Hes doing exactly what he wanted to do as president.
#dozeydonald
FYI, some of those cabinet members have expressly ordered their agencies to disregard some of m*sks crap. They aren’t even all on the same page.
Should I just take your word for it?
You can take my word for it. One of my buddies works for the DoD and the order came in on Monday expressly highlighting to NOT respond to the email.
The DoD email was actually signed, unlike the musk intern hr email.
I don’t believe you - I believe he’s looking at his phone. Show me the video.
Yeah we all hate Trump, but sometimes you look at the ground and focus on the conversation. Its pretty standard behaviour.
Name someone more addicted to shitposting…
There’s someone in that exact room who is more addicted to shitposting.
The optics of Musk addressing the room while Trump is disengaged are bad enough without simply making up things that are not there.
“Why is Elon Musk acting as the leader while Trump is disengaged” is a hard question for a reasonable person to deal with.
Saying “lol look at Trump sleeping” when that’s obviously not what is happening, makes you come off as unserious and casts doubt on anything you say in the future.
Spreading misleading lies is not the way to engage with the world. (To those of you that are people and not disinformation bots/agents)
How is it obvious that he isn’t sleeping? He looks like he’s sleeping. Without the caption I would assume he’s sleeping as well.
His hands are very close together, he’s looking between his hands and we know Trump is a social media junkie.
Without the caption you would assume he’s sleeping because someone probably flipped through hundreds of frames of video to find the shot that looked the worst so they could post about it.
Trump, if you’re to believe the rumors, uses stimulants and drinks a lot of caffeinated soda. He’s not falling asleep in the middle of the day.
It’s worse, he’s letting an unelected man, the richest man in the world, who paid for his campaign, act as the leader while he reads Twitter.
Him merely being asleep would be preferable over Musk being in the room. Incompetent and lazy leadership by Trump would be vastly better than his simply handing the reigns of power to an unelected non-American.
That’s the messaging that needs to be happening. All this is going to do is make the blue team laugh and the red team think the blue team is ignorant.
Meanwhile, Elon is taking a chainsaw to our entire government while we’re too busy trying to score points on the other team (who are the people we need to be allying with to protect the US).
His hands are very close together, he’s looking between his hands and we know Trump is a social media junkie.
We know it has tiny hands, so at that distance, it can’t possibly operate a phone with both tiny hands. ^^
You sound like you’re joking, but I’m honestly still trying to decide if there’s a phone the width of where his hands are…
Maybe it’s an iPad. He does kinda give iPad kid.
There’s something so funny about her mental picture of Musk handing the president of the United States an iPad to play with while he tries to seize power.
I’m not suggesting people lie, but your messaging doesn’t have to be completely true to work. That’s how the red team got elected in the first place
“Beat them by becoming them” is your strategy?
I clearly stated in the first half of my response that I wasn’t suggesting anyone do this, but the parent comment said saying something that’s not the truth will only achieve republicans thinking their opponents are ignorant and nothing else.
This is demonstrably false. Anything pushed hard enough becomes the status quo. This is important to know even if all you want to do is fight back against it.
I’m not saying that lying and manipulation don’t work. I’m saying that we shouldn’t be on the team of the liars and manipulators.
You are both right and I’ve really learned something from your comments, thanks.

his eyes are closed too, conservatives try to say hes posting on truth social.
If optics still mattered, I don’t think Trump would have won any election, let alone 2.
That’s no reason to abandon truth and give in to rampant misinformation.
Let’s hope the coke and the ketamine are doing their jobs in Muskrat’s body and brain.
Trump looks like he’s powered down
How do we make that permanent?
Gun practice, or find somebody with the flu to cough on him
What is up with the hand of the person on the bottom left corner?
Shadow.
Looks like a right hand gripping the table
Someone trying to flip the table but ultimately failing.
It’s The Penguin
Looks like the start of a round of Mr Thumb
What gets me about this photo is how fundamentally unserious the whole scene appears. The body language of nearly everyone, the lack of focus, the shabbiness of it all… just embarrassing. I’ve seen high school clubs looking more competent and serious.
I know this is just an aesthetics thing, but it gets to me. 🤷
The body language just says “we’re all here to blow Elon”, except for Trump who is allowed to nap after a hard day of golfing.
Musk looks like the sandwich trolley guy telling people about the specials.
What you’re picking up on is body language and that’s not strictly aesthetics. It’s sometimes even more important than verbal language.
Body language predates verbal language by literal tens of millions of years so year checks out.
Jesus Christ, every single thing to come out of his campaign and mouth was projection. ‘Sleepy Joe’ my ass. More like drowsy Donny, who’s uppers are always wearing off
While I have saved this for later distribution, it looks more like he’s checking his phone. Either way, he’s not paying attention.
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.
I think we need to retire -gate.
OK. But please let us have Elongate first. It’s almost like centuries of English language evolution have led us to this moment.
I’ll allow it.
-a-lago
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.
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.
his eyes are closed.
This picture makes me think of the boardroom scene in the movie Dogma.
He is really old, he’ll be 79 in june. How many people that are that age, you hear they die, and you’re like, “mmhmm, they had a long life.” He should be at his country clubs being racist and assaulting women like all the other republicans. Retire, it’s just a job man.
He did retire. Here he is asleep in his chair like grandpa after thanksgiving dinner. Musk’s in charge now.
president musk, and TRUMP is not even at the front of the table hes at one of the low level pleb seats.
He is 2 years younger than my grandad. And I would not trust my grandpa to run the country. He is just too old.
I would dead ass rather roll the dice with your granddad
I would rather roll the dice with my own granddad, and he’s already dead
White House at Bernie’s
White House at Bernie’s
Ironic really that this is what we got. Bernie at White House would have been a lot better.
cant fuck up things more than trump
Sadly he could not ever run because he does not have citzenship nor has he ever been to the US afaik. He has been to Mexico though. Maybe that counts.
He HAS been to the US then. The United States of Mexico.
Only $5 million to get a “Gold” card!
I mean, he’s obviously just staring at his phone, but if this had been Biden then they’d have been calling him Sleepy Joe in all the headlines. :|
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. *Yes to the rest
I think he’s got legs down there a phone could rest on.
He looks like an old man trying to take a dick pic.
Why is a) He even in there? b) still wearing that stupid hat?
Doesn’t want people to see his botched hair implants
Little Xevlar was pulling his plugs out during the compulsory shoulder rides.
Xevlar
Did you come up with that? It’s fucking top notch funny. I don’t laugh much these days.
I wish. It was doing the rounds when he started wearing the kid-helmet and I can’t forget it.
B: It has become an even lamer version of the swastika armband.
Don’t see the kid anywhere in the image, so gotta have something to go on the head.
Nah, the kid isn’t a hat, he’s a human shield.
People are far less likely to shoot evil billionaires (and infinitely less likely to do so and gain public sympathy) if they do it near their spawn, so he’s been bringing his 4yo everywhere he thinks he might otherwise be shot ever since people started celebrating Luigi.
Every time I see him with his kid, I can’t help but think of the Insufferable comic where the dude’s got baby body armor
They executed the kids during the Spartacus Revolt. Gotta make sure the slave owners kids don’t come back for revenge.
Can’t see how a billionaire’s kid is any different - it’s really nothing personal.
He has seven of those horcruxes
