No, actually Trump WON the debate. Because he lied about pets getting eaten. Masterful strategy. (midwest.social)

Unfortunately people like him rarely do. He got Dilbert dropped from most papers in 2023 for (in the most charitable interpretation) having a completely tone deaf reaction to a poll about race relations. Rather than think about why everyone got so angry with him he said his words were taken out of context and that they were hyperbole.

Part of the plotline involved a black character who "identif[ied] as white" and the company management asking him if he could also identify as gay.

I know he never would, but I really want him to give the proper context for that to not be offensive.

That's pretty funny in the sense of a company trying to sell themselves as diverse and whatnot while being really offensive to the actual people. I can see a corporation doing that
