    I yelled at my phone when I saw this.

    He said “oh wow! The whole thing is a computer!” like cars haven’t been like that for YEARS now.

    The I go on Facebook for some reason (I am in a rural area) and I am seeing people talking about buying teslas in the local community pages. These people are not people that couldn’t afford a used Mitsubishi Mirage…

    Well, it was Goya last time. Now, it’s Tesla. Soon, it will be Campbell’s Soup for all the soup-lines his depression will create.

      Rita repulsa zaps Orange Turidno. Laughs. Turdo goes Biggly.

      The Dipshit starts flailing arms around, slapping multiple children as armor.

      Power Rangers theme starts playing.

      Because of ethical restraints, it is extremely rare for a senior government official, let alone a sitting president, to endorse a consumer product so explicitly. In 2017, when then-Trump counselor Kellyanne Conway told Americans to buy from Ivanka Trump’s clothing line, she received a warning from a government ethics office and promised never to do it again.

        Maybe there is a language barrier, but I didn’t understand if a legal framework is implied by “ethical restraints”. Can one be taken to court for violating an ethical restraint?
