Pete Strzok, now podcast cohost of Cleanup On Aisle 45 commented that seeing RFKjr in this pic reminded him of the old drug-cartel vetting practice of getting the new guy to sample the product (by nose or freebase, usually) to show that they’re true undergrounders and not a law-enforcement plant.
So does he have a mini McDonald’s on his plane? Because that shot doesn’t have the best heat retention, so if he doesn’t have one then that’s some cold as or horribly reheated McDonald’s.
This reminds me of so many comments from Americans saying how embarrassing Biden is as a president and that no one takes 🇺🇸’Murica🦅 seriously anymore under the Democrats. It was weird to read as a foreigner because I loosely remember what Trump was like. And now here we are again. Hope Americans are proud.
Nahhh… we’re pretty fucking disappointed… Least everyone I know with half a brain.
I wish I knew someone who was disappointed. The only two people in my life that aren’t Trumpers are my daughter and her fiance. Everyone else thinks that gas will get back to $1/gallon and food prices will return to pre Covid levels on Jan 21.
Sheeeesh, sorry to hear you’re living deep in the red. Proud of my state for being a spot of blue in a sea of red, but hot damn that election map was bleak.
It’s so wild how absolutely bonkers the political climate has become just in my lifetime. There was some real optimism when I got to vote for Obama as an 18 year old. Would’ve never seen all this coming…

Unfortunately, all this is pretty much a backlash to that event.
Yup. We elected the black guy (twice), and people lost their fucking minds.
Dude was a moderate, center-right, President, but none of that mattered. They spent 8 years fantasizing about lynching him.
And now this is our retribution.
Here’s an alternate theory:
Back then both parties tended to use the “slimy posh salesman” kind of deceit (half lies, misleading statements, promises left unfulfilled with twisted excuses given for it) and what happened was that Republicans, almost against their will (Trump was an outsider) stumbled upon the “strongman saying what people want to hear using straight talking language” technique of deceit.
It was a massive success because people had been fed the same kind of posh-saleman deceit (with pretty much all the media having gone along with it and turning into de facto propaganda outlets) for decades, found the new sort of discourse refreshing and comparatively trustworthy (even though it was still bullshit, just delivered differently, because it did not sound at all like the usual bullshit it seemed trustworthier to many and all the media that had chosen sides and gone along unquestionigly with the old style of deceit wasn’t trusted anymore so all their denouncing of the “other side’s lies” was ignored)
Whilst the Republicans did adjust to that unexpected success quickly, the Democrats did not and just kept using with their usual deceit techniques spread via the media-outlets to which lots of the electorate had built a resistance to, and acting to favour the usual people when in government.
So here we are today with a lying populist getting power for a second time in the American Two-Party system.
The thing is we had Obama and dem control of the legislature and we still didn’t get universal healthcare, or even basic shit like minimum wage indexed to inflation. It’s no wonder low-information voters think democrats suck at “the economy”.
I still think musk had something to do with it and not in a strictly legal way. Would explain how he has managed to stay close to the orange for so long unchecked.
I think it’s revealing that apparently as long as gas and eggs are okay, the country falling completely apart is secondary (to the voting majority).
Gas is the big one. I don’t hear as much complaining about food where I am.
The whole thing is going to look fucking stupid once EVs take off. Although I bet Trump will do everything to slow that once elected (even with Musk in his ear).
You know that they can just stop EVs from taking off, right? We elected an autocrat.
They can also stop infrastructure for it from being built, and perhaps even tear down existing infrastructure. Well, aside from the ones Tesla owns of course. At least until he and Elon have their falling out
My theory is that they will institute a tax on old products so that buying new items is the same or cheaper than buying new.
What will they think when those things don’t happen? Some conspiracy shit?
Cognitive dissonance - They’ll find some way to blame it on Biden/Harris/Newsom/Pelosi.
“Thanks, Obama!”
Biden will be taking the blame for all the problems over the next couple of years.
And Trump will take credit for the good policies that Biden implemented, if he manages to not fuck it up.
It’s those brown people in Iran! We better start another 20 year invasion!
Time to start beating your wife, she’s actively asking for it. If she’s your ex make sure to remind her that project 2025 wants to make her existence illegal.
It’s always projection with conservatives.
What is actually embarrassing is that the US elected Reagan, twice, then G.W Bush, twice, and now Donald Trump, twice.
As the great scholar Bush once said:
There’s an old saying in Tennessee — I know it’s in Texas, probably in Tennessee — that says, fool me once, shame on — shame on you. Fool me — you can’t get fooled again
Prophetic.
Fool me one time, shame on you
Fool me twice, can’t put the blame on you
Fool me three times, fuck the peace sign
Load the chopper, let it rain on you
The first time I flew out of the US after Trump became president I was so embarrassed of being American because of all the questions about his crazy ass. When I landed back in the US and saw his portrait on the wall in the airport, I stared at it perplexingly trying to understand what the fuck his stupid face was doing there….then it hit me that it’s there cause he was the president. Trump is a laughing stock and him at the helm of the US makes all Americans laughing stock for allowing this country to elect an orange makeup-caked, lying, shyster.
So glad we get to do it again!!
Honestly, in my social circle we’re all kinda treating it like this… strange, self-inflicted, natural disaster. Like we can’t even really joke about it, still. It’s like we all know it’s gonna be bad, the only question is how bad it’s going to be. There’s a lot I’m hoping is over-reaction, but honestly that’s a pretty shitty thing to hope for and a hard hope to maintain all things considered.
Those were probably fake accounts
They are fucking wild honestly.
Imagine having $300 billion and 12 kids and this is how you choose to spend the limited time you have.
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.
You think his children would want to hang out with him?
Musk being best buds with the President of the USA is legit friggin’ scary, speaking as a foreigner.
Then you remember that Trump, and it becomes terrifying.

then I remember that trump… what? I’m also “a foreigner” (meaning I don’t live in the shithole known as the US), but that’s an incomplete sentence
Probably meant that’s, or at least I read it that way
Nope, ‘that Trump.’ That Trump still exists, that he is president again, that he’s doing what he’s doing, or everything at once, so I just remember that Trump. To me, that’s enough.
I just love how this has become the most controversial thing I’ve ever posted on the internet =))
Have you ever heard someone say “I can’t even” as a complete statement? Seems like the same sentiment/vibe.
Never has more divorce been captured in a single photograph
I wonder if Mike had to text his son when Trump brought the hookers out immediately after this photo was taken.

hookersout immediately after this photo was taken.There, I fixed it for you
Do they a) have a McDonalds Kitchen on the plane b) eat warmed up Burgers and Frys c) eat lukewarm Burgers and Frys
or, possibly: d) all of the above

Trump loves McDonald’s. Remember the time he served it at the Whitehouse for some event?
This is so weird. Why is the dude displaying his fries like he’s proud of them?
what, are you saying that a douchebag isn’t allowed to be proud of his fries? I’m sorry, I thought this was America
You gotta emphasize how normal and approachable you are. A true one of the people
McDonald’s is normal.
Eating it sitting facing each other on a private jet is not normal.
Got to show off the sponsors, it is in the contract.
Brought to you by Carl’s Junior
HAH! That got me 👍
Come on! Let the kiddo feel proud!!!111
‘McDonald’s has the biggest fries, the best fries. I helped them put the fries in the box, yes, me. McDonald’s has been with me every step of the way, even when all the wrong lesbians were being mean to me… Like, comment and vote if you want to see more of this wholesome Christian content… Elon here… Elon brought his own ketchup… It has bananas in it… I don’t know about that… Bananas in the ketchup… But he knows what he’s doing… And I trust his banana ketchup… I’m not going to eat it… The banana ketchup… But I trust him and his cars.’
Because daddy famously loves McDonald’s and he’s hoping that if he shows sufficient brand loyalty that eventually daddy will love him.
The sheer amount of untreated generational trauma in this photo is astounding. I can only imagine how much less fucked up the world would be if more rich fathers could be bothered to actually raise and love their kids.
Almost certainly because he knows it’ll “trigger the libs” and he’s a massive cunt.
Republicans: We want to get rid of the elite in power.
Republicans:
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.
Yeah if RFK jr wasnt such a shitheel id feel bad for him, but he is infact a shitheel so I have only one want for him, suffering and pain.
I boycott McDonalds because of the salmonella.
I’ve never gotten food poisoning from them but lately it’s been the prices
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.
Has the same vibes as homelander forcing the deep to eat the octopus.
what does that mean? who is the crappy hamburger in this comparison lol
Reality is too much
A real meeting of the mindless.
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.
I mean unless he’s falsifying his own IQ scores he is “technically” a genius - but being intelligent doesn’t necessarily mean you’re a good person.
Or that you’re “right”.
Like I said if he is a genius by intellectual standards he’s not using it to the benefit of anyone but himself And thanks for the read lol
I’d say idiot savant at best, lol. Rainman correctly deduced the square root of 2,130, but thought cars and candy bars cost 100 bucks. I think Musk is much closer to that.
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.
Such a low IQ photo.
Who’s the red dress? Don’t recognize her?
As far as I can tell, this is a character from The Handmaid’s Tale series.
Based on a respective book, it tells about a dystopian society in which women are put to serve as nothing but baby machines, against their will.
It’s from The Handmaid’s Tale. Great TV show based on an amazing book that is all too relevant.
If you haven’t read or seen it, you should. Like right now. Before January 20th at least. Margaret Atwood made sure that everything that happens in the story is something that has happened (to women) at some point in history. Because she knew there would be men saying that it’s sensationalist, and would never happen… turns out all of it has happened.
Beware: it is harrowing. Very very very bad stuff. But sometimes it’s necessary to not turn away from these horrifying things. Especially when they’re happening again.
It’s like the authors of Project 2025 read it and used it as an instruction manual, rather than a warning.
I knew Grimace wasn’t too be trusted.
