The Trump Presidency

IP has the right idea. Get rid of the war on drugs. It's such a useless venture they will never, ever win. The criminalization of drugs is a big part of why Mexico is such a shit show due to US pressure and it doesn't do a damn thing. If we made it legal to grow and distribute they would follow suit. We'd make them rich and cut out the cartels

You can't stop people from using drugs. All you can do is educate them and give them a safe place to use them, like those clinics in Canada. We've also spent obscene amounts of money teaching celibacy to no avail.

Bacon is right, too. Streamline and fix legal immigration so it's not such a shit show. That'll take some of the pressure off.

If you can't see that Trump is demonizing immigrants for gain to a greater extreme than any other president, I don't know what to tell you.

Trump was a giant piece of shit looooong before he was President, and he's hardly done anything to turn that image around since. I'm having a hard time understanding how some people are blind to that.

Real answer? Racism.

Dog whistling about those savage emotional brown people. Might also be woman hating. "What does this woman know? She is too embarrassed to think soundly."

Goes out the window when it's their guy though.

I meant too emotional, but embarrassed is funnier. Kudos phone.

SQUI

So much for MAGA?

Rashida Tlaib's "impeach the motherfucker" comment was awesome. Trump's moaning about her using that language is hypocrisy. He's used 3 F-bombs in a recent meeting.

Goodbye Electoral College?
Rep. Steve Cohen (D-TN) wants a constitutional amendment that would abolish the Electoral College. Cool, sounds like a plan.

toddler in chief wants to declare a national emergency

"Landlords will probably work with people not receiving pay... landlords are great" says former landlord successfully sued for race discrimination.

Trump in massively televised debates: 'Yeah I like to welch on paying people, so what'
Gov't workers who voted Trump: 'Well I'm a good worker so that couldn't happen to me'
Trump: 'Hey let's shut the government down and hold people's wages hostage if I don't get what I want'
Gov't workers who voted Trump: surprisedpikachuface.gif

Calling him a motherfucker is wrong. He very clearly wants to fuck his daughter.

He has. Even when she was underage. That's what Russia's got on him.

I want that to be true and for it to be public. That would be so entertaining.

They have video evidence, some even produced by him. I'll be interested to see the legal discussions about it if he ever decides to stop being a puppet and Russia tips their hand.

Wow you librels sure do have some sick fantasies.

She is cute. She'd probably been a better president.

My 5 year old niece would have been a better president. She knows as much about the world as he does and cries less

I'm game. Probably has a better stance on many issues.

I believe this. Just pick anyone at random in public, & there's a 99.977% chance of finding someone who could do the job better than Trump.

Words words words!!! That was a weird bunch of non related words on the presidential address!!!

Gotta keep out all those drugs that come in on boats and trucks. Best way to do that is to put up a steel wall where none of those vehicles ever travel.

I want to see him clutch his chest and fall over on television.

Forrest from Bravo Team? I heard he got pecked to death by crows.

lol. and the people in the "forrest" areas of CA are who voted for him, obviously. He and daddy Gavin Newsom are going to duke it out on some sort of celebrity deathmatch. (Which I would happily watch!)

You presume I want to see him get back up.

Jesus can't even spell Forest...

Well he only spoke Aramaic, so that's understandable.

“Led out”? Way I see it, either he dodges prison altogether, or he dies behind bars looooooong before his sentence is up.

Trump was against the Electoral College, until it bought him his cheap win.

In 2012 he said "The electoral college is a disaster for a democracy... This election is a total sham and a travesty. We are not a democracy!" Ahem... did he even stop & consider that Romney lost the popular vote also, by about 5 million?
Let's jump forward to 2016. "The Electoral College is actually genius in that it brings all states, including the smaller ones, into play. Campaigning is much different!" Pretzel logic. The states with lower electoral vote counts are marginalized because of the EC.

While Trump & Pence didn't campaign in 26 states, Clinton & Kaine didn't do that in 3/4 of the country. I think C&K should've gone to more states.

There's no such thing as shame, don't even worry about it.

There's a picture we'll never live down.

There's gotta be a full bush worth of pubes in that feast.

That's about $200 in fast food, big spender.

America is finally great again.

This picture perfectly illustrates how they say that Trump is a poor person's idea of a rich guy. There are trailer parks full of people who are salivating at this picture right now and thinking, "by gum, he sure do dere got der life, ah tell yew wut."

By the way, you know all of that food is cold. Gross.

I'll bet there wasn't a moment's thought given to restricted or alternative diets. Not that I expect a bunch of jocks to have either of those.

Also, he's not really very much fun any more. We used to be able to laugh at the absurdity but the joke is super played out now. He's like the dancing baby gif of real life. I remember that shit was hilarious but now it's stale af.

That picture is like a scene from a comedy where 12 year-old Macaulay Culkin is elected president. I mean, there are silver gravy boats filled with McNugget sauces.

Meh, I'd take it right about now.

At least some local place made some money and got a good story out of it.

If this was all he did we'd be better off.

No, it probably would have been better if he had actually plunked down a few more bucks and hired a locally-owned restaurant to cater the event.

Actually, some of the players at the reception were joking around about their nutritionist being pissed off at what they were eating at evening, lol.

I won't normally defend him but getting upset about this isn't much better than getting upset that Obama's salutes were not salutey enough or how dare he stop for a burger on one of his trips.

It's silly. Whatever. It means nothing compared to shit like wic not being funded in 16 days.

I don't think it's that bad, but no one's making it out to be. I would say this is actually still quite a bit worse than the two examples you mentioned. Plus it is newsworthy in its embarrassment. You have Dipshit Cheeto serving burgers because the government is non functional. The Shreveport Shitbowl runners-up get a better meal than this at the pregame banquet, and these guys are the National Champs.

Yup. It's just another in the many, many ways that Trump has cheapened the office of the presidency in the eyes of the world.

Guys, you're playing into his hands. He wants you to get snooty about the food so his base, that probably eats fast food 10 times a week, will see your comments and vote for him again out of spite.

This part is true. With any luck, 'Oumuamua actually *is* an alien sail and they'll come destroy us all.

Oh wow, all gone in an hour, he didn't even order enough to cover the party.

McDonalds, Wendy's, & Burger King of all places? Shut up! :lol: Like Dolemite said, why didn't Mr. Rich Baddspelah get a decent local restaurant to cater? Really tacky.
I don't know whether to laugh at his base or pity them.

Better not miss SNL this weekend.

Elitism Trap is Highly Effective!

You should actually miss SNL every weekend.

I wouldn't say I miss it.

Fast food is delicious, supports an American staple, and consequently is food that a lot of people identify with because of how accessible it is. Criticism of it for having no class may be the most careless and callous reaction the opposition could have taken. Acute lack of both self and class awareness.

I can't imagine those stale fast food being any good sitting there for hours beforehand.

Yep, there were a lot of complaints there, per sources

There's no defending this, that's just ridiculous. Fast food is delicious, fucking lol.

There's a world of difference between the Pres stopping for a burg some time and this ridiculoua punchline of a man catering with fast food for a dinner at the White House? Get outta here with that shit.

Donald has proven time and time again that money doesn't buy class.

Careful, someone might vote for Steve King in Iowa again because you said that

And totally not because racism

It would have been less meme-able, but the idea of acknowledging the hardship of millions that Trump himself is causing by feeding a single room full of people looks pretty fucking bad regardless of what's being served.

Hey so today the gop voted against Russian sanctions but didn't vote to reopen the government and pay almost 1 million people

priorities amirite

Well, now I know what the opposite of "spare no expense" looks like. He wants praise for being a cheapskate too? And like Dole said, ugh cold McDonalds. Isn't the Trump Hotel just down the street? The place that does catering for events?

Nah, it's as simple as "Trump likes cheap fast food so he bought a bunch of cheap fast food." It's just a clear cut case of a rich man having dollar store tastes.

Which might be somewhat commendable if it was part of an encompassing ethos; If he was a rich man that lived on street level and tried not be wasteful with his money, but the fast food thing isn't part of somesuch noble sentiment. He gets on his private jet to his country club to golf and hang a few new $100,000 paintings of himself and eats a Big Mac on the way; That's not slumming it, that's just him liking garbage.

The bad policy he rallies for, the lies he gets called on, the bad taste he displays, the retarded tweets, stop treating them like they're expert grandmaster strategies. He's a shit person with shit taste that does shit things, full stop. Any recontextualization that he's just playing a shit person to own the libs is sloppy wallpaper added after-the-fact.

eh, putting bigmacs on a silver platter isn't exactly a grand super plan.

We're talking snl skit level silliness. Anyone could have thought this up.

But they didn’t.

But class has everything to do with it when he's pandering to the broader population? And yes, a little fast food here and there is something everyone has enjoyed in their lives. It's an experience people generally get when they're not trying to play politics. It's a classist and intolerant reaction playing in to Trump as a pres for the common. And it's dumb because it's such an obvious honeypot troll.

I know it's not a true depiction of Trump but it's one the left had gifted to him w their reaction to frickin hamburgers. I probably shouldn't be surprised by how bad the left is at modern political strategy. But this reaction lacked a surprising amount of empathy and compassion that was straight up gross.

I'm supposed to believe you idiots are bourgeoisie all of a sudden?

Cardi B is the voice of the nation.

Civility tho, can't risk losing those voters that weren't going to vote any other way to begin with

I'm not particularly fancy, but I sure as shit didn't feed my guests McDonald's at my wedding. I'm not taking my wife to McDonald's on our anniversary. I don't think that makes me a snob rallying against the good olé boys of the USA. I still eat fast food from time to time.

I'm the first to say sports are bullshit and these athletes are glorified way past a point that's sane, but where would you rank a dinner gala with the President on the "I should give a shit and put some effort into this" scale.

What empathy or compassion? I don't get this at all. Not being an incosiderate piece of shit to your guests has nothing to do with class and position. This asshole is up here doing steamed hams irl, why is anyone defending him?

This is insane.

As a noteworthy southern team, I'm fairly certain the Clemson team gets practices and games catered by Chik-fil-a on the regular.

A White House reception for the national champions yielded food that was a lesser quality than what the coaches and boosters get them on any given Saturday. That's nuts, y/n?

So does everyone that isn't a total ignoramus, so I am honestly not sure why attempting to pander to the others is a fruitful exercise.

Anyone that says "and THAT'S why I'm gonna keep voting this way" is being disingenuous. They weren't going to do anything different.

You had a bunk fil-a experience I think. It’s generally pretty good.

Yeah, chick fil a rules hard.

My point isn't about the food. It's about what it represents to a large amount of people and how it's a poor choice for a political side to put their foot in their mouth and insult people for associating with a fast food meal. That's what Trump did even though the choice was odd. Doubly embarrassing for a party supposedly safeguarding the poor. Safeguarding but not understanding I guess.

I generally like fast food. I eat it probably once a year but I get why people love it.

they should be more like Trump, with a penthouse of gold and his own jet

that is the true common man

people should just stick with Hilary not going to some states

I'd I'm ever wealthy I'm going to do this. The images are just funny. I'm just not getting the outrage. It's funny. Like something the kid in BIG would do.

no one is outraged though

Maybe no one's point is about the food, hmm? It's about the context around it.

If Trump associated with fast food meals by actually walking into a restaurant every now and then and getting down among the common people, I'd respect that. He never ever ever ever does that, though. He gets his interns to deliver him fast food on his plane, to his penthouse, to his mansion. I'm sure he's yelled at them for not having it waiting for him and plated just the way he likes it when he walks in.

Logistically, it's probably more of an imposition on the people around him to do this than for him to just have a meal made at or near where he actually is. Just like I'm sure it was more of an annoying production for a small army of White House employees to run around to several fast food joints, load up hundreds of fragile little cardboard boxes into their vehicles making sure everything stayed pristine for the photo op he wanted to do, and stage everything just so for that photo op, than it would have been to just use the WH's giant kitchen to whip up some buffet trays they could then carry one room over to the reception hall.

Yes I understand your intent to rebuke the president for the shutdown. The stronger message being sent is that the Whitehouse is where silver platters and sundried tomato garlic aoili's belong, not the common rabble food. The idea that government is full of ignorant elite is the main basis for Trump being in office. So it helps him. And hatred for the POTUS, much of it justified, doesn't translate and isn't useful here. It generally just means ridiculing the most widely accessible food to any middle and lower class Americans. It's a bad look.

I'd like the left to get another run in office in the next eight years. The continual display of ignorance towards a huge swath of the people they serve has me doubting and annoyed. Fool me once shame on you (Hilary losing). Fool me twice...

And yet these people are voting for people even more ignorant and "elite", people that work far more against their own interests? I'm talking about the 35% here, as everyone knows if an election were held today, Trump would not win (evidence A: record setting margin voting in the 2018 election)

so either:

this group of people is dumb as shit and it really doesn't matter what you do or
this group of people likes it this way and it really doesn't matter what you do

the only people offended by people laughing at a cold fast food banquet are people just looking to be offended and are selectively offended, example 1 out of 5 billion, getting all uppity about a Dem rep saying "impeach the motherfucker" when referring to someone who has obviously crossed the line into "doing things impeachment worthy" versus tumbleweeds time when a Rep makes clearly racist comments and does racist things and continues to do so (and has for some time)

That group will keep voting this way, and those states/areas will keep falling further behind nationally--economically, educationally, etc

So I am not going to go "but fast food!", because if you eschew policy because someone criticized a bunch of fast food in one setting, then something is wrong with you


and I probably like fast food more than Trump does

Trump may be an idiot but someone on staff isn't. It's amazing he continues to get away with base level "look at the birdy" cons. People are all upset at fast food and ignoring that a sizable number of children are going to starve when wic runs out.

But he isn't? And no one is ignoring this? On non-late night show TV, I heard about fast food for a segment? He's only "getting away with it" because the Senate is letting him do it. The house has put a 100-0 Senate bill on the floor multiple times. In any non-dysfunctional government, WIC would be back on.

If only that decision can impact just the red areas. Oh well. Guess people were mad someone made fun of hamberders, that was more important than feeding their kids.
