Does he actually like that crap? I thought it was a show because he thought his base would eat up him liking that crap as well as making the elites who are used to 5 star chefs eat that cheap shit at white house events.

Unless this is also part of that act and they'll make a show of ordering and sending some intern to pick it up and verbally abuse the workers, and then maybe make the interns eat it while he actually eats good food.

yes, he forced his admin in his first to eat a large mcdonalds cater, he uses the secret services to deliver the food.

Honestly probably an actual improvement to his diet. Which is bizarre to say but he probably eats roadkill.

Trump actually loves it, not a joke. He's obsessed because, for a long time, fast food was cleaner. Unfortunately Trump's image of McDonald's and other fast food is stuck in 1960

Someone mentioned he had fear of chefs and fast food was safer. Not sure of true

During his first term, if you were invited to the Whitehouse, there was a better than even chance he'd have a stack of McDonald's burgers there to serve you.
