Sometimes I miss the 2016 version of myself, where I would get a mild dopamine boost about funny jokes about the orange man, or seeing a celebrity endorse my favorite DNC war criminal - blissfully unaware of global politics, war, and genocide.

    They’re setting themselves up for failure so hard with the obsession over McDonalds lol.

    Trump is doing optics at a beloved American fast food chain and Kamala is campaigning with Liz Cheney who literally everyone hates. And somehow to libs this is great news for them.

      I laughed when I saw trump at McDonald’s at first but then I realized that it was a pretty good move from his campaign (it makes him more relatable) and probably the first time he has ever worked a real job in his life.

        He thought you put the fries in with your hands. He couldn’t even imagine that there would have been a tool to protect the worker and the food… Definitely never seen the back of a McDonald’s before let alone a real job lol.

          I feel like if all he did was film himself working at McDonald’s from now until election day he would win in a landslide.

          i think its more than that, it shows he never actually uses an actual kitchen.

          this is something that i simultaneously already expected of someone like him and got my mind blown. that man’s reality is actually so distant from the average joe. maybe he even believes his own bullshit.

      Trump should do his inauguration in front of a McDonalds. At the end he dawns the standard issue McDonalds apron and visor and walks triumphantly through the doors and into the kitchen. Or just walk in and order a meal it’s all equally funny
