      I don’t know if those companies had any say in whether their products were used, but this wasn’t supposed to be for advertising. It was supposed to be a gimmick for what was stated to be a message on the economy, but the orange atrocity personified saw a squirrel and the whole address ended up being the same whiny bullshit.

      Plot twist: the products were placed by competing brands because they knew the product placement would backfire

      I don’t fucking believe you. No way that ass nugget eats anything resembling healthy. That pos probably has his cronies remove the non marshmallows from his lucky charms.

            Something like yogurt and fruit or an omelette

            A cigarette and a coffee looks like a healthier breakfast than whatever is on that table

              There literally is coffee on that table. You can choose to take the right portions of carbs (cereal) and carbs and protein (various meats).

                …the coffee and cigarette is a stereotypical idea of a comically unhealthy breakfast.

                that was the point.

                There’s a hell of a lot more to eating healthy than just balancing 3 simple macros. Especially when what you’re balancing is a load of processed shite in bright plastic containers.

                  So we’re talking about packaging then? Not the food itself? Do you know what type of containers yogurt is shipped in? Or even a lot of fruits? Surely you have a better argument than that?

      Why is this guy being downvoted? Is there an implication of Folgers endorsing Trump? Is it implied that his liking Folgers is because of their Trump endorsement?

      I’m genuinely asking, I’m hella out of the loop

        I’m not going to pretend Folger’s is some fine luxury brand. I’m not going to pretend it’s even good coffee. It’s fine. Not great but fine.

        Is it shit? No, get your ratios right and it’s fine. It’s cheaper and better than a Starbucks cup. If you’re going for black coffee, you can do worse.

    You give me tax cuts for the rich, what little healthcare you have left, your reproductive rights, free elections, and the ability to commit felonies.

    I give you, a pack of sausages and a tin of burnt coffee grounds.

    It was the words in his latest “intelligence” test. Coffee, honey bunches of oats, sausage (jimmy dean & Johnsonville). He got 5/5 and is a certified apple genius now

    Wow, look at that guy. He’s old and looks to be suffering from some form of cognitive disorder. Is he having a stroke? Is it dementia? Too much adderall? He should drop out and seek treatment. It’s just sad.

    There are dozens more on a table to the left side out off camera. Is it confirmed these brands had any prior knowledge of are actually publicly backing trump?

    I am fully aware the personal pocket books of the heads of these companies are deep for the GOP.

      Yeah, I have no idea if this means something, or if Politics Gallagher there just brought out some props for “muh inflation” before smashing them with a sledgehammer.

    I didn’t watch it but my guess is the context is something like “all these groceries got more expensive under Joe Biden!” He was bitching about not being able to afford bacon a couple days ago.

      Yet it’s that fat fuck’s lack of attention to pandemic profiteering that led to the inflation. The last 4 years have been trying to mitigate the effects of his half-assed handling of the situation.

        Isn’t it always funny that the last 2 Democrat presidents inherited absolute economic shit shows from republicans and managed to turn things around only to be blamed for causing the problems that were left to them…

          The last three Democratic presidents. Clinton inherited the massive debt run up by Reagan and Bush I, and in just six years not only eliminated the deficit but also started producing a fucking surplus. If that sort of financial responsibility had been continued instead of being thrown in the trash by Bush II and Dick “Reagan proved that deficits don’t matter” Cheney, we would have eliminated the national debt years ago.

          It just seems to be how it goes. It’s the same here in Australia. The conservatives fuck everyone who is not already wealthy, then the progressive get elected just long enough to get blamed for how fucked everything is, and the conservatives get elected again because they’re “superior economic managers”.

      That’s because of the lawsuits, not inflation.
