Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!

Overpriced burgers with "TRUMP" stamped on the bun. Why can't I think of some grift like that? I could be making bank. Stupid conscience.

[–] aramis87@fedia.io 47 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Yeah, but you'd also have to be dealing with Trump supporters all day, overhearing their trump-loving conversations, and telling you how excited they are that you're running this business to serve them and the man they love, so .... What price sanity?

[–] Nusm@peachpie.theatl.social 23 points 5 days ago

Okay, yeah. THAT’S why I wouldn’t do that.

[–] paraphrand@lemmy.world 8 points 5 days ago (1 children)

They look burned on, so they are possibly technically carcinogenic too.

[–] fartographer@lemmy.world 4 points 5 days ago (1 children)

They're gonna give me crabs???

Don't worry, your stomach acid will kill all but the most hardy and aggressive crabs.

I guess I was lucky to snap a picture of it when still open for business.

Ugh, I'm just noticing the black-and-white tile pattern.

[–] SoloCritical@lemmy.world 36 points 5 days ago (2 children)

Oh my good it actually says “SS” doesn’t it?!

Yup. These fuckers certainly aren't shy. I'm disappointed no-one burned it down.

I laughed wtf?!?

[–] Adderbox76@lemmy.ca 3 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I'm not entirely convinced that this dude didn't open up the joint as purposeful satire to make money off stupid MAGA cultists.

I would. You know how tempting it is to make some idiot trump branded piece of shit product and get MAGA to eat it up? These people are literally cultists just waiting to give you their money; and if pretending to be one of them on the surface makes me rich off their stupidity...hey...it's tempting.

I'm almost sure that's what happened here.

[–] Sculptor9157@sh.itjust.works 3 points 4 days ago

You would probably be lucky to have any sanity left after the first day of dealing with them.

Isn't that rear end of a British police car? Lol. You'd probably have had a better result photoshopping it yourself.

[–] Regrettable_incident@lemmy.world 7 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (2 children)

It is. The side looks kinda Spanish tho.

Also, one of the ice wankers is pissing on it.

[–] Cethin@lemmy.zip 2 points 5 days ago

The side does resemble an ICE vehicle, but yeah, I think it just sort of mashed some things up and got things wrong there too.

[–] regedit@lemmy.zip 2 points 5 days ago

The other wanker is watching the pisser!

[–] 3abas@lemmy.world 3 points 5 days ago

Probably not worth the effort...

[–] Nalivai@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

True for every piece of generated slop out there

[–] BobbyGasoline@lemmy.world 22 points 5 days ago (1 children)

I passed one of restaurants last week, they changed it from trump burger to president burger.

[–] webp@mander.xyz 2 points 5 days ago

Too bad they aren't precedent burger

[–] YoiksAndAway@piefed.zip 19 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Signs for Empire Pizza on the old building were reported by KHOU 11 Monday, though it is uncertain whether the restaurant is open to the public yet.

I believe that building is cursed.

Some would say that it is... unnatural.

[–] YoiksAndAway@piefed.zip 4 points 5 days ago

Next up: Totalitarian Taco Bar.

[–] FosterMolasses@leminal.space 18 points 4 days ago

c/Not The Onion?

The chain closed in October after its Lebanese owner, Roland Beainy, was arrested by ICE.

Ohh... c/Leopards Ate My Face it is then...

[–] maxxadrenaline@lemmy.world 10 points 5 days ago (1 children)

The One place I’m glad god raided

Even god’s sick of his shit

[–] phutatorius@lemmy.zip 8 points 3 days ago (2 children)

What's going to replace it? A Hitler-themed vegetarian bratwurst place?

[–] ThePowerOfGeek@lemmy.world 6 points 3 days ago (1 children)

A pizza joint. But a more appropriate type of establishment would have been a face-themed restaurant for leopards.

[–] hovercat@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 3 days ago

I mean, given all the claims on the right over the "Pedo Pizza" restaurant, maybe it is appropriate...

[–] ripcord@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

Reading past the first sentence, no.
