Almost as if he was waiting for his next photo op...what a stupid tool

Edit: I'm a tool and didn't realize I was reading the onion I'm a stupid tool in this case...

Like, from just reading the headline, it doesn't seem very onion-y. It's not just perfectly believable, but I sort of assumed that that is what happened.

Totally in character and would align with "staged"

It's ok, i also ate the onion at least once...

With news about Trump, it is also an extra deceiving onion.

Nope.. sick with COVID and didn't realize I was in the onion land I still think it's a tool but I shouldn't respond to onion articles that makes me a tool..

I fully believed it before I read the source. It sounds exactly like something he would do.

It's okay bro, easy mistake to make. The fat orange guy is a walking onion article no matter what he does.

Frankly it's amazing that The Onion didn't go under in the last decade as reality became stranger than their headlines

It did go under. Global Tetrahedron owns it now😔

Oh shit I didn’t know that. I stand corrected

That’s some cruel irony being put out of business by reality.

I’m glad they’re back with apparently more sass than usual, but Jfc that’s just lol

In 2024 it's never been easier to eat the onion.
