Why use The White House executive chef, when the athletes can have cold mass-produced food? It's not weird.

r_13 @lemmy.world Has to be noted that the White house chef and the rest of the government employees were furloughed due to Govt shutdown. Still shit.

The one time the Dems shut down the government it was a legalism that was quickly repaired.
GOPs get elected and then mess up the government they are suppsoed to be running.

Just don't

Tyfud @lemmy.world Unfair characterization to not point out it was a republican dominated congress in both houses at the time that did that intentionally.

Flying Squid @lemmy.world Too bad the president at the time wasn't a guy who always bragged about how rich he was, a guy who had a hotel just down the street with a bunch of high-paid chefs that weren't just reheating Whopper patties.
35 1 ReplyDominusOfMegadeus @sh.itjust.works I would imagine his chefs are not paid well, to be honest

ashok36 @lemmy.world This is a perfect example of being completely right to be critical but for the wrong reason and the real reason is way worse.
Trumps ineptitude led to the white house staff being out of work without pay which had much larger real world consequences than some ball players eating a shitty meal.
How many of those furloughed workers kids missed meals entirely because of trumps fuck up? But there was no photo op at those kitchen tables.

Most of thar basketball team was black, and he assumed they would like mcdonalds because of it.
3 1 ReplyAwkwardLookMonkeyPuppet @lemmy.world Are black people known for liking McDonald's? That's a new one for me.

AbsentBird @lemm.ee I feel like Kamala would whip up a full course meal herself before stooping to cold fast food. By all accounts she's a great cook, and she grows her own peppers.

Dagwood222 @lemm.ee It's shitty.
Trump had a hotel in Washington. He could have had a great meal prepared there.
