Short Take Politics

Felon shuts down McDonald’s

It was a campaign stunt in Feasterville, Pa. which I never heard of either. (I looked it up, Bucks County, north of Philly.) The press covered it like he was really working. The restaurant was shut down. It was not a real thing. Sort of like that time he pretended to be a successful billionaire for a reality TV show. You’re fired, Donald! He can’t even make fries without faking it. https://www.showbiz411.com/2024/10/20/trump-campaign-closed-down-mcdona…

Arnold Palmer’s junk? For real?

Nothing says “I’m fit to be President” like talking about a dead golfer’s genitalia. I mean what’s next? Talking about Hanibel Lecter as a real person? https://apnews.com/article/trump-arnold-palmer-closing-arguments-latrobe-pennsylvania-2bea9620c523e531a55259200215284e

Kamala the drunk?

Nothing says “we are scared of her” like doctoring videos to make the cult members think the strong woman their leader fears is a drunk. https://www.reuters.com/fact-check/video-harris-was-slowed-down-make-her-appear-drunk-2024-09-24/

Wisconsin Senate candidates debate
