The sitting president of the United States doing a commercial from the White House for a company headquartered in Puerto Rico - the same Puerto Rico where he tossed rolls of paper towels to people after a hurricane destroyed their country.

I'm 99% sure it is. The only hesitation is that the Trump presidency was so unhinged that you could make all manner of nonsense up and it would seem truthy. There was a whole thing where the owner of Goya beans endorsed him or something and Trump and his cult got really weird about buying and promoting Goya products for like a month.

Oh. Yeah. I'm jealous you don't remember this whole scandal. Goya was linked to some far right ideals, but I forget the details. Bad enough I stopped buying goya.
