Oh man, now I'm done. The President of the USA has literally now turned visiting the White House in to a fecking joke too.
It just makes me think of this....
You have your own McDonald's?
Imagine going to the WH to eat Big Mac?
On another note, be in no doubt who he works for. I'm not a fan of NATO mind you.

"We have pizzas, we have 300 hamburgers, many, many French fries, all of our favourite foods,"
The many, many French fries line really got me.

Oh yes. That was daft.
Has anyone here tried cold chips, burger and the very worst cold pizza?
Disgusting.

He is Eric Lassard.
That's it now. Twitter is going batshit over this.He really looks pleased with himself.
It's just adding insult to injury. Cold McD's is nasty. Why would you buy all that stuff and then lay it out on a table so it'll be cold and rank by the time the guests arrive? Dinner at the White House has become literally worse than walkking into a McDonalds.
Whatever else you might think about Trump, he played a blinder with the Pizza/Burger banquet. It's going to go down with his base really nicely.
Love the gold Candelabra's. Really adds a little class to the preceding.
How?
That's what I was thinking. 'He gets it'.
You give Trump way to much credit .He never thought this out for his base.
Don't underestimate him, his one skill is marketing to the working man.
How can going to the WH to eat cold chips play well with anyone?
"We have pizzas, we have 300 hamburgers, many, many French fries, all of our favourite foods," Mr Trump said as he hosted the event in the State Dining Room on Monday.
"If it's American, I like it. It's all American stuff," he replied.
Any MAGA supporter is going to look at that and think that the menu choice is better than the usual highfalutin buffet you'd get at The White House.
Laughing at Trump is nice and all, but he's a canny operator. Convincing yourself otherwise is not really helpful.
It's not like he had you know a hotel down the street with its own kitc.... oh wait.
He ordered those burgers because it's what he eats ,and there was a shutdown caused by him. A shutdown that have many working men and women going without pay.
He did not buy it just because its what he eats. He's extremely talented (whether its fully conscious or not) at tapping into the mentality of conservative working class America. Do you really doubt that his base are going to see these pictures and think its awesome? Seriously? It's a perfect piece of messaging that tells his base that Trump is one of them, and gives them a smug sense that the privileged are being brought down to the kind of level that they themselves have to live at.
If your regular family meal was a McDonalds or a KFC because you're poor and work long hours, can you not see the enjoyment you'd probably get from seeing the rich and famous getting served the same kind of food you're forced to live on? It's pure schadenfreude.
To be fair, if he'd ordered a luxurious buffet, we would have criticized him for using tax payers money on lavish food during the shut down.
This falls squarely in the who gives a feck, let's focus on the actual bad shit he does category if you ask me.

Isn't it his money?
It's probably still better than the steaks served in prisons over the holidays that WaPo and other right wing media used to try to stir people up.
Is McDonalds and KFC cheaper in the states than buying a proper meal consisting of vegetables, potatoes and meat at the super market?
Yes.
Yes, but also it's not just cost. Lots of people don't have decent cooking facilities or access to low cost food shops, and many, many other are working multiple jobs and long hours and don't always have the time/energy to prepare food from scratch. Others lack the education/skills to do so.
When I was in college I ate spicy chicken sandwiches almost everyday I was on campus. It was $1 each, McD was open 24/7 and after a long night of studying or doing homework I would not have much interest in making anything. It was either that or ramen. So its not just lack of education, that was the easiest available food.
Why would the base love him for that? They love football... isn't this very disrespectful of the athletes? People who have to take care of their bodies 24/7 and came to the White House for reaching the pinnacle of the game...
If you can't give a shit about the "billionaire president" serving up 1$ meals in the capital of the "richest nation on earth" after promising to "make the world stop laughing at us" i'd suggest a happy meal.

People don't have a kitchen nor a supermarket nearby? You surely can buy some vegetables and other healthy stuff in every supermarket?
America never fails to surprise me.
Not if it came from his own pocket in which case he would have to be applauded.
Instead this will fall under something that’s not a big deal because it’s Trump but if it was under Obama it would be the biggest disgrace ever.

And obviously he had to lie about the amount of hamburgers, just because... (inflating it by 300%).

It's daft to be sure, but kind of pales in comparison to all the xenofobic, backwards, cnutish shite he pulls off.
Also, I prefer a McKroket.
His doctor must be desperate.
Trump finally finds a sports team willing to actually visit him and he fecks it all up by serving cold shite.
On the other hand, it looks like fun (provided the food isn't, you know, cold shite) but I wonder if he'd provide the same food to a visiting politician or white collar ally.

It's mean't to be an experience visiting the WH ,something different. Might as well have all met up in McDonalds.
