She's a retiree who's working to pay for her husband's cancer treatment.

And that’s basically it!
IIRC, I saw somewhere that this was an entirely staged event and the Doordash driver was flown in from Arkansas.
This feels questionable that a delivery person would ever have such direct contact with a president.
More ai news slop
It was a stunt so he could tout his tax-free tips bullshit. They roped in an old grandma and somehow thought showing her having to work to pay off her husband's medical debt in her elder years wasn’t dystopian as fuck.
But hey, $100 tip. Orphan-crushing machine for the win!
I think they summed up the USA pretty nicely in this photo op: the average person has to work a precarious job until they're dead to serve the needs of rich fucks destroying the world.
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.
don't forget "Masturbating to Netflix while overdosing on antidepressants and weed"
Why? Did they ban porn sites in your state?
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.
impossible to overdose
Fr why they actually hate it. Pleasure without consequences.
Dont threaten me with a good time
Great opportunity for a fresh Luigi Mangione, just sayin.
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.
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.
Yes, as I read the grandma door dasher shirt, I don't think they understand how that's nothing to be proud of. The nation has failed those people that should be enjoying retirement instead of gig work for the elite class as modern slaves until they drop. Didn't even know about the husband which makes it so much more tone deaf.
It's even worst than you could imagine. She has a history with being used by trump
well, under normal circumstances... but wtf is even happening there anymore?
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!
I just had an interview at a dispensary. I hope I get the job, not only for cheaper weed, but also cause I need a fuckin job.
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.
offered his outlandish excuse that he was supposed to be a doctor
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.
If it was that easy to get to trump, I assume someone would have door-dash'd him something lethal already.
No way fucking way. I first saw the photograph of the Door Dasher and Lumpty Trumpty. My first reaction was "This must be AI slop."
Then it turns out to be true!
Not slop, but definitely staged. How many old white ladies are delivering your door dash orders, especially while wearing a shirt that says Door dash on it?
Doordash walking up to the oval office and trump taking delivery in person........ Very plausible /s
We see straight through this due to his ~~bad acting~~ inability to act and non existing sense of humor nor reality, Yet still he could not help himself .....
Trump quipped to Simmons sarcastically: “This doesn’t look staged.”
What’s extra crazy is that when he asked her if she was a supporter, it wasn’t a resounding yes, she said “mmm…maybe”, lol
Like they can’t even fucking get someone to act like they like him anymore.
This is just absolutely too much cringe for me. I had to just skim it and navigate away, but I appreciate the notification.
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.
There is a non-zero chance Trump has a sponsorship deal with McDonald's.
IMO McDonald's essentially endorsed him in 2024 when they remained silent on that stupid stunt he did at one of the franchises in Pennsylvania.
I'm sure there's gotta be some deals going on.
I wish they'd come out and denounce him. You just know he'd have a tantrum and swear off McDonalds forever. But it would deprive him of something he truly enjoys in life, which he deserves, because he's a cunt.
