    Person wearing door dash grandma shirt… Supposedly drives up to the white house door, and Trump supposedly answerers…

    Talk about a load of faked propaganda. There is like 500+staff members at the White House. And no way would the secret service let the president take packages from a random person without screening everything.

      If it was that easy to get to trump, I assume someone would have door-dash’d him something lethal already.

      She stated during the event she was there for a reason. Trump asked her for her opinion on trans folks in sports, and she said “I have no opinion on that. I’m here about taxes on tips.” She was deadpan with it too

        Yeah, this fuck invited her to the White House to thank him on live tv for the big beautiful bill removing the requirement to be taxed on tips because she drives DoorDash to pay for her husbands cancer treatment and he fucking snubbed her to talk about himself for 30 minutes and then she invited her and her husband to the UFC fight he’s holding at the whitehouse.

        What a disaster for this poor woman and for this country. Our own personal Nero.

        right, all bets are off. Perhaps they’re feeling overconfident from their warmongering, you know, buffed up, thus getting sloppy

          well, due to Polymarket, all bets are ON… but only the privileged few know enough to make those bets.

          otherwise… enjoy the rollercoaster!

          For enjoyment (not suicide) I recommend 2-3g of 20%+ cannabis and your favorite bourbon!
          that’s how I’m making it through my Monday!

            Here’s my thing…if Polymarket is just being used to pay bets that are obvious scams, eventually (read: real fuckin quick) Polymarket would shut that shit down. The mob don’t let cheaters into their casinos and win big every week. They break the guys thumbs, kneecaps, or maybe just off the guy.

            So it makes me think that Polymarket isn’t so much a legit betting rig, as it is a money washing service probably set up by trumps people. They pump the money into Polymarket behind the scenes, win big every week, and Polymarket funnels the money right back into their accounts. With a traceable paper trail to them free and clear from the IRS.

            I have no proof of this. It just doesn’t pass the smell test. Then again, trump in person probably smells awful too.

      It’s real, but 1000% staged. No way secret service would have let an unvetted Doordash driver approach the front door of the White House, let alone meet the President in person. It’s a publicity stunt.

      Despite this, some people still believe it’s an organic moment, as if any Doordash driver would be comfortable just standing there as a political prop for two hours instead of running more deliveries.

          It was a stunt to try to remind people that he pushed for no taxes on tips, which was a part of both his and Harris’ platforms.

          Since inflation is again going up and particularly gas prices are up and he has nearly zero good news, he has to try to milk his tip tax policy as much as he can.

    That’s about as American as it gets.

    “The American president stuffs with fast food before ordering annihilation of innocent people”

    That about sums up my opinion of Americans - fast food and wars.

        i’m pretty sure our president hates weed. true ultrapatriot hardline conservatives despise it because it opens up your mind or, in their view, makes you lazy

        also it’s impossible to overdose on it lol

          Overdoses dont have to be deadly. You can definitely overdose on weed. Source: I have done it many times.

    Full text of Melania Trump statement denying links to Epstein

    I have never had any knowledge of Epstein’s abuse of his victims. I was never involved in any capacity—I was not a participant, was never on Epstein’s plane, and never visited his private island.

    I have never been legally accused or convicted of a crime in connection with Epstein’s sex trafficking, abuse of minors, and other repulsive behavior.

      For context:

      Decades of photographic and testimonial evidence repudiate every word of her statement other that the technical fact that she has never been convicted of any crimes related to Jeffery Epstein… yet

      There are decades of videographer, photographic, textual, and testimonial evidence that she absolutely and without a doubt both know and was very close with Jeffrey Epstein _ for many, many years) before AND after meeting and marrying Trump. This is - and has long been established - in not only the Trump-Epstein Files, but in many other outside documentation.

      Melania was a widely-circulated whore for almost a decade before even being introduced to Trump. Just Trump’s type. And it’s been widely documented.

          Wasn’t she semi-nude in some of the pics already released? That would make her a sex worker, maybe? She probably was trafficked at a young age. She seems like she probably was a sex worker at the very least. Whore seems harsh for anyone.

            She was officially a model, so semi nude might still fit her work. Even full nude might be just art or legit money income 🤷
