinking they are being listened too.

3. He's never once done anything I've signed a petition for.

You'd think he'd do one ONE them. There I go whining and demanding a pony again.

I love what you wrote. I'll sign it.

5. If you want to get what you want, it's easiest to want what you can get. Cut the cookie.
