    While I have saved this for later distribution, it looks more like he’s checking his phone. Either way, he’s not paying attention.

      Obviously? No. There is no possible way his hands could be holding that phone. And we all know he is absolutely a 2-handing smart phone user. He can barely hold a 16oz bottle of water. Probably a 15.9oz at that.

      He’s obviously looking at his phone. This isn’t the burn the meme makes it out to be.

      The real fucked up shit is the world’s richest man addressing the Cabinet. In a fucking baseball hat.

        Yes, outrage farming misinformation doesn’t belong here (or anywhere).

        Engage with reality, don’t cheer on lies because they’re lies that you like.

        It should be pretty obvious the kind of damage that can be caused by people living in alternative-fact-based realities.

      That’s what it looks like to me. To be honest though just about everything on the internet is probably more important than what Elongated is saying.

        Oh my God this comment just made me realize when the inevitable Watergate type scandal happens with this administration it will be called Elongate

          I think we need to retire -gate. Watergate was a laughable nothing of a scandal compared to what the Trump regime does daily.
