Is This The Dumbest CNN Headline Of All Time?

Breaking news from CNN: President Trump got two scoops of ice cream with his chocolate cream pie, whereas everyone else only got one. This crucial piece of information was revealed in a TIME Magazine interview with the president.

Seriously: Who cares? It's ice cream. Good for him. He's the president of the United States.

There are so many more important things to either freak out about or report on, yet for some reason we're running with the president's dessert habits. No wonder nobody trusts the media any longer.

The REAL scandal is that everyone knows whipped cream, not ice cream, is the proper topping for chocolate cream pie. ;-)

That’s it.

I’m off the Trump Train.

We’re past “Peak Trump”.

Anyone who still supports President Trump is a hateful, mean-spirited ice cream hog!

Now we finally know how those two scoops of raisins made it into the Kellogg Raisin Bran.

"everyone knows whipped cream, not ice cream, is the proper topping for chocolate cream pie."

It's good to be the President.

The underlying assumption in this stupid CNN segment is that the others couldn’t have two scoops if they wanted it, as if Trump was getting two and forcing others to only have one as some show of dominance. Once you understand that’s not the case, this article is all the more silly. I actually like Trump’s eating habits. He eats McDonalds, he drinks Diet Coke, he eats ice cream with his pie. He’s not some urban swish who would be horrified at the thought of eating ice cream and fatty food.

if we'd only knew this would happen BEFORE the election!!! Kids are starving in Ethiopia for ice cream and this tyrant got TWO count them TWO scoops. How can I explain this to my kids??? I am sooo glad CNN brought this to our attention. I need a safe place to think about this. I shudder to think how history will treat this mans legacy after this. And it didn't even look like Ben & Jerrys either!!! It looked like plain old vanilla. What kind of president did we elect??

The worst part is the headline suggests that he is taking 2 scoops and not allowing anybody else to have more than one.

When the story was really just that Trump likes 2 scoops of ice cream on his dessert, while most people just get one scoop.

I tend to want two scoops with my desert, so I understand.

This is a great example of how stupid communism is, and the ridiculous lengths the media will go to in its attempts to spread disinformation and assault the characters of targeted individuals.

People are not seeing the real scandal here... the crux of the matter is the ice cream flavor.

You know folks, when I first heard about his yesterday, I laughed, thinking it was a joke, then reading this article, THEY ARE SERIOUS!!!

Are you kidding me???

I think they have all lost their minds...they have become ‘unhinged’ from the wood on the door frames that holds the doors in place!!!

BREAKING NEWS!!!

It has been just recently reported from UNNAMED SOURCES in the White House that while President Trump was entertaining some important Foreign Dignitaries that they were served an ice cream cone with only ONE SCOOP of ice cream, but the President got TWO SCOOPS of ice cream.

When asked about this, the UNNAMED SOURCES said it was because he said he deserved TWO SCOOPS because he FIRED former FBI head James Comey.

While the Foreign Dignitaries sat and watched, they laughed at the stunning remark from the President that was hosting their dinner.

Low news day, CNN? That’s when you bring up subjects like
The Olympic Selection Committee for 2020, or Replace/Repeal of Obamacare, or Out of work Kaepernick, now washing cars for ‘fun’ or Beyonce in her newest pregnancy gowns, if really, really desperate to fill the airtime.

Stupid media called it chocolate cream pie. Like it's the chocolate cream pie of yesteryear...chocolate pudding smothered in cream in a pie shell.

That's so old. They never heard of Dutch chocolate cream pie?

It demands at least two scoops of vanilla ice cream to finish it off.

At his next meal with reporters, he should have each one served the equivalent of Farrell's "The Zoo"

Then he'll laugh "Is that enough, or do you want more?"

Unlike CNN Trump “earned” his desert.
