Trump hosts Clemson at White House, serves fast food

President Trump hosted 2018 college football national champions Clemson at the White House last night. Citing the government shutdown, Trump spent thousands of dollars of his own money on fast food to serve to the players and coaches:

“I think we’re going to serve McDonald’s, Wendy’s and Burger King with some pizza. I really mean it. It would be interesting. And I would think that’s their favorite food.”

This is bizarre.

President Trump hosted the 2016 Clemson championship team in June 2017. He hosted the 2017 Alabama championship team in April 2018.

But somehow he had to host the 2018 Clemson championship team the week after the game?

I mean, clearly Trump wanted this to happen this way, but to what end? Is this, in his view, effective government shutdown politicking? Or does he just think this is a good look for him? For the White House? For the country?

How embarrassing.

  1. It is strange, I will grant you that. But, I think he did it so that the “elites” would fuss at him about the fast food. As in, how “low brow.” Which would then piss off the everyman who can’t afford fancy cocktail napkins and hors d’oeuvres.
