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.

It was supposed to be a PR stunt about No Taxes on Tips, that's why the press was all hanging around to take pictures when the Door Dasher showed up.

Then Trump comes out and the press asks him about his blasphemous Easter post, and he offered his outlandish excuse that he was supposed to be a doctor, completely blowing his PR stunt.

He probably didn't even tip her, he's a proven scumbag cheapskate. Just the pleasure of serving him is tip enough.

It'll be good enough for his base, who is willing to believe anything to rationalize his behavior.

That's what it is. It doesn't have to be a plausible story, just a story, something they can repeat with confidence, and just scream "TDR!" at anyone who tries to mock them.
