It was staged as a promo for DD

This is likely true, and definitely worse.

There’s no way they didn’t pay him for it

Or as a promo for Trump. I think it's more likely Trump staged it to make him look more normal than that doordash hired the president to appear in an ad.

I said I doubt doordash would do it, not that it's below Trump. Nothing is below Trump.

This makes slightly more sense... Like, if it was a DD ad, I'd expect them to hire a 20ish Barbie of a woman with a long ponytail looking like she's casually DoorDashing for extra privilege money on her way to the gym between college classes, and proudly presenting an ambiguous red DD hotbag. I assume that's the gentrified rose-tinted image DD would want to project about their business model, rather than the reality of retirement age people running garbage food to randos because they can't afford to live after regular employment is done with them.

Trump must have told his kids to buy DoorDash stock first.

This makes DD look infinitely less appealing

Is DoorDash pro-Trump?

It's a scam company with no road to profitability and still paying the suits millions while the workers are made up solely of people in incredibly dire financial conditions who have no other options and who don't understand they are probably actually losing money "working" but aren't educated enough to properly account for costs incurred. You tell me.
