    Hot garbage president serves cold garbage food

    source
    • Potatos_are_not_friends@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      Fun fact - presidents pay out of pocket to host these dinners. It’s not a write off or anything, it’s straight cash.

      Other fun fact - Trump absolutely loves McDonald’s.

      So this trashy guy hosted a fancy dinner with McDonald’s, and paid about $1000 for it.

      source
      • ininewcrow@lemmy.ca ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

        Lol … Actually thinking that he paid for anything.

        He probably ordered it from the nearest McDonald’s and just demanded it all because he’s president, promised them they’d get paid … then never thought of them again.

    I know I’ll probably get downvoted for saying this, but the amount of hate he got for doing this was about as unwarranted as Obama’s white suit episode.

    There was a government shutdown and the White House catering staff was on unpaid leave. And he was hosting a football team, not some delegation of international politicians. He basically did what anyone else would do if they have an unexpected visit and no food in the house. His guests had no complaints either, only the press hated it.

    source
    • Buffaloaf@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      He could’ve just as easily hired someone to cater and make good food, instead he spent $5000 on fast food because he thinks that’s what college football players prefer.

      Also, Trump was the reason for the government shutdown because he wanted funding for his bullshit border wall.

      source
    • Bonehead@kbin.social ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      He basically did what anyone else would do if they have an unexpected visit and no food in the house.

      And this would be understandable if he were a middle class housewife. But this is the US president, during a shutdown caused by Trump. There should have been any number of restaurants that would have dropped everything to fill an order for the White House. This entire episode was just an embarrassment.

      source
      • stevehobbes@lemy.lol ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

        A middle class family couldn’t afford this much McDonald’s. They’d also have more taste and class than to serve this.

        Agreed they could call many restaurants that offer catering. Or, he, his wife, or any of his adult children could have made a home cooked meal for stellar optics instead of this travesty.

      Yeah you’ll get downvoted, because spending 5k on cold hamburgers from McDonald’s ist not something anybody would do. It’s something an idiot would do. Everyone with two brain cells would have started calling large restaurants or catering providers and ask them if they can make something happen.

      source
      • themeatbridge@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

        Any caterer or restaurant in the DC Metro area would have provided $5000 worth of food for the publicity alone.

        source
    • hperrin@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      Maybe he could have gotten restaurant food instead of fast food. Just because they’re a football team doesn’t mean they don’t appreciate good food.

      I don’t think anyone would really even remember if he hadn’t written hAmBeRdEr. No one was talking for weeks about how this incident clearly made him an inappropriate president. We laughed and moved on for the most part. Not remotely the same as the tan suit “incident”.

      lol imagine thinking that wearing a tan suit and serving people cold ass McDonald’s is equivalent.

      You trumpers try way too hard to find equivalencies when the easier option is to just admit what a fuck bag the dude is. He isn’t worth defending ffs.

      • MacNCheezus@lemmy.today ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

        I’m not even a Trumper, I don’t care if he’s re-elected or not, but he certainly wasn’t as terrible a president as everyone says. Most of the drama was just the media making flies into elephants.

    • FlyingSquid@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      It was a dick move like everything else. He hosted the national college football champs during a partial government shutdown, but rather than pay for some nice food from a third party for those champs, he figured that just being in his presence was reward enough, so enjoy your shitty fast food, boys.

      In an explanation for the evening’s menu, White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders tweeted, “The Democrats’ refusal to compromise on border security and reopen the government didn’t stop President Trump from hosting national champion @ClemsonFB tonight. He personally paid for the event to be catered by some of America’s great fast food joints.”

      Though he told reporters that he had personally bought “300 hamburgers,” in a tweet the next morning that number had skyrocketed to “1000 hamberders [sic].” (Photos and videos of the scene show that the lower number is likely the more correct one.)

      vox.com/…/trump-clemson-mcdonalds-burger-king-wen…

      “1000 hamberders” would have cost him what, $3000 at most? When he flaunts how rich he is constantly? And then brags about it?

      Dick move.

      Ok, maybe I’m ignorant, maybe I found the phrase “body fart” hilarious, maybe both. But can someone please tell me what is the difference between a regular fart and a body fart?

      source
      • Smoogs@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

        Excessively smelly usually because of intolerance to foods, swallowing air or if you get constipated because of stress so your body is expelling all the air it can possibly find in the colon.

      They didn’t travel to the white house expecting or hoping for “casual”. They got cold fast food because the entire government had been shut down.

      Oh yes I’m sure all that fast food tasted great after two and a half hours of sitting around while the entire batch was cooked, then transported, then arranged carefully, then had all the eventgoers show up to room temperature food.

      McDonald’s barely tastes that f I wait more than 10 minutes after getting it in the car…
