Trump believes you need to use ID to buy groceries and gas. And this is not the first time he’s made this claim, either.

Trump has suggested that he will violate a court ruling stating that SNAP benefits must be paid during the shutdown.

So apparently there’s plenty of money for billionaire tax breaks, but none for the needy.

I’d like some evidence that Donny has ever bought gas or groceries.

This reminds me of the time President George H.W. Bush walked into a supermarket and was baffled by the barcode scanners.

ETA: Which was apparently played up for more than what really happened by the editorial writer.

Something I was not aware of was that ASL sign language interpreters stopped being present at official White House briefings when Trump’s term started. The only reason I heard of it now is that a judge ordered them restored. I guess treating deaf people as human was too woke and DEI for this administration.

Except the Thanksgiving dinner is way less food than last year. And they switched to mostly Great Value-branded items from name brand.

Nah, you’re all just getting it wrong.

He’s fighting waistline inflation. Not his own, obviously, but a few million hungry kids is a small price to pay in the war against obesity

He also wasted more money to do this to the Oval Office.

Although maybe he needed a reminder to help him find it if he left.

Oh please, please somebody change that to the Offal Office. Convince T that that’s what it’s called so he can start repeating it (not that he can actually, you know, enunciate).

Argh, I hate it when an article uses a teaser thumbnail pic in the preview that isn’t present at all in the actual article. Here’s a good shot of it:

Haha, yeah, probably after a few dozen instances of him wandering around outside the West Wing asking everybody “where’s the door to my office again?”, they finally put up that tacky sign that looks like it was printed out at a Kinko’s.

The next President should pledge to remove all Trump tackiness from the White House, restore the rose garden, and treat Mar-a-Lago like we did General Lee’s house in Arlington.

Yep, if I was the next President I would go in with one of these on day one, and let myself be filmed making a show of prying off the tacky-ass fake gold crap everywhere.

So Walmart took away just over 25% of the food, replaced the 75% of the foods they kept with cheaper ‘value brands’, and lowered the price 25%. In other words, it’s more expensive.

Maybe these folks don’t ASL gibberish? Or they are too embarrassed to even try?

“Yes dammit, I signed exactly what he said!”

I could do it. Would only take two fingers, but I would need both hands.
