Dan Savage is many things - a journalist, author, and LGBT+ activist just to name a few. He also lives up to his last name by laying down some of the most, well, savage burns against the GOP (or really anyone who gets in the way of equality - the majority of them just happen to be Republican politicians).
After a few years of quiet from the unfiltered Savage, he's back at it again. This time, he's going after POTUS himself.
Let's refresh. Back in 2003, Senator Rick Santorum was very vocal about his stance against homosexuality and same-sex marriage. Due to his anti-equality beliefs, and downright vicious attacks on the LGBT community in his speeches, Santorum quickly gained an enemy in Savage. This came to a boiling point when Dan coined a new term that is still used to this day.
santorum (san-TOR-um) n.: 1. The frothy mixture of lube and fecal matter that is sometimes the by-product of anal sex.
In a recent series of tweets, Dan gave us all - at least those of us into anilingus - a new term to use. 'MAGA', which is used by Trump and his followers, and stands for 'Make America Great Again', now means something entirely different.

Dan was sure to admit that he didn't come up with the phrase himself, but I for one am sure glad he chose to share it.
I didn't come up with it -- seen it floating around here and elsewhere. Merely signal boosting & endorsing! #maga #MyAssGotAte https://t.co/UPGEcS0HNz

We've all heard a lot of jabs at Trump, but this one is definitely one of the greats. Keep up the good work, Dan, YOU GODDAMN AMERICAN HERO!
