TODAY: we're back after a brief illness/forgetfulness break to talk abut political halloween decorations, both good and bad, and why putting a giant "PEDOPHILES" sign on your lawn might not be the best way to own the libs. ALSO: Trump ACTUALLY works at McDonalds, which means so much to the average worker, unless you're making fun of him in which case it was actually a savvy move to troll Kamala Harris (?)

Moving on to more election-related stuff, we've got to talk about Trump at McDonald's because no one's going to give a shit about this in a few days.
We're already nearing the end of the shelf life for this story, but wow.
Did you see this, Tony?
Yeah, pretty cool stuff.
Man of the people.
Love to see it.
Yeah, you know, we all thought the photo of him bleeding with his fist in the air, like, that was what was gonna get him elected.
That's what was gonna push him over the edge and raise him up to this, you know, untouchable level of, like...
Fascistic authoritarianism, you know?
But no, it's the picture of him in the drive-thru window waving sadly at a customer.
A quote, customer driving away.
Have you seen this photo?
I've seen a few of them.
I'm not sure which one you're talking about.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, he's like, yeah, he's like sad to see him go.
So it says this is being shared by some dipshit named Lee on X who says this is a Norman Rockwell painting.
And it's a photo of Trump leaning out the drive through with a McDonald's apron on that nobody fucking way.
Like, do you they way?
I haven't been inside of a McDonald's in a while.
Do they wear the apron?
I think maybe some people are, like in the back, or maybe cooking, but I don't see an apron.
But I don't know when the last time I've been to fucking McDonald's, but still, I can't picture it.
It's because he's wearing a fucking dress shirt and his red tie, so he doesn't want to put on the actual uniform like a real employee would have to do, like an actual worker would have to do.
That's beneath him.
Frankly, he gets to play act as the manager of a McDonald's and still do much less work than the manager of a McDonald's would do.
But he gets to keep his professional attire on.
That's, I don't know, that's like a red flag for me.
Because I worked fast food and I wore a greasy ass polo top that smelled like pizza.
Well, that's because you weren't excellent at your job.
If you really loved your job, you would show up, you know, not just for the job you have, but the job you want, which is President of the United States.
So a white button-down dress shirt and a red tie.
Look at his face.
Yeah, he's like kind of grimacing.
He's kind of sad.
Yeah, he looks sad.
He looks worried.
He looks worried that the person driving away is never going to come back.
Yeah.
Like, it's almost like they said something before he left.
Okay, so, yeah, I don't, like, how much more to say about this?
I mean, because...
It's just clear to me that this is going to win him the white working class because he did a photo where he's playing like he has a job.
And so many of us are so stupid and mentally like babies that we're like, he does the thing that I do.
Yeah.
That I did.
Yeah.
And so yeah, we're finished, bro.
I don't know.
It's very funny.
Yeah, like, okay, this, wow, this is like a Norman Rockwell painting.
And Elon Musk replies, this is fantastic.
And then the original poster, Lee, says, thank you, Elon.
Saluting emoji.
I don't think Elon was saying you were fantastic for tweeting about how in love with Trump you were.
No, I don't think so at all.
Yeah, I think, like you said, I think this was very much like, oh, look at how cool Donald Trump is.
Look how down-to-earth he is.
This is fantastic.
Yeah, this is what these guys are saying.
So, like, George Alexopoulos, he's that guy, he's like that Instagram comic artist who does, like, Kamala with a strained face because she's screaming at the child of a dead veteran.
She's so insane.
He's that guy.
He's got a photo of Trump putting fries in a fry holder.
He says, I've delivered pizza, worked registers, brewed coffee, and served food.
Anyone who says Trump pulled a stunt today has no idea how much this gesture means to the common American.
How does this mean anything?
I would feel so condescended if this happened while I was on shift.
Oh, cool.
You're going to fucking do one bucket of fries that you're going to eat yourself.
You know he ate those himself.
There's no way around it.
And you're going to take your little photo ops and you're going to leave and you're not going to do anything about us getting paid more money or anything like that.
I would be so annoyed.
But he's like, nah.
He came down to our level.
He did that for us.
Yeah.
I would actually...
I feel kind of like I may be the opposite of you, Tony, because the only way...
Politics aside, the only way some celebrity doing this kind of a stunt...
The only way I would get anything out of that is if they came to my store and I got to talk to Donald Trump about my job.
I got to tell him all the little fucking details about my job and I got to show him how to do things the right way, you know, and how the machine worked and all that.
That's the only way I would get anything out of it.
Oh, cool.
Another worker got to watch Donald Trump put fries in a little box.
How dog-brained do you have to be to get anything out of that?
Yeah, you can even get a chance to show them how to clean out the deep fryer by doing a basket of ice into it.
That's how I would get something out of it, is by doing something like that.
I don't know if a Secret Service would let them do that.
