Still sporting as much of a tan as Greta can, the Swedish professional activist joined a support group of people suffering from the humiliation of failed political stunts. While Greta did not know who Senator Padilla is, or what a Senator is, the two made a connection.

“They were the two newest members,” Group Leader Joy Fullsom said. “So, they had a natural affinity. I mean, what were they thinking? Greta’s yacht voyage to a war zone, and Mr. Padilla storming a Cabinet member protected by the Secret Service! Hoo boy!”

While Fullsom acknowledged they were pretty hardcore cases, she was confident the group could help them.

“On their first visit they were welcomed to the ‘Circle of Self Love,’ where newbies stand in the middle while the other members of the group circle them and softly sing Ring Around The Rosie, but instead of the lyrics, “We all fall down,” they sing, “We get back up.”

Surprisingly, Fullsom was not reluctant to share the names of others in the group.

“We tell them there’s no shame in embarrassing yourself,” Fullsom said, thus puzzling our reporter.

Other members of the group include:

Gale King for calling herself an astronaut after her 11 minute ride up into the air;

Bernie Sanders, for being a socialist;

Corey Booker for his long-winded Senate speech which no one remembers;

Maxine Waters for everything she says;

Oregon’s Junior Senator Merkley who introduced legislation called the WIPPES Act, to regulate what gets flushed down a toilet. (The legislation is currently clogged in the Senate)

Fullsom related that after learning they were both US Senators, Merkley and Padilla formed a bond, but still have trouble remembering each other’s names, just like everyone else.

Apparently, there has been so much demand to join the group that Fullsom has had to limit membership.

“Former Vice President Harris was not admitted to this group since her self-own behaviors are congenital, not learned,” Fullsom said. “She will need commitment to get the help she needs.”
