(6,568 posts)that. Photo seems odd -- like different lighting on the subjects at the table. Seems like a composite of some sort.

(2,594 posts)Apparently its AI, per other posts here. I never pick up on that sort of thing. Never actually had Panda Express, but it strikes me as the McDonalds of Chinese food. As my husband said, Its fine as long as you dont have any expectations.

Argh, in AI world you just can't trust your eyes
The Madcap
(2,017 posts)Unless this photo was taken on the ground, having so many high-ranking billionaire types together on a flying (old) aircraft is not a great idea no matter how tight the security against incoming missiles, etc. Yeah, the odds are against an aircraft problem, but why take the chance?

(52,345 posts)The engine behind the posts
Natalie Harp, Trumps executive assistant, plays an integral role in Trumps Truth Social activity. She brings the president stacks of printed-out draft social-media posts for his approval. The proposed posts often recycle content from other accounts that Harp or advisers think would appeal to Trump, according to people familiar with the matter.
Harp then logs onto the presidents accountat times outside of normal work hoursand posts batches of Trump-approved messages, the people said. Trump personally signs off on all of the content posted to his account. While Harp often posts content on Trumps behalf, the president posts some messages himself, White House officials said. Harp has frustrated some White House officials because she typically doesnt share draft posts with the chief of staffs office, communications aides or national-security officials. Harp has told others she works for Trump and only listens to him

(114,570 posts)She's the President/CEO of META and was formerly an Deputy National Security official for Trump on strategy in the Middle East, I think.
At any rate, the photo is not clear to me and I could be wrong as there is certainly the heavily made-up Mar-a-Lago look, but by contrast, this is Dina Powell McCormick (and she IS listed as accompanying with the other CEOS*:

Edit: yup its AI. The photo looked familiar to me as I remember Elon there with RFK eating McDonalds. We should be more careful before posting this kind of stuff.

The ubiquitous PuPu platter?
That's not Chinese food, that's a American "Asian inspired" Midwest style single pan meal.

(13,154 posts)Stop bitching about KITCHEN TABLE issues not being addressed.
Just look at all the brilliant people at a kitchen table tirelessly talking about ways to help middle class and poor people. MAGA be patient. Greatness is coming. In two weeks. Depending on added time(like soccer games) to allow for sleeping episodes.
And Musk just telling us SS and Medicare must be eliminated. Draining our economy
How much is the whole shit show coming out of our budget, that these billionaires do not contribute to, but are getting a free vacation here, on our dime?
WAKE the ever loving FUCK up America.
Gettin WOKE may be our only salvation.
This is Of The People For The People By the People? Just What God Damned People are we talking about? 🤬
I cant tell you how many beat up Duct Tapped together trucks I saw yesterday with Trump Stickers.
Saw a round Walmart employee in the cute blue vest with a Charley Kirk For President 2028 yesterday.
Are THOSE The People?
Nobody at that kitchen table or the 13 billionaires in the Trump Whisky Cabinet gives one fuck about those people.
