Reality: Amidst a government shutdown, trump invited a college football champion team to thr White House for dinner. Which ended up being a boatload of cold Mcdonalds.
I was going to say… I never thought about this at the time, but there’s no way that’s all not stone cold.
What a disgusting picture in so many ways. The most being the contrast to Lincoln in the portrait behind him. Convince me we’re not in full fledge “Idiocracy” mode.
Worse, the president in Idiocracy valued the opinion of people more intelligent than him.
Well, technically President Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho only enlists Not Sure/Joe Bauer’s help to fix the nation-wide food shortage caused by watering plants with sports drink (Brawndo’s got what plants crave, it’s got electrolytes) because they’re starving and don’t have any other options, and when he doesn’t fix it within one week he gets thrown into a demolition derby against monster trucks with only a dildo to defend himself.
So I wouldn’t say he necessarily valued the opinion of people more intelligent than him, at least until the prostitute from 2005 proves that watering plants with water (like out of the toilet) works just in time.
Great movie.
This picture was a carefully staged photo op, that Donald Trump wanted out there.
He also stared directly at a solar eclipse once.
Wasn’t this for that meal they had for some football team that were guests at the Whitehouse or something like that?
Also consider that at the time, the Trump International Hotel was mere blocks away, containing multiple high end restaurants. He chose McD’s, since he was such a billionaire.
He probably paid for the meals with gov funds. If he were to pay his own company with that money it’d create a conflict of interest. And if he was to have his own hotel cook then it’d cost him money.
