    If ever a "spit-take" emoji was appropriate...

    "Now look here, you Baltic gas passer... " - Mik, 6/14/08

    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      Spit-take or spit-roast?

      “Cry havoc and let slip the DOGE of war!”

      Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton

        Seems more like a guided tour of a closed off McDonalds.

        Different from Kamala’s truck stop dorito visits different, how?

        Of course it was staged and carefully controlled. There’s a 15% chance the fry cook throws a shitload of fry oil on Trump if it isn’t. Same with Kamala “stopping for chips”.

        I didn't know Kamala did anything. Just saying that this was akin to using the McDonald's as a closed movie set. Not sure what voters are supposed to take away from these sort of "visits" (by either side).

            That was well written. Granted, I wasn't expecting much, but it was just a random McDonalds owner.

            Education is extremely important.

                It would shock me if 1 in 8 American adults have worked at McDonalds.

                    Seems high to me. Back of the envelope math doesn’t work out well (13k restaurants, 50 employees each, 125% turnover gives you ~812k a year.)

                    Only non-witches get due process.

                      Multiply that by 60(?) years. But then of course, you need to figure out the total number of people who lived during that time period.

                      I am guess it is somewhere about 1 in 50.

                            McDonald's has a well known problem with its ice cream machines in the industry.

                              With this campaign event, maybe Trump took the advice of the late Ray Kroc... “If any of my competitors were drowning,” he said, “I’d stick a hose in their mouth and turn on the water. It is ridiculous to call this an industry. This is not. This is rat eat rat, dog eat dog. I’ll kill ’em, and I’m going to kill ’em before they kill me. You’re talking about the American way — of survival of the fittest.”

                              “Cry havoc and let slip the DOGE of war!”

                              Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton
