The Democrats’ refusal to compromise on border security and reopen the government didn’t stop President Trump from hosting national champion @ClemsonFB tonight. He personally paid for the event to be catered by some of America’s great fast food joints

1. I wonder if it was cold.......

By the time the players got to it.

[rzemanfl]

2. BFD Huckleberry Pearls. I will believe it when I see the receipts and

the checks clear. Do you eat like that? I won't speculate.

[Docreed2003]

3. Again...

His "rich ass" couldn't afford to spring for something a little more upscale? Nah, 2 for 5$ menu works. Smdh. What an embarrassment and it's a perfect metaphor for this goat wrangle of an administration.

5. This is the respect he shows for the WH. Much like Kanye pounding on the Oval Office and saying mf

This is the respect he shows for the WH.

Much like Kanye pounding on the Oval Office and saying mf for the cameras.

8. I would expect nothing else from that classless mfer

[gratuitous]

4. No cheese plate appetizers

So you know none of the players had to fight with Sarah Sanders for a place in line.

[RockRaven]

6. To the extent that America, or any country for that matter, has any "great fast food joints"

the ones chosen by this ignorant, tasteless, low-class moron are NOT them. NOPE. Try again, Huckster-Slanders.

7. I see 'compromise' is code for 'I get everything I want, you get nada' in Sanders speak.

[kairos12]

9. What, no Slim Jims and Moon Pies?

[dubyadiprecession]

15. At least those would be sealed.

Mcdonald's employees probably added special sauce to those burgers, once they found out the Whitehouse ordered them.

[dawg day]

10. He paid for cold junk food?

The White House employs a highly-trained chef with a staff, and I'm sure they could have created a healthy and delicious and HOT meal for these young champs.

[DesertRat]

16. I'm sure that pizza and burgers made by the WH chef & staff would be outstanding

What point is he trying to make serving cold fast food crap?

[tblue37]

20. The kitchen staff are furloughed--but he COULD have sprung for a caterer and decent food. nt

[Luz]

24. It was coming out of HIS money, though. My guess is that

somehow, he didn't really pay for this either. He's never paid for anything.

[JHB]

27. He has a big hotel half a mile away. How hard to have them cater it?

He'd at least be keeping the money in his pocket, and probably get reimbursed for it after the shutdown is over.

[SammyWinstonJack]

37. He stiffed a caterer once. I'm sure word gets around.

[a kennedy]

11. and I could be wrong, but I only saw one African American player in the line......

[MandelaObama]

32. I noticed that

There were a few different shots from various angles but it looked like the same guy each time

[Kajun Gal]

12. Lotta out of pocket money for hamburgers and pizza! Big ticket item!

[Crutchez_CuiBono]

26. They shouldn't have even gone.

Solidarity w America and all.

[tavernier]

13. Hey Big Spender

Spend... a little time in jail, bump ba bump bump bump.

[malaise]

25. ROFL

14. Sarah Suckabee:

BS:
"The Democrats’ refusal to compromise on border security and reopen the government...."

Corrected:
"Trump’s refusal to compromise on border security and reopen the government ...."

There, fixed it for ya.

[Grammy23]

17. How big of him.

He probably had the staff instructed to make sure no one left with silverware or a silver tray. Which come to think of it was kind of ridiculous considering what they were serving. Silver service and candelabras for fast food?? Emily Post just rolled over in her grave.

[IllinoisBirdWatcher]

18. Practice for the next State Dinner. eom

[dweller]

19. listen carefully, you cornpone shuckster... catering

ain't takeout...maybe that's what your deddy called the squirrel in the cardboard box you were dining on growing up, but no and fuck no, that ain't catering... it's better known as cheap stake SOS


✌🏼️

[Cha]

21. BFD.. you Gaslit Twit

[shanti]

22. What an insult

Hopefully, the team didn't touch it.

[onethatcares]

23. I can picture how this happened

white house staff member: "Holy cow, look who just stopped by. It's the Clemson basketball team".

conman don: "any idea what we should do?"

whsm: "I don't know, but they look hungry after that bus ride"

conman don: "here's 20, go get some burgers and fries. I saw there was a 2 for $5 deal at BK".

whsm: "great idea pres. That should hold em".

conman don: "Get me a super double delicious combo with a diet coke, and don't fuck it up."

[LakeSuperiorView]

29. It was the football team. The basketball team couldn't eat 300 burgers.

What I want to see is pictures of "6 foot 3 inch 236lb " Trump standing next to all these athletes that have published heights and weights.

[Vinca]

28. He purports to be a billionaire. Couldn't he have hired a world class chef and hired a catering

company to provide his guests with a decent meal??????????? I don't know why the team stroked his ego in the first place.

[JHB]

30. I'll just leave this right here...

[D_Master81]

31. What Chilis or Applebees isnt open on a Monday?

Just like when his receipts for charitable donations came out during the campaign ad it was something pitifully low, when he springs for something he goes on the cheap.

[GoCubsGo]

33. I don't recall any other national champions getting a meal with their visit.

AFAIK, championship teams don't traditionally get fed on their visits. Sometimes they'll get to see the Oval Office, but usually they all gather in the press room for some speeches, and presenting the President with a jersey and other gifts. After the dog-and-pony show, everyone goes about their business. No meal. No coffee and donuts. No drinks and appetizers.

This was just a set-up for more of his bullshit distractions. He threw some junk food at these kids in order to pull his "Look how generous I am! Poor me! I'm forced to shell out my own money to feed them, because the Democrats are being mean to me" act. People are talking about this bullshit, instead of his crimes and inability to do his fucking job. These kids were just pawns in his stupidass reality show.

[Miles Archer]

35. Of course.

Mueller, the #TrumpShutdown, the NYT story.

Every time Trump pulls something like this I remember the famous "Simpsons" episode in which Bart is told to create a "distraction."

So he starts wiggling around, doing a stupid dance.

Milhouse looks up and yells "Hey everybody, look over there! Bart is DOING STUFF!"

And Principal Skinner snaps "BART! Stop creating a distraction!"

The more things change, the more they stay the same. Clemson ate and went home. Cue the next distraction.

[spanone]

34. well, when you're a 'billionaire'

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

36. He has a hotel down the street
