Trump orders McDonald's for football champions as shutdown cuts staff
The Guardian UK ^ | 14 Jan 2019 | Matthew Cantor

Clemson University’s football team on Thursday joined Donald Trump for dinner to celebrate their win over Alabama in the College Football Playoff National Championship. However, the government shutdown has left much of the White House staff furloughed, forcing the president to set the menu, the spokesperson said. The event created a golden culinary opportunity for a president whose typical evenings reportedly often involve a cheeseburger in front of the TV. On Monday’s menu was “McDonald’s, Wendy’s and Burger King’s with some pizza”, Trump told reporters.

Bet he got it from this McDonalds. Open til midnight:

ТЦ "Охотный Ряд, 1, Moscow, Russia, 125009

Because midnight in Moscow would be 4 PM in Washington.

Quick, someone call Mueller.

Funny but written by snowflakes. No heating lamps? Like the food would last that long. Ever see these guys eat?

don’t know why he would be concerned. Fruit saiads, leafy salads, bread rolls, pizza, hamburgers - All-American breakfast of champions!

What no Chic-fil-A? Must be banned in DC.

Not a whole lot of Chic-Fil-A's in DC, but there's one in Foggy Bottom, one in Union Station and another up in Adams Morgan.

My favorite burger in DC is to be found at the Hawk 'n' Dove on Pennsylvania Ave., SE, on Capitol Hill. Opened during the Vietnam War, it has attracted hawks and doves ever since.

Going to the White House? My very last concern would be what I’m going to eat. From my perspective, all these leftist Trump haters have become unrestrained mental cases.

Such an ugly evil 3-year long spectacle they’ve directed and produced.

Improvise, adapt, and overcome. Need help rely on what makes the USMC first in last out. DJT must have a connection there somewhere. I’ll bet them boys could eat too.

That's where your mom chews all the color out of a piece of cardboard for you then spits it on your plate. At least, it tastes like prechewed cardboard...

Barley, rye, oats, or even cream o wheats in a pinch is better for breakfast and cant imagine why I would eat such a thing any other time.

I’m sure some are may be disappointed but to me the meal would
be last thought when getting to meet with the President.
