Hot garbage president serves cold garbage food
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.
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.
Seriously… Look at how cold that all looks!
Not sure what your angle is here but it was reported to have been cold lol
The salads might be ok. Might.
Thinking about the original photo, seeing so much junk food piled in the white house really feels like a AI generated image
It’s crazy that the only thing photoshopped in that picture is the size of his hands.
Zing!
Imagine going to the White House and being served a cold ass fast food cheeseburger.
This is high class to his voters.
Covfefe
Confeve!
Covid2024?
Hamberders
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.
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.
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.
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.
But he looks so proud of himself. Can you really hate him for that?
Yes. And specifically for that exact reason.

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.
Any caterer or restaurant in the DC Metro area would have provided $5000 worth of food for the publicity alone.
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.
But also… the picture.
He basically did a McBang.
It was a college football team. Basically a bunch of dudes in the early 20s. You think they care about fine dining?
Im not going to bother looking for it but there are videos of the players coming into the room and one of them is heard asking if this was a joke/real. They were dressed up for fine dining at a respected instituition, not a family BBQ at the park.
At the White House? Yes. Like, literally, are you a fucking dumbass? How hard in the head were you hit as a child? Or are you just the trashiest of trailer trash that’s ever existed?
Obama looked fly in the tan suit, this just looks fucking awful. Would you serve this shit to your guests?
TAN SUIT!!! How unamerican. The next thing you’re going to tell me is that he puts Dijon mustard on his hot dogs…
/s
You’d have to be a serious degenerate to go out of your way to eat a hot dog and not bother to put Dijon mustard on it.
It’s that the suit people shat on him for? It looks good. I don’t get wtf problem is with people.
Wtf America?
It’s because republicans are racist.
It wasn’t the fact that it looked good on him that he got crap for, it was the question whether it was appropriate for the occasion (a press conference discussing the potential escalation of military strikes in Syria).
Tradition demands that you wear a dark suit for something as serious as discussing the sacrifice of other people’s lives. A tan suit has more of a lighthearted vibe and is therefore something you’d wear to a festivity, not when discussing drone strikes.

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”.
It’s kinda funny. And don’t you mean tan suit?
Yes, that’s what I meant.
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.
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.
The families of the million Americans who died of COVID might disagree about those deaths being flies.
More people died of COVID while Biden was in office than on Trump’s watch.
Yes, because Trump and his people are anti-vaxxers who have convinced their legions to never vaccinate or wear a mask and they keep dying. And Biden has never suggested a bleach cure.
Trump supported the vaccine you idiot. It was the Democrats who were against it while he was in office, and then promptly wanted to make the very same vaccine mandatory as soon as Biden took over.
Sorry, stopped reading at the insult. I have no interest in Reddit-style behavior. If you want to talk to me with the courtesy I have afforded you, I will go back and read the rest of your post.
I have a feeling this will be replied to with another insult.
My biggest problem with this is that he didn’t have any Taco Bell.
The painting swap doesn’t add much to this, but is otherwise fitting.
You are what you eat after all.
Can confirm, I told my wife that I’m a pussy and she just said that I’m also an ass
Does anybody knows whose art of back painting? or is it AI stuff?
It photoshopped and swapped original image to match this situation but I couldn’t find it.
He even looks like he’d smell like he just did a body fart
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?
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. And you’re not alone…body fart is hilarious.
I’m gonna be 100% honest here. I would do this if i were president.
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.)
https://www.vox.com/the-goods/2019/1/15/18183617/trump-clemson-mcdonalds-burger-king-wendys-dominos
“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.
NGL I would absolutely love to sample a bit of every “hamberder” TBH.
What’s that? Serve a bunch of cold mediocre food? Yum!
There is a mountain of reasons to bash this dipshit. This… this was genius.
Now if you’ll excuse me, that pile of Wendy’s on the left is calling my name…
“HELLO PEOPLE OF AMERICA. IN THIS MUKBANG, WE’RE GONNA TRY–”
Partially explains the smell.
Also explains why he needs adult diapers.
People make this out to be worse than it is, it’s not a big deal and probably better for the players in the sense that it makes the event more casual
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.
They went because they felt they had to
Anything that makes it more casual and less of an obligation is a good thing
This reflects more of your opinion about obligations, or how you would feel in this situation, than anything else.
Lol
It’s an honor to be invited to dinner with the leader of your country. When that leader can’t pay the staff to make the dinner, so he orders McDonald’s, it’s not a relief.
It’s not an honour, it’s work
Same as if the CEO of your company brought you out to eat
Stop idolizing people, it’s dumb
You’re being honoured for your work achievements…
If I just won a national championship and was invited to the White House, I wouldn’t think, “I hope this is a casual affair.”
Well you probably never accomplished anything but most people, especially athletes who have had to be on a strict diet all season would rather party and just joke amongst themselves
So you think Trump saying, “there’s a partial government shutdown, so we can’t give you a fancy catered dinner full of the fanciest food you’re ever likely to eat in your life because it is literally made for the world’s royalty, but instead I’ve dug deep into my rich man pockets and spent $3000 on some room temperature Big Macs and Chick-Fil-A” is something that would appeal to them? Yeah, I guess you’re right. I mean it’s not like you’d want to be treated like a king after winning a national championship. Much better to have to travel to DC at the team’s expense and have the president buy them the worst possible burger he could have bought them.
But sure, it’s because I’ve never accomplished anything that I wouldn’t understand why someone would be honored to eat a Big Mac paid for out of Trump’s generous pockets when he could have had lobster flown in fresh from Maine. Or, I don’t know, catered well-made burgers from a good burger place. I’m guessing D.C. has one or two local places that might just possibly taste a little better than what they’ve got at McDonald’s.
Much better would be drinking all night and not going at all
how did you get “honoured to eat a burger” from “not as big a deal as people make it”
It’s not even that it’s a burger. It’s that he put it on display as a banquet, talked about how he paid for it personally, and he acted like they should be honored to eat the burger.
And, again, maybe it’s because I’ve “never accomplished anything” that I would hope that the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES would spring for more than a cold Big Mac after inviting me to the WHITE HOUSE.
I’d do what I could to offer those guys more than a cold Big Mac if I invited them to my house and I’m by no means someone who brags about his fabulous wealth.
I think they deserved to be treated better regardless of you think what they would have wanted because of all of your amazing accomplishments. I’m sorry, but your Nobel Prize doesn’t mean they aren’t entitled to be treated with at least the modicum of dignity as a visiting head of state.
I mean at the absolute very least keep them warm instead of taking them all out for a photo op where they’ll get cold! Is that making too big a deal out of it? Saying they were entitled to a warm Big Mac when visiting the President of the United States at the White House who brags to you about paying for it with his own money?
I thought by now you would have deleted this since it illustrates how people blow it way out of proportion
Yes, expecting someone to get warm food when they get invited to the White House is an embarrassing position and I don’t know why I haven’t deleted it yet. Maybe it’s my lack of accomplishments.
Being in the same room with a fascist is never ok.
How is that at all relevant to what he served?
'MURICA! WE GOT THE BRAINS!

Your logic implies that a hundred cows are killed to source a single burger. That’s not how that works. Be vegan, but don’t be stupid.

Yeah that’s true. Pretty horrific when you picture it.
I wonder how many mice died for the bun (and forests too)
Removed by mod
what they asked is how many died for the bun. not whether you think that line of reasoning is sufficient to discourage veganism.

Ed is quoting some pretty misleading statistics to support your point. if this is the best that you have, you might want to reconsider your position.

about 85% of all soybeans are pressed for oil for human uses. but a soybean is only about 20% oil altogether. that leaves 69% of the soybeans as industrial waste. feeding that industrial waste to animals is actually conserving resources.
so it’s not even true that the land used to make food for animals isn’t used to make food for people: it’s the same land.
