MAGAts act as if trucking unions like the Teamsters didn't support Biden.

I remember that song from when I was young.

I haven't thought about it in....... many, many years. It's crazy the things our brains retain.

That’s probably what you remember seeing.

Whenever the helicopter is arriving or on the ground, there is a pumper there for safety.

I just remember TFG doing the Vroom thing behind the wheel of a fire truck and figured they kept one there for him.

The “Vroom thing” (. ) you’re referring to was one of many occasions when trucks are brought onto the grounds for one reason or another.

They’ve had NASCAR and Indycar transporters on the driveway in the past in order to place a race car for the President to look at.

This sort of thing has happened during most of the Presidencies in my lifetime.

How can he call himself a president?

He's not even behind the wheel of this truck pretending to toot toot the horn!!
