A new memoir implicates the Filet-O-Fish in a 2,400-calorie dinner.
Trumps appetite seems to know no bounds when it comes to McDonalds, with a dinner order consisting of two Big Macs, two Fillet-O-Fish, and a chocolate malted.
This 2,400-calorie meal is among the details in a forthcoming book by Trumps former campaign manager Corey Lewandowski and aid David Bossie, as described in a preview by The Washington Post.
A dinner of that size would offer caloric energy for a full day. The 3,400 milligrams of sodium more than doubles the American Heart Associations recommendation of 1,500 milligrams per day. The meal provides almost no fiberand also offers more white bread than anyone would do well to eat in a week. This is all ominous for the presidents cardiovascular system.
So is the lack of variety. The books authors, who traveled with Trump early in his presidency, write: On Trump Force One there were four major food groups: McDonalds, Kentucky Fried Chicken, pizza, and Diet Coke.
Keeping the Coke sugar-free is an interesting line to drawespecially as a man who once said, I have never seen a thin person drink Diet Coke.
The food enters the President not only in abundance, but with haste. Ivanka Trump said in a 2015 interview with Barbara Walters, I wish he would eat healthier and maybe slow down. Sometimes I tell him, like, Oh, you have to, you know, slow down. But its the only speed he knows ...
All of this could be taken as simple evidence of Trumps cultural vacuousness. He should know other speeds; he has dined with other people. He should enjoy a wide array of foods; he has been afforded the opportunity to have anything he wants.

Who can forget when you decided to send me your endless writings (privately) on FR to prove you were as erudite and as educated as liberal arts majors, lol.
New Yorkers are the cream of the crop as proved by our magnificent president. After all, we invented the Egg Cream, dummy.
“Yowch what pain!”
You ain’t just whistling Dixie, brother.
Fine. Love your ad hominum too!
eat it.
Thanks. Sometimes you have to go all ad hominum when people get too stupid for words.
Oh geee, ya mean we need to be instructed by even more fake, hate Trump news? You're suggesting we don't know what the lying left is up to after 2 solid years of non-stop 24/7 Trump lies, propagana and hate?
This is instructive? Really Simon?
Doubling down with the ad hominums! Wonderful! Such a gal!
Donald need to drop about 25 pounds
Melania should be on his case
Why I guess I thought your remarks were directed at me since you replied to me and did not cc any others ... so please be careful to whom you address your comments. I know it can get somewhat confusing in the heat of the moment even to commenting on the wrong post entirely.
Sorry about that.
One of the funniest SNL skits I remember was the late, great Phil Hartman doing his impression of Bill Clinton out jogging and stopping in a a local McDonalds eating all the customer’s food.
Just saying.
Guess the 1990’s are ancient history now.
The pathetic lefty Atlantic on display.
You can never tell from one article but it’s a good bet he’s a sodomite of one variety or the other.
Is there a brand name, or do you have to make them yourself?
Oh the horror!
2400 calories?
(In all fairness, our President runs pretty hard and may in fact use allnof those calories)
Have a recipe for that?>>>
Depending on the roast you can strip off fat which is over a 1/2 inch thick.Or you can leave it as is.
Salt and pepper both sides of Brisket Roast.
Place on a rack in a baking pan with a quart of beef bullion.
Put cover on pan.
Cook for 1 hour at 400 degrees and then turn down to 300 degrees for 8 to 12 hours, depending on the size of the roast. I often cook it over night. Remove cover for last hour before serving.The fat will melt and will crisp up the outside of the roast.
You can make gravy by draining off the fat, or serve it au jus, with fresh baked bread.Or use the drippings to make Yorkshire pudding in the baking pan my favorite, no muffin tins, right in the pan.).
Note that this is not a BBQ recipe for brisket roast. You can do this right in your electric oven.Makes a fantastic dinner.
The egg cream is not really very good and like Russian cars, is not capable of being exported.
Not knowing the difference between a malt and a milkshake is positively provincial
Go away, you’re boring.
Who doesn't know the difference between a malted and a milkshake? More importantly, is do YOU even know what a phosphate is..without looking it up?
And what's with Russian cars?
