A Bold Claim from the Ministry of Delusion
Forget Gallup. Forget Rasmussen. Forget your ex who majored in poli sci. The only poll that matters is the one printed across your chest in bold, declarative smugness.
The 73% Approval Rating T-Shirt, designed by New Yorker cartoonist and longtime Bystander collaborator Bob Eckstein, is the ideal wardrobe addition for anyone fluent in spin, satire, or stubborn optimism. It’s for the voter who knows that “truth” is just another polling metric.
Whether you're attending a family dinner where everyone's pretending not to talk about politics, or you're just strolling through a farmers' market hoping to be recognized for your nuance, this tee helps you wear your delusions with pride.
