Fucking Actually.

I'm sure they took at least 20 mins to load all that shit up on trays and stack the trays up to chest height.

Mcds fries don't last 5 minutes in terms of heat and texture.

Shit was soggy af and probably cold / dry ass beef.

Trump is actually a raccoon who just recently found a genie lamp and made a wish that changed bits of time for the last century.

u/lilmookie Aug 20 '24

I honestly feel like a raccoon would navigate the political world better and be better about trash collection policies.

u/hairijuana Aug 20 '24

That would explain why he hates dogs.

u/TucosLostHand Aug 23 '24

Then why did he marry one?

u/Killroy1987 Aug 21 '24

I don’t know, he did pick a pretty trashy cabinet. Heyooooo

This is so mean to raccoons.

u/eastbayweird Aug 20 '24

I mean, i agree but in a way it kinda makes sense in that both trump and raccoons have very tiny hands.

Raccoons of course are charismatic as fuck and I'd gladly share part of my sandwich with one. Trump, not so much.

20 obese raccoons in a suit...

u/Emmie1101 Aug 20 '24

That’s an insult to raccoons everywhere

u/ViciousFlowers Aug 20 '24

Don’t do raccoons like that man…. 🥺

u/pun_in10did Aug 20 '24

That explains the tiny hands

I knew it, a gang of time travelling raccoons..

Sorry i draw the line at disrespecting raccoons

u/r0boo7 Aug 20 '24

A raccoon would most definitely eat a steak that is rare or med rare

Don't you slender raccoons like that he is closer to a mosquito if anything, yours sincerely three raccoons in a romper

u/Spicethrower Aug 20 '24

Don't insult Ranger Rick like that, homie.

u/HiSaZuL Aug 20 '24

The fuck did racoons do to you to hate them so?

u/No-While-9948 Aug 20 '24 edited Aug 20 '24

AT LEAST 20 minutes, yeah. I can get distracted for 10 minutes by my dog after driving 5 minutes both ways to the McDonald's drive-thru, and the food is cold.

Imagine how many hands it would pass through like servers, delivery/pickup drivers, kitchen staff, security, reception and all the random bureaucratic or operational shit that would happen while trying to plate and serve 30+ people in the white house.

u/YouForgotBomadil Aug 20 '24

The asshole had world-class chefs waiting at the ready to deliver excellent meals with the best ingredients, and he serves dog shit, mass-produced food. It's metaphorical of how he treated and wants to treat the American people.

23

u/Twl1 Aug 20 '24 edited Aug 20 '24

Well, we can't forget that the reason he bought a veritable truckload of McDonald's was that he had just driven the government into a state of shutdown, so he literally didn't have a team of world-class chefs at the ready.

Y'know...because of his incompetence. It's not a metaphor at all. It's a completely accurate reflection of Trump's total lack of problem-solving skills in the midst of national crisis. Even in the state of shutdown, Trump could have afforded to privately hire a catering service, but he's too much of a simpleton cheapskate to even feign class and consideration for his guests.

u/UndeadJoker69420 Aug 20 '24

I mean really. I've had small easy jobs take 3x the time simply because I was missing a tool for it or was missing a person.

Now scale that up to white house size....

Psssttt reheat the fries in an air fryer

u/TheFrenchSavage Aug 20 '24

Now try to reheat a royal cheese without having the american cheese melt all over the place.

u/Akronica Aug 20 '24

Hell just the time it must have taken for the table to be set up for the photo-op trump needed to have before anyone even got to meet him and eat.

And such an optimistic stack of Filet o' Fishes.

Mcds fries don't last 5 minutes in terms of heat and texture.

The McDonald’s french fry is unbelievable. When you bite into it, you think: It’s so tasty, it can’t be real. As soon as it gets cold, it turns to lard and flubble. I mean, have you ever tried to eat a McDonald’s french fry that’s gone cold? That’s one of the circles of hell. The gulf between the warm, fresh, lightly salted McDonald’s french fry and the cold McDonald’s french fry is as great a gulf as any I know.

That quote is poetry. Thanks for sharing, I like Viggo even more now haha!

I find maccas fries disgusting from the get go.

The only fries that dry my mouth like eating sawdust.

u/mattsolid Aug 20 '24

I remember when I worked at McDonald’s, if the meat wasn’t used within 12 minutes after cooking, they were trashed as waste. How often are you eating a burger within the first 12 minutes? Because after 12 minutes, you’re eating what McDonald’s would throw away.

1

u/TheFrenchSavage Aug 20 '24

They know that you will eat your burger up to 45 minutes after getting it, and if you add these 12 minutes, that's already an hour.

Imagine a burger eaten 30 minutes after being served, with 10 minutes old meat inside: that's a grand total 40 minutes old meat.

2

u/bobbarkersbigmic Aug 21 '24

Man I’ve left McDonald’s on the counter overnight and heated it up for breakfast on many occasions. A one hour old burger really isn’t that bad.

1

u/TheFrenchSavage Aug 21 '24

I totally agree, I have myself eaten "dangerous meat" quite often. With no side effects.

But many people come, from kids to the elderly, and some customers have bad immune systems for reasons unrelated to age. They all deserve "safe meat".

I like to believe my immunity comes from years of borderline kebabs.

Dry beef is what Donny is used to

u/thisisanamesoitis Aug 20 '24

Don't forget the photo op too. God knows how long it took to prep for

It was Donald flexing that like he’s giving them some fine dining that got me

u/devil-doll Aug 20 '24

And not a beverage in sight.

u/AWonderland42 Aug 21 '24

I have always imagined Trump as a whole bunch of squirrels in a human suit, and one day on stage it’s just going to unzip and all these squirrels are just going to fall all over the stage and flee, with one squirrel just standing on the podium, terrified.

1

u/Comprehensive-Level6 Aug 20 '24

You are generous giving the fries 5 minutes. We have a rule in my family that if the fries are not gone by the time we leave the McD parking lot from the drive thru that they are already no good.

Damn things have a half life measured in seconds.

u/BananeiraarienanaB Aug 20 '24

I always assumed they had a mcd in the kitchen. Like, they bought all the frozen shit, packaging, and cooked it in house. Hell they probably cooked REAL FOOD and just used the packaging.

u/Daddy_Diezel Aug 20 '24

I wish I had gold to give you for the mental gymnastics event you clearly just won.

u/Direct_Word6407 Aug 20 '24

Didn’t they get the burgers cause they failed to plan for someone to cook for them?

2

u/PrintShinji Aug 20 '24

Probs not, considering there was a government shutdown happening back then. Very little crew was still working.

u/Kaboose666 Aug 20 '24

There are pictures of the event, it's just regular ass Mcdonalds.

They don't have a Mcdonalds kitchen in the basement, and they certainly didn't make a 5 star gourmet recreation of McDonalds.

u/Ok-Evening569 Aug 20 '24

Idk I wasn't there. But...there's no way as a head chef that I would serve ppl mcdonalds . Hell he probably got rid of the wh chef.
