Information for Newsweek:
Wiki: reliable - There is consensus that articles from Newsweek pre-2013 are generally reliable for news covered during that time. In 2011, Newsweek was a reputable magazine with only some minor problems while it was owned by The Newsweek Daily Beast Company (which also owned The Daily Beast). Blogs under Newsweek, including The Gaggle, should be handled with the WP:NEWSBLOG policy. See also: Newsweek (2013–present).
Wiki: mixed - Unlike articles before 2013, Newsweek articles since 2013 are not generally reliable. From 2013 to 2018, Newsweek was owned and operated by IBT Media, the parent company of International Business Times. IBT Media introduced a number of bad practices to the once reputable magazine and mainly focused on clickbait headlines over quality journalism. Its current relationship with IBT Media is unclear, and Newsweek’s quality has not returned to its status prior to the 2013 purchase. Many editors have noted that there are several exceptions to this standard, so consensus is to evaluate Newsweek content on a case-by-case basis. In addition, as of April 2024, Newsweek has disclosed that they make use of AI assistance to write articles. See also: Newsweek (pre-2013).

Well, he is a trash candidate.
He’s just an old man that wants to retire and do old man things. Work at fast food and ride around in trucks. Next he’s gonna be a Walmart greeter.
I can’t help thinking that if you’re running for president and you decide, because reasons, that you want to climb into a big truck on camera, you should maybe get in on the driver’s side. And not use a garbage truck. And not put your campaign slogan on the side of a garbage truck. And grasp the door handle firmly on your fist attempt while staying upright.
And also, just don’t. But what do i know?
Just a garbage truck doing what it was designed to do: haul trash to the dump.
This is such a confusing distraction from Trump, which I think is the point…
- Is he saying that he should deliver himself and his supporters to the dump, based on what Biden said?
- Is he tossing Puerto Rico in the trash, based on what Hitchcliffe said?
- More likely it’s just his idea of yet another attention-grabbing stunt.
In any case, it should be clear as hell to Puerto Ricans that he shows less than zero remorse for their homeland being called an island of garbage.
He’s pulling the “Look at me! I’m a working class guy just like you! I really do care about you!” angle. Like the propaganda of Mussolini working in the wheat fields.
Am I supposed to cheer him on or laugh at him for being weird?
Finally, oh wait, he’s in the front.
First McDonald’s, now this…
I guess he’s trying to scout out possible jobs for after he gets out of prison.
No offense to actual food service or disposal workers. Trump would be shit at either.
Tbf, he’s shit anyway, regardless if what he does for a living.
