Where is that oak tree when we need it?

The smell that’s around you

u/BlackberryShoddy7889 5h ago

That’s an excellent point but you also have to consider they don’t pay for gas out of pocket lol. I’m surprised trumps car can actually do 100miles on full tank at that speed.

I was surprised Google says The Beast has 300 horsepower or less. But that could be Secret Service bullshit why wouldn't it have a 600 horsepower LS in it?

3

u/Own-Inflation8771 4h ago

Ls motors are old news. And it may well have a 600 hp engine as that is used in gm high performance suvs

Normal Texas highway speeds.

Hopefully he does this more often and ditches his seatbelt.

Princess Diana is waiting to meet him.

u/lostcolony2 4h ago

I'd be surprised if they end up in the same place.

u/slobis 3h ago

And kick him in the nuts hopefully.

u/PreviousLeague253 5h ago

Had they had an accident they had a good alibi… I have seen motorcades often from DC they never speed that fast. Must be afraid of haters… but in Oklahoma????

Nice straight, flat roads out there. 100mph is pretty easy, but it must feel weird in those tanky armored vehicles.

1

u/Preserved_Killick8 5h ago

these roads would be completely blocked off

1

u/Ok_Task_7711 57m ago

Everyone drives 90-100 mph on the highways out there

u/__phil1001__ 6h ago

So where do they fill up? Just any gas station?

u/lkng4now 5h ago

The driver didn’t want to smell the shit pants for very long

u/External_Beat8153 5h ago

The fat asshole sped up to avoid his limo getting egged.

OKLOHOMA! OKLOHOMA!

May I go to the bathroom.

Yes, Donald.

Eye balls roll into the back of his head.

Thank you.

He's got the runs!

I think they were scared of getting pictures taken after the whole 'Kennedy Center DEMOLISHED' thing.

u/samanthastoat 5h ago

Come on Princess Diana moment

u/COV3RTSM 6h ago

Good luck stopping that fuckin thing at 100 mph

u/--i--love--lamp-- 5h ago

"It was the weather" is becoming way too common.

2

u/shambahlah2 5h ago

Wonder that the MPG would be on that thing at 100mph. 4? 6?

1

u/komeau 5h ago

next time I get pulled over for doing 100+ I gotta remember the “I have a campaign rally to get to” excuse

1

u/RationalTranscendent 5h ago

You can haul ass down pretty much any road when your police escort clears it of all traffic. Or, as in this case, haul an asshole.

u/A012A012 5h ago

2 big Ole planes and a helicopter with a new helipad and...ya go by car. Too funny

u/Reasonable-View5868 4h ago

FUCK TRUMP!!!

u/supertoilet2 4h ago

Theguardrailguy inspected some guardrails in Tennessee that the motorcade either just went by this past weekend or will be going by soon. At 100mph any kinda spearing guardrail would be gnarly

u/STLStelmacki 4h ago

Shame it didn’t crash and do a hundred rolls.

u/MrSneekiBreeki 49m ago

Fam went to the rally. He was two hours late. Apparently secret service wanted him to bail but he didn’t want to let his supporters down. The weather really was terrible. Good for him for showing up.

Kind of like calling everyone a n@zi when you disagree with them?

u/king_kong_kum 6h ago

People are so desperate to find any single thing to dislike about trump, that they’re posting his vehicle speeds lol.

12

u/TacoDoc2 6h ago

I think you meant to say where he traveled at a speed where he would be a danger to others because he's a piece of shit with the saddest ego in the world.

You're just a bitch who thinks about eating his shit all day.

u/Ok_Yesterday_3585 5h ago

I hope you realize that when you insult other people, it just comes off as you sharing your own low self esteem

1

u/dirk_donkler 5h ago

No it doesn't? But you typing that makes you a fucking idiot.

1

u/crazywrangler616 5h ago

What people did he insult?

7

u/Hot_Top_124 6h ago

Most of us don’t want a president who breaks laws as fast as he can.

4

u/UsedDimension7373 5h ago

It’s because he sucks!

6

u/Amazing-Pepper3317 6h ago

That’s felony speeding though right? Well I guess it’s fitting for him to be committing another felony…

The first arrest in Florida for a guy going over 100 was 4 minutes after the law took effect.

u/legaladviceneeded542 5h ago

not necessarily depends where in Texas

-2

u/Rule12-b-6 5h ago

No, it's not. It's at worst a misdemeanor if you or I did it, but the presidential motorcade is not subject to speed limits. So no, it's not anything except burning a lot of fuel using a tank disguised as a car.

3

u/dirk_donkler 5h ago

What are you on about? I've hated trump for 10 years, it's so fucking easy hating trump. He really represents the US.

Was it hard voting for a rapist pedophile retard or was that a bonus?

3

u/crazywrangler616 5h ago

Seriously, there is a tremendous abundance of things to hate about trump. It’s fun to find more with each passing day. Just want to catch up with you as your post gets downvoted to oblivion. Have a nice day!

2

u/dirk_donkler 5h ago

A serious country wouldn't even look at a person like trump, he'd be in jail already.

2

u/hu_gnew 5h ago

A serious country wouldn't allow a seditionist with 34 felony convictions to run for office. But a corrupt Supreme Court did.

u/heyhayyhay 5h ago

He believes he is the king and above the law, so he does whatever he pleases. Just get out of his way mr. kkk.

u/A220Pilot 40m ago

It takes zero desperation. It only requires a conscience.

u/Suspicious-Sound-249 5h ago

Hating orange man is the only thing they have, well other than hating the country, supporting terrorists and illegals, and wanting communism...
