Strap the fuck in, American people of the Fediverse. This table of lunatics is about to make your lives much harder and more dangerous.
Hate to say it, but the US isn’t the only country that is fucked. The impact is going to be felt worldwide and in a harsh way.
We’ll see how long places like Ukraine and Taiwan will last.
Ugh, the more I think about it the more I realize how bad it’s going to be.
There could be (rare) upsides. If they go through with 50% or higher tarrifs, electronics prices in EU might come down due to dumping.

McDonald’s Unhappy Meal
Not a single sauce opened, no bites taken, nothing removed from an annoying tray lip and placed on the table like a real person. No sign whatsoever that they are actually eating this junk. The half eaten fries are staged as eating without the ketchup that is right there on the tray is quite unlikely.
This is a staged ad. It is meant to be a message to others in corporate America, and for marketing to convenient idiots to quote the Russian term.
It’ both. The before eating pics are always more PR friendly. Trump loves McDonald’s because he has no taste
Apparently he eats so much McDonald's because he's paranoid about being poisoned and thinks sending someone there to get his food anonymously makes him more safe somehow. It makes you wonder where that paranoia came from once you also learn that this was first reported seven years ago.
Paranoia of some non-existent foe and right-wingers
Name a more iconic duo

I hope they all have strokes.
Given the average age (and diet), there's hope yet

Caravan of Fools comes to mind…
The dark and distant drumming
The pounding of the hooves
The silence of everything that moves
Late at night you'll see them
Decked out in shiny jewels
The coming of the caravan of fools
Like the wings of a dove
The waiter's white glove
Seems to shimmer by the light of the pool
Some dull, blinding winter
When you can't help but lose
You're running with the caravan of fools
Love and devotion, deep as any ocean
Don't play by anybody's rules
With your carousel of horses
And your unforeseen forces
You're running with the caravan of fools
Caravan of fools, caravan of fools
You're running with the caravan of fools

Fun fact: RFK jr plans to ban most of the ingredients of the junk food he is currently eating
“The stuff that he eats is really, like, bad,” he said on [a] podcast, in an episode that aired Tuesday. “Campaign food is always bad, but the food that goes onto that airplane is like just poison. You have a choice between—you don’t have the choice, you’re either given KFC or Big Macs. That’s when you’re lucky and then the rest of the stuff I consider kind of inedible.”
-- RFK Jr. a few days ago
Edit: to be fair, his expression in this picture does make him look more than a little disgusted

The man whose brain worm died of starvation.
i'm comforted by the fact that everyone in this picture despises everyone else in this picture. the thought that trump probably hates elmo because of his giant hands makes me happy
He's totally hiding his tiny hands under the table. What's he hiding under there? Very rude to not keep your hands visible while eating.

Wow can you imagine the inane conversations that happen sitting at a table with these assholes? That literallly sounds like torture.
It’s like Fiona Apple said about sitting in a private theater doing coke with Tarantino and Paul Thomas Anderson was a catalyst to never do coke again, this would be a catalyst to never breathing or living on this earth again.
The conversations would be insane because I bet ever single one of them would be a one upper.
RFK Jr would probably tell some story about cutting the head off a Bald Eagle then Elon would chime in about the time his personal Tesla flew to Mars with a Bald Eagle inside it, that's what was in the suit.
Trump would try and say it was actually not a Bald Eagles in the Tesla but it was him and the Air Force launched a second rocket top secret rocket to pick him up, it was the biggest rocket.
And lastly Don Jr or Eric which even kid that is would start to tell a story and Trump would interrupt him and talk over him telling a story about the time he sexually assaulted some random women but since he has zero self awareness he would frame it as a good time.

Is that Leonard Leo in the back? (Right side)
That's the master vampire! If we stake him, the rest lose their powers!
No, that's Mike "My son and I know each other's porn habits" Johnson.
Dang it. He's not the master vampire.
Mike Johnson, Speaker of the House
