The Washington dating scene is on fire — and not in the fun way. We dig into new reporting on why pro-Trump singles are struggling to find partners in the bluest city in America, where 92% of voters went Democrat and MAGA staffers are now speed-dating each other at partisan mixers because they’re tired of being called fascists on Hinge. You’ll meet the women who moved to D.C. looking for “masculine, faith-driven providers” and instead found overworked political guys who ghost after six weeks because they’re already plotting their next job. And yes, there are now matchmaking events built around “Did you attend January 6th?” as a screening question. Then we look at Elon Musk’s new “Grokipedia,” his AI-run Wikipedia clone that claims to be the unbiased alternative while pushing a right-leaning spin on culture-war topics and playing up Musk as a visionary. Critics — including Wikipedia’s own Jimmy Wales — say it’s sloppy, plagiarized from Wikipedia, and already full of errors. We connect the dots: Trumpworld is trying to build its own government, its own media, and now apparently its own dating pool and its own encyclopedia.
