Summary
Donald Trump mocked Time magazine after its latest cover depicted Elon Musk sitting behind the Resolute Desk, questioning if the magazine was “still in business.”
While pretending indifference, the cover likely irritated him, as he was ecstatic just months ago when Time named him 2024 Person of the Year.
Speaking at the White House, Trump tried to dismiss the cover’s implications and praised Musk for uncovering “fraud and corruption.”
Despite his criticism, Trump has long craved Time’s approval, even displaying a fake cover of himself.
TBF Elon actually uncoverd a lot of corruption. Just not the way Trump thinks
Indeed. The day after inauguration, Elon woke up, walked to the bathroom, flipped on the light, and stared straight ahead, instantly discovering corruption the likes of which America has never seen.
When was The Orange Fart Person of the Year?
just a reminder that ‘person of the year’ is not necessarily ‘good person of the year’…
it is awarded to people who have had significant impact on global events during the year (i.e. ‘news makers’)–good OR bad.
I didnt know that, don’t think I’ve ever read a Time magazine. Thanks for the info.
Unfortunately, adhering to traditionalism means inflating the ego yet further of dictators. I’d rather the whole thing went away altogether (that would have been a real statement if they’d just left the thing blank).
Can we just find a way to surprise mega-dose these fuckers with magic mushrooms already?
Time Magazine?, 60 minuets? Can we at least be stupid in this century?
It’s not his Resolute Desk
LOL, donvict is just such a predictable little butthurt baby.
Dang. He’s going to burn the desk now, isn’t he?
Journalist: “We have found reason to believe there may be a conflict of interest in the way SpaceX receives government funding!”
Official: “Nonsense! He is a brilliant entrepreneur, blessed by the free market!”
Journalist: “But if he receives government grants and also holds influence over government decisions, shouldn’t we at least investigate?”
Official: “Investigate? Are you mad? That’s not how modern governance works!”
Journalist: “How does it work?”
Official: “Well, if he weighs the same as a rocket… he’s a genius!”
Crowd: “A genius!! Burn the critics!!”
Journalist: “But that doesn’t make any sense!”
Official: “Look, strange billionaires distributing subsidies is no basis for a system of government! Supreme executive power derives from a mandate of regulatory oversight, not from handing out massive contracts to one’s own companies!”
Journalist: “So you’ll investigate?”
Official: “What? No! Now go away, or I shall dismiss you a second time!”
Donald′s classic ″You are so lame and unpopular, nobody knows who you are″ rebuttal. Such a quick witted mind he has.
Oh now that’s funny.
Jesus Christ, is this newsworthy?
Fuck yeah. Hurt this cunt the only way he understands.
Any good politician would at least think twice about this before just attacking them back like a little child. If I were president and this would happen, I would work on fixing my image instead of ruining it even more.
The last 10 years have been one of bullying and turning people into hateful assholes.
Okay, but this is seriously funny.
Elon next PotY?
you misspelled Potus
He’s president of the yankees
De facto, not de jure. Not that any such jure matters anymore, but you get my drift.
I meant next opus, but I get your point
Psychological warfare. Trump’s an easy mark. We need more of it…
