In the Trump White House, there is no such thing as normal.
Take for example the White House visit from the Clemson Tigers football team on Monday. Rather than have Melania put together a salad for the lads (his quip), Donnie ordered in burgers, fries and pizza from the likes of McDonald’s, Wendy’s and Burger King.
Let’s just stop in here before we go any further:
Yeah, fast food at the White House – what a treat.
I can’t take credit for this, but apparently the White House has been renamed the ‘House of Carbs’.
Never one to let the chance to blow smoke up his own arse pass by, Trump took to Twitter to let everyone know that he himself paid for the goodies.
I suppose paying for the food himself was a nice touch, even though he has caused the national shutdown that led to this point.
Just the one problem, in a tweet that stayed up for a few hours before being deleted by POTUS:
Hamberders? What is that, the new covfefe?
Yeah, the president of the United States can’t spell hamburgers. Then again, we’ve known about his lack of spelling ability for years.
This was last week:
He did it twice.
Anyway, Burger King wasn’t about to let POTUS get away with that hamberders gaffe, which leads us to this:
I can’t look at the word ‘hamberders’ without thinking about South Park and ‘they took our jobs‘.
This is all bursting with meme potential, so let’s check in with Huffington Post to see which ones they’ve picked:
Meh, they’re alright.
This, though, which is a real picture, is worth a thousand words:
Magic.
By the way, if you’ve ever wondered why Trump’s ties are always so long, the Guardian has this tasty nugget:
There are dozens of tips and tricks to wearing clothes that will make you appear slimmer. Turns out, Donald Trumphas his own: wear your tie long. Very long.
Trump recommends the fashion hint as “slenderizing”. Or so he told New Jersey’s former governor and White House wannabe Chris Christie, according to the latter’s forthcoming book.
In the new memoir Let Me Finish, Christie wrote of how Trump encouraged him to wear a long tie to make him look thinner during the 2016 presidential campaign.
For anyone who’s met or seen a picture of Trump, it’s clear the president consistently heeds his own advice. The end of Trump’s tie usually falls well below his waistline. Trump then adjusts them to make the front much longer than the back, and infamously resorts to criss-crossed sticky tape to affix the stub of the back end to back of the front end …
Another pro tip – eat less fast food, whilst watching Fox News and hate tweeting from your bedroom.
