"SNIP......
Donald Trump has traded cheeseburgers for salads in the presidential dietat least some of the time.
The president, whose trademark dinner on the campaign trail consisted of two McDonalds Big Macs, two Filet-o-Fish sandwiches and a chocolate milkshake is cutting back following doctors orders to drop a few pounds, according to three people familiar with the matter.
Less red meat, more fish.
One person said its been two weeks since he saw the president eat a hamburger.
......
Trump so far has embraced the new regimen, giving aides the impression he feels he is thriving on his new diet, they said.

Now go ahead and order two buckets of KFC with lots of mashed potatoes and gravy.

I care. I'm done with trying to give Trump credit for things like his democratic gun control stance on wednesday when he is just going to flip back. I hear the meme that it is Trump's Republican Party. No. It is all republican all the time party. The republicans want to be known as Trump's underlings so if he gets impeached by democrats they can say to Democratic and Independant voters 'we were just following Trump'. To Trump's base who would be angry they'll say 'we were supporting Trump'. IMHO. Just a guess. With little exception, Trump policies are full on republican. The Republicans, the NRA, ALEC, FOX News and the usual GOP suspects are the ones in control.

(63,221 posts)First of all, he isn't going to let anybody tell him what to do, and secondly, he is hating this and can't wait to scarf down that next bucket of KFC and gravy. He has no self-control or discipline. I give him a day or two, max.
