WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)Capping a singularly disastrous week for the Commander-in-Chief, Donald J. Trump stormed out of a Washington, D.C., McDonalds restaurant on Friday after failing to close a six-dollar Meal Deal at the establishment.
At approximately 12:30 p.m., Trump took a break from his designated executive time to travel to the nearby McDonalds, where he placed an order for a Meal Deal consisting of a Quarter Pounder with cheese, fries, Coke, and an apple pie.
Tracy Klugian, the McDonalds employee who took Trumps order, said that he was aware of Trumps difficulty in closing deals and therefore hiked the price of the Meal Deal to twelve dollars.
I really thought he would drive a harder bargain, what with The Art of the Deal and all, the McDonalds staffer said. I was kind of surprised when he just bailed.
With the McDonalds deal in tatters, one White House aide acknowledged that Trump really needs a win right now, and that he was en route to Arbys.
