Well, first of all, the Real America News guy was probably slobbering over Elon Musk in the cabinet meeting yesterday when he was not wearing a suit, was wearing a t-shirt, was wearing a hat and was like amped up on God knows what, standing up, jumping up and down, being a fucking lunatic, right?

So why is Elon Musk allowed to like, you know, in this guy's view, denigrate the White House, the Oval Office by not wearing a suit? I mean, like, can you imagine, can you imagine being Ukrainian and looking at this? I mean, Zelensky dresses like that in solidarity with people in his country.

They were definitely like a part of some, you know, one of the things the Biden administration rolled out. But Russian state media is allowed in the Oval Office and the Associated Press.
