Apropos of nothing why did Trump serve collegiate champions Wendys* at the White House?

[DemocratSinceBirth]

It wasn't anti-elitist. It actually dripped with condescension to believe average Americans want to be feted with fast food on special occasions.




*Maybe it was Burger King or McDonald's.

1. Government shutdown

[DemocratSinceBirth]

4. Even if the government was shut down he could have hired a caterer.

[FSogol]

14. The govt shutdown did not affect the White House staff or kitchen. n/t

[Walleye]

2. He's a natural low class cheapskate. No other reason

It’s obvious he has no taste in anything

[Alacritous Crier]

8. Yup.

[FSogol]

15. +1 n/t

[hlthe2b]

3. Did he? I thought he served McDonald's Big Macs and Burger King...at least to Clemson

As to why fast food--his ignorance prevailed. No elite athlete at any major university is fed that kind of crap.

[DBoon]

5. were the athletes mainly Black?

That may have something to do with it.

[Voltaire2]

7. yup

[magicarpet]

6. Hot Pockets and Lunchables,...

Are top shelf gourmet eating for trDumpie.

[BlueIdaho]

9. Another Trump Payday.

I’m sure the choice of food came from the highest bidder.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

10. It wasn't just fast food.

Fast food, when served fresh and right, can still be a very tasty—if unhealthy—guilty pleasure.

Fast food sitting cold on a table for a couple of hours, however, is no one’s idea of a good meal.

And that’s what he did.

He served cold fast food.

[ms liberty]

12. This. n/t

[lame54]

11. As predicted on Bill and Ted...

[Luz]

13. Last minute preparation??

[DemocratSinceBirth]

16. You don't think POTUS could get a caterer to work quicker?

[Luz]

17. Quicker than sending Laura from accounting to the

nearest McDonalds?? I doubt it. It all looked like a surprise visit when you weren't expecting to feed anyone.

[edhopper]

18. Because he thought

that is what the black players wanted to eat. Because he is a racist.
