In Bellville, about an hour or so northwest of Houston, Trump Burger is your standard burger joint with the added twist of being a monument to former U.S. President Donald Trump.
The restaurant caught my eye after a former colleague snapped a photo of it while picking her son up from camp nearby. So I decided to go check it out. Its hard to miss in person: Pro-Trump banners and American flags hang from the side of the patio deck. Front and center, atop the restaurants name, is an illustration of the 45th president.

At first, I was shocked.I would have expected Trump to demand a cut of their sales. But then I got to the last line in the story....
a portion of the restaurants profits go toward Trumps fundraising campaign.

"... a portion of the restaurants profits go toward Trumps fundraising campaign."
They are tithing. It is a religious cult!

He can parody his own "Hitler Burger" jingle.

Just to be there to see the look on this gullible fucks face when the cease and desist letter comes from Trumps lawyer.

Epic lunacy. Did they see a photo of their infallible god at the Saudi golf tournament this weekend? Jesus, talk about forty mikes of bad road.

A fancy bun, with fancy patterns of ketchup and mustard all over the top like a Jackson Pollack painting, and nothing inside.

as a monument to the MAGAt king.
