Translation: “give me enough money and I’ll promote whatever you want.”
Most presidents at least pretended they couldn’t be bought.
Did someone say frijoles?
And I haven’t bought Goya since.
Wow, I didn’t realize this actually happened, til now I’d honestly thought it was some sort of shit post. This is the strangest timeline
No fucking way! I also thought it was a joke. But tan suits, that’s the real problem.
No, the real problem is putting mustard in your burger. Those were dark times…
Ah yes. Thanks for the reminder of those times, which COVID had distracted me from.
I can’t decide whether this pic or the photo of George W. Bush literally holding hands with the king of Saudi Arabia is worse. I mean, at least Goya doesn’t have people cut up with bone saws and they definitely had nothing to do with 9/11.
I like to substitute Trump’s middle initial with a G instead of a J.
Donathan Goya Trump
He on the other hand is haggling openly and then brags about it.
And his moron followers are proud of him 🙄
He’s going to “drain the swamp” and replace it with an auction house.
I thought he was draining the swamp so he could sell swamp water?
Build condos on it.
After burying Melania there.
Turns out “playing 4D chess” is just MAGA politikese for “broadcasting our corruption loudly and assuming enough people are also either too corrupt, ignorant, or disaffected to do anything about it.”
Nah. Imo, this is him telling oil company that they need to step up and fully fund his requests for money “or else”. Didn’t he recently ask the oil industry for an insane amount of money at the beginning of his campaign or something?
That’s not really contradicting what I’m saying.
No, you’re right. But I think this is specifically a message to the oil industry.
Little quid, little pro, lots of quo.
The best quo. Lots of smart people are saying it’s the best quo. The quid? Not so good. But the quo is good.
Dude’s made a living selling his stupid face every opportunity he can to get attention, why would he let a little thing like presidential integrity get in the way? It certainly didn’t when he was actually president!
Bought and paid for politician Trump is.
Except he doesn’t sell himself to the highest buidder, he’ll sell out to any and all of them at the same time.
“I can only suck one dick at a time, but I also have two (normal-sized) hands.”
“Some fok’ll never tip their hand, but then again some fok’ll. Like Donald the Slack-jawed Yokel.”
Trump: “It wasn’t my fault, he had a LOT
of money.”No translation needed, since he is saying it outright.
Incredible way to openly admit that your policy agenda is for sale to the highest bidder.
Oh he’s never tried to hide that he’s for sale… e.g. https://www.budget.senate.gov/chairman/newsroom/press/budget-finance-committees-launch-joint-investigation-into-donald-trumps-quid-pro-quo-offer-to-big-oil-
How the US does not read this as: “I was bribed by the CEO of < company > to enact policies that benefit them” is beyond me.
Be better America.
A large swath of the US are people with a single braincell bouncing around their skull like a DVD logo.
But does it touch the corner?
by design
Because education is the devil’s work!
The average American having a reading level of 8th grade level has a lot to do with it…
"I love the poorly educated "
“The battery car guy gave me more money than the gas car guys. I have no choice!”
It’s not even just the money.
Musk controls the direction of Twitter propaganda.
I think it’s the 45 million dollars per month.
Great point!
I thought you were supposed to not admit to the bribe.
The argument has always been, “No, we just give to candidates who support our cause.” Of course everyone knows that’s BS, because the support always follows the cash. But then here comes this dumbass and just- up and admits to corruption.
It’s OK, the Supreme Court has confirmed that bribes are totally legal now.

The same Elon Musk that permanently deleted this image off the internet forever?
Eeeeh heeee yooooow
Billie Jean is not my looover
“He bought me fair and square.”
“Jared, remind me again: did this suitcase full of cash come from Vladimir or Salman?”

Our society is crumbling into disrepair. Politicians openly solicit quid pro quo. This flagrantly corrupt culture needs a shock.
I don’t know about Trump and fast living
Fast food, on the other hand…
“I’m no puppet! You’re the puppet!”
Translation: Elon musk is giving me money and is calling me a cool guy. I have to help him.
Trump says the quiet part (“I am totally bribe-able”) out loud, all the time because he’s a complete freaking idiot. There is no filter between his mouth and what’s left of his brain.
This is the real Trump. The moron. This isn’t “off the cuff”,“exaggeration” or “locker room talk” Believe people when they show you what they really are.
because he’s a complete freaking idiot.
The scary part is nobody’s listening. I can scream at the top of my lungs the fact that vaccines are harmless but measles outbreaks are increasing. People out there hunting immigrants while the 1% pockets their surplus value.
People aren’t thinking, they are just reacting on emotions.
The problem is lots of folks have been more or less made that way through decades of action by the right. Seriously the more or less complete collapse of leftist action back in the 70s and 80s fucked us, it meant that the right was able to hog wild and build up massive institutions like talk radio and fox. Theres one thing we have going for us and thats the fact these institutions are finally going up against actual resistance, and that has only been rebuilt over the last 14 years or so.
But why did " collapse of leftist action back in the 70s and 80s"?
I over exaggerate a bit but basically thats when the boomers came into influence, combine that with the fact the fuckery started with Nixon and well any action would seem to be non existant. Also by the 90s it seems to be irrelevant snough that I cant name any large instances besides the some minor actions done by the alt crowd.
At least he should have gone with the talk of “I was skeptical of them and like those iconic petrol cars like every American patriot, but I’ve talked to this great man, and after consideration I’ve decided to support electric cars. I bet soon they will be just as iconic as those muscle cars with their V8 engines.”.
That’s what his supporters will say he means. It really doesn’t matter what he says.
It’s what he means. He’s just communicating with the common man
/s
And funnily enough, if Trump were to be elected, then suddenly Trump would forget about how much Elon helped him. Trump has a terrible record for keeping contracts, so I don’t think he’s good with returning favors.
A Trump never pays his debts
Depends on what Big Oil is willing to pay him personally, I suppose.
300m+ citizens, and policy is based on the employer of one man.
USA: Best politics money can buy.
*Bribed
Gratuity
Just waiting for MAGA idiots to start buying EVs to “own the libs”. I mean, I’d rather people shift to EVs because it’s less damaging to the environment; but, a win is a win, I guess.
If that started to happen I’d gladly just play along.
Buy an EV to own the libs.
Fueled by their tears, not foreign oil.
