Watch Trump Brag About the 300 Fast-Food Hamburgers He ‘Personally’ Bought For Clemson Football Team
We all know that Donald Trump loves himself some fast-food burgers, and today we learned that Trump personally paid for a fast food meal for Clemson football players visiting the White House on Monday to celebration their national championship win against Alabama.
According to the Washington Post’s Josh Dawsey, White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders explained that “much of the residence staff at the White House is furloughed – so the President is personally paying for the event to be catered with some of everyone’s favorite fast foods.”
