    USA didn’t vote for a female president for the first time but at least you now have a male first lady for the first time.

    It’s a shame no one ever gave Elon Musk the “You’re good enough I guess, please stop calling your ex-wife, move on.” talk to end his midlife crisis…

      this is how you choose to spend the limited time you have

      My guess is that these guys saw someone like Bernie coming down the line at some point, a populist left wing politician who would have basically ended the billionaires free-for-all in america, and they said ‘well we gotta take over the entire government to stop this’, and people fell for it.

    In fairness to him, he looks genuinely uncomfortable just holding it for this paid publicity shot. Not enough raw bear meat in it for him.

    Boycott McDonalds, sponsors of Fascism 2025.

          I have said it before, and I’ll say it again: you can fault McD for a lot of things. You can argue that the products aren’t to your taste, or subpar in regards to nutrition. But food safety is something that the clown takes extremely serious.

          I’ve gotten sick from burger king. Once I had to decide what I’d rather wipe off the floor, because it was coming out both ways after eating Carl’s Jr. But I’ve never been poisoned by McDonald’s, nor have I talked to someone who has either.

          Last time I went on this rant, a former McDonald’s employee commented about food safety practices. They told how if you went to the bathroom and came back multiple people would ask you if you remembered to wash your hands. Not like this specific commenter, but that was just what they did to everyone. If you came in sick, you would be sent home with pay (I believe this was in the US, so it was actually extraordinary).

        He’d probably be more enthused with that given he’s one of the nutty raw milk boys.

    Wow, I can say with confidence that this is the first time I’ve ever wished for a plane to crash. Just one patriotic pilot is all it would take.

    I really don’t like that these shitstains make me feel such vitriol…

      Elon’s far from mindless. He’s just a self-serving prick who would burn a country down to increase his stan- oh wait.

      Yeah. Fuck.

      He’s potentially the most dangerous person at that table. He doesn’t want power in the limelight - though he uses the limelight when he needs to, yes - he wants power behind the scenes. And he’s very good at getting what he wants. That much should be unambiguously clear.

      And if gaining that power means helping a fascist fucking prick fuck gain dictatorial powers, well I don’t think he’d think twice.

        Agreed that he’s not mindless, but he’s a far cry from “genius”. He’s just a lucky dipshit narcissist.

        IDK, I think Trump is still the most dangerous. He’s the most unhinged, and the Supreme Court recently ruled that he can’t be punished for any of the actions he takes as president. That combination makes him scarier than the others IMO.

          You’re right, I was playing devil’s advocate to highlight that Elon is actually very detrimental to this country. Many people don’t take him seriously.

      I hope so. Less cost to the taxpayer, and the high calorie and sodium count will send Trump to an early grave.

      This was the exact sentiment that crossed my mind. The amount of money these dipshits have available and they’re eating that crap? I don’t even believe it. This HAD to be a photo op to make the idiots believe “Wow they eat what I eat” before they rolled in the burnt steak with ketchup and whatever else they actually prefer.

        Nah it’s probably legit. Trump is famous for eating like trash. His usual order is reported to be two Big Macs and a Filet-o-fish, but I only see one Big Mac on his tray so maybe he’s on a diet.

        Trump probably hates vegetables. Probably takes out the pickles and then cries about it like a little kid when Ivanka forgets to order a burger without any vegetables. So he won’t eat those tainted onions and carrots.

      Remember, this is the guy, who tried to sell steaks under his name, because “he knows steaks”, and also admitted to liking them well done with ketchup.

        Oh. Oh god. What the fuck. And rural Americans voted for that? That’s Iike if Michelangelo painted the Sistine Chapel, and the pope thanked him while personally repainting the entire thing in an awful vomit-green color.

      Oh I’m sure he’ll have a nice well-done steak with ketchup every now and then.

      And that’s why they are not going to eat any fast food, they are making ads

        When 45 was in office, the WH kitchen staff complained that they were very under-utilized compared to other presidents.

      Wait. Why would you think that? It’s a mildly prestigious post. Sure, it’s honorable, but it’s certainly not something that anybody with any type of creative flair would ever aspire to. It’s a labor of 24/8 type love.

      Yeah, but what about the promotional and kick back opportunities lost? You have to think about profits…
