Tech Bros Suck Up to Trump at White House | REUTERS

[Troy]

You tax dollars at work...

 

I don't know where I learned about this video but the title of this post is what I used to find it in about 2 seconds.

 

Initially I found the video was shocking; to see a room full of multi-billionaires supplicate themselves before the President.  That alone should give you an indication of how powerful the man is. Trump is perhaps the most powerful man in human history.

 

Reuters deliberately edited this video of billionaires bending the knee to the president in such a way to illicit the reaction I had.  In context of the dinner itself it probably was not as bad as it comes across with this edit... I guess I'll have to look for the video of the entire dinner.

 

Still If I had as much money as any of these dudes, I would not be kissing anyone's a-s -- how much more money do you need?!

 

 

Side bar for @Pioneer1   Melania is pretty attractive for a 55-year-old melanin challenged sister huh?  She hit the jackpot huh?

Lol...she's not bad looking for a 55 year old woman, however I don't find her particularly attractive.
Honestly.

Yeah, you like 'em thick huh?

Mostly, but I'm more focused on them being CURVACEOUS.
Even if they're thin.

Erykah Badu is a good example of a thin woman with curves.

...yeah @Pioneer1, thick.  Badu is 54. How old is that photo?

 

Melania epitomizes that "Resting Bitch Face" phrase people have been using lately.  

 

It looks like Bill gates and Donald use the same hairdresser. 

 

What is up with Mark Z's hair? Why are these buys, like Elon Musk, so afraid of going bald?

White men don't look at being bald the same as we do.

Since the late 80s (Unless you were on the West Coast) that predominant haircut among Black males has been the bald fade.
Since so many Black men got their hair cut to nearly bald anyway....actually GOING bald wasn't too big of a jump, lol.

I've also heard from a lot of women that Black men look much better with bald heads than White men.

But me...I gotta have hair, lol.

Most men across the board try to hold on to their hair.

 

Going bald actually takes confidence.

 

We see all types of comb overs, half-fros and other unsightly efforts to keep hair that clearly wants to leave.

 

On a personal note, I had nice hair and kept a fresh temple taper fade back in the day. As soon as my hair started social distancing on my scalp, I cut it all off.

 

I've been bald for 3 decades and counting. I have no idea of how i would look with hair on my head. I'll never know because I shave every day.

You don’t need the with bald heads part.

lol!

 

The worst are those brothers rockin the dread locks with the George Jefferson hairline,

 

I was always on the lazy side when it came to my hair so cutting it off works for me. I can’t be bothered to shave every day though. Once or twice a week generally is enough and about all I can muster.

The national treasure that is Stevie Wonder was guilty of that sh8t.

 

For a long time, Stevie was rocking those braids while his hairline was receding to the point that beach front property could have been built on his forehead.

 

I believe Stevie is now rocking a bald head underneath his skull caps and kufis. He needed to Teddy Pendergrass and Let It Go.
