Patrons at Miami eatery Versailles cheered when Donald Trump twice declared “Food for everyone!” during a surprise stop at the Little Havana hotspot. Then he left without buying food for anyone, according to a local report.
Fresh off pleading not guilty to criminal charges in a Miami federal court, Trump was all smiles as he entered the crowded restaurant Tuesday. Well-wishers sang “Happy Birthday” to the former New Yorker on the eve of his 77th birthday.
Trump supporters told NBC 6 South Florida they thought the 45th president was treated unfairly when he was indicted on more than three-dozen counts of mishandling classified information obtained while he was in the White House.
Citing “a knowledgeable source,” Miami’s New Times said Trump’s visit lasted roughly 10 minutes, leaving no time for much other than shaking hands and waving. Neither the restaurant nor Trump’s campaign has replied to a request for comment.
But that isn’t to say the former president doesn’t sometimes reach for his wallet.
When Clemson University’s football team won a national championship in 2019, their White House visit included hundreds of offerings from Burger King and McDonald’s that the former president claimed he purchased personally.
Trump defenders on Twitter noted the GOP frontrunner only said there’d be food for everyone at the restaurant — not that he was buying it.

Thanks for posting anti-Trump propaganda
Bull shit article...........All assumption and no evidence.
Someone better call Merrick Garland.
I’m going to invoke the 24-hour rule: All reports within the first 24 hours are suspect.
IMPEACH! IMPEACH!
Never heard of someone loudly announcing “drinks/food for everyone” without that meaning that he or she is paying the bill. Why even say that? Just to sound magnanimous?
FAKE NEWS!
If Trump said “I will pick up ALL tabs he would.”
I don’t believe for a minute that he did this. Knowing him, he will pay for it anyway just to prove a point.

“Is that a McRib?”

Trump had just been in the kitchen and multiplied six hamburgers into enough to feed everyone there plus the homeless shelter down the street. Why do people insist on not believing the guy? His detractors are on a course to crucify him — with the same result as the other guy. They’ll never figure it out.
New York Daily News??? LOL!!! WHO believes their CRAP? DUMB people do.
The NY Daily News is a notorious left-wing rag...
All they have to do is ask the restaurant.
I don’t believe it. Doesn’t ring true.
Except it was the New York Daily News. 🙂
I don’t care if he has alligator arms and long pockets. If his sharp teeth can bite into the enemy in his next term his money is no good in any non-woke restaurant from coast to coast.
Technical data:
Alligators have the strongest bite force measured; 2000 pounds per square inch.
For comparison, lions bite with 600 pounds of pressure and humans have 120 pounds of pressure per square inch!
It’s become pretty easy to smell the BS in these Trump stories just by reading the headline
The restaurant owners would not reveal that because it is private information.
This is just a smear piece because they didn’t see him walk up the register and pull out his wallet.
Yep... You can tell the sources are dumbed down kids who live in a fantasy bubble.
“twice declared “Food for everyone!” during a surprise stop at the Little Havana hotspot. Then he left without buying food for anyone, according to a local report.”
Should we make that a new thing at local activist left wing restaurants?
Go in and say “I hate Trump and am working against him. Free food for all who agree.”
Then quietly leave!
Absolutely,Years ago in Houston I was the managing bartender in a famous Houston watering hole. Ken Stabler came in one night after the Oilers won a trip to the super bowl, and ordered drinks for the house.
The first thing that happened was the police detail blocked the door so no one that wasn’t already in the place came in, second his Secretary/Treasure/attorney handed me a business card and an invoice and said “ fill out what we owe you and put in a 15% tip for you and the servers” ( That was back in the day when tips were 10% at best)
That’s how its done
