I'm not one to defend this orange man baby, however there is no way this image can be real. I don't even think it's AI, looks like good old fashioned photoshop.

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.

Naw, It's real, It was set up by a PR agency with a real photographer.

This is propaganda.

Interesting. Guess him ordering doordash is supposed to distract us from the fact he is a pedophile somehow?

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.
