guy standing behind Trump

[EYESORE 9001]

1. It's the o-dair

Makes one swoon.

2. Gas warfare.

3. The guy behind the "fat shot"?

[niyad]

4. Honestly, I crack up every time I see that scowl. .it is so practiced, so fake.

He obviously believes (or has been flattered) that it makes him look tough and manly, but he looks riduculous.

11. I find it cartoonish.

What you do to manipulate emotions on not very bright or informed people.

[Solly Mack]

5. Trump looks annoyed by it. Attention on someone else.

[Deep State Witch]

6. Novo Nordisc Makes Wegovy/Ozempic

Lilly makes Zepound/Mounjaro. He probably got overwhelmed with the bullshit that the Lilly CEO was spouting and passed out.

Either that, or he'd just taken his weekly shot and got dizzy.

17. They make insulin

7. Dr Oz to the rescue. Good luck guy n/t

8. I'm surprised the nutjobs haven't yet freaked out over NovoNordisk's logo

[eShirl]

9. the Apis Bull

The Apis bull has been our logo since the year after the foundation of Novo Terapeutisk Laboratorium in 1925. The choice of the logo follows a European chemist tradition of identifying pharmacies through an animal symbol.

The logo is a stylised reproduction of an Egyptian statuette dating from circa 664–323 BC. It is richly ornamented with symbols representing among other things, the eternal dualities of life, day and night, life and death.

The Apis bull was worshipped as the incarnation of Ptah, creator of the universe, city god of Memphis and the patron deity of craftsmen.

13. Krasnov announcing cheaper weight loss drugs,

people who don't have money for food won't need to worry about weight loss drugs.

[milestogo]

14. Too bad it wasn't TSF.

[Johonny]

15. People cant afford health insurance

16. Greed kills.

[mercuryblues]

18. Some people would rather faint than

listen to Oranganis spew one more lie.

19. Novo Nordisk say it wasn't their Gordon

The man was initially identified as one Gordon Findlay, and many claimed he was a Novo Nordisk executive. “BREAKING: Novo Nordisk executive Gordon Findlay collapses during Trump's announcement in Oval Office, announcement suspended,” an account claimed on X.

However, the company has clarified that the man who collapsed was not with them. “CEO Mike Doustdar and EVP, US Operations, Dave Moore were the only two Novo Nordisk representatives in the Oval Office. We hope the gentleman who suffered a medical incident today is okay,” Novo Nordisk told Newsweek.
...
While Novo Nordisk has clarified that Gordon Findlay was not in the Oval Office meeting, he has been the Global Brand Director for the company since 2023, and is based in Basel, Switzerland.
