Mr. Trump Goes to McDonald’s

Those that don’t understand him say that Donald Trump manned the fry station and the drive-through window at McDonald’s merely in order to troll Kamala Harris and her unsubstantiated claims to have worked at Mickey D’s during her perfectly normal middle-class upbringing. But in this episode of Hot Mic, Bill points out that Trump has done something much deeper than that, and that strangely enough, the image of a President in a fast-food drive-through window offers all regular people a sublime sense of pure HOPE.

I think Donald John Trump is a dick. But I’ve softened my position on that a lot because the more of this stuff he does, the more I realize that we can all be a dick sometimes. Being a dick quite often myself, I’m growing more sympathetic to Donald Trump’s dickishness. I’m never going to forget that when the going got really tough, Trump abdicated the power WE gave him to a vainglorious little gnomish twit named Anthony Fauci. Which came as close to destroying this nation as we have come since the Civil War. That was one of the… Read more »

Brilliant analysis! Bill, this is up there with your best and why I stay a member. I voted early today, and for the first time, I again have hope in our beloved USA! Donald Trump’s unbelievably amazing energy level is what continues to amaze me. It has to be God given!

Gonna have to disagree with you, sir.

Not to go Kamala here, but the audiences _are_ stupid when Dem pols pander to them, because they clap and cheer instead of being offended.

I haven’t felt this good about an election since, let’s see, right before Biden pulled ahead around 3 AM the day after votes were cast last time.

“I think he’s going to win this thing, and he’s going to win it big.” Well, according to “The Alfred E. Smith Memorial Foundation Dinner” metric, he’s going to win 49 states.
Great episode. I hope you keep producing these.
