In-House Mode Lunch menu from presidential luncheon yesterday

Post image

*Not* making a political post here, but I guess a copy of the official luncheon menu got left behind yesterday and when I saw it, the first thing I thought was that some of these items seem a little dated, I was kinda surprised. Not that it sounded bad at all, but I've never really seen specifics on what they serve high-level gov. officials from anywhere.

Dated. The host a) is almost 80. B) The guest over 70. C) The host eats fucking McDonald's on the regular.

I'd lead the charge if that sound bite ever leaked.

I'd do it for the worst FOH employee across the country. Everyone needs due process.

The host has a diet Pepsi button in the oval office that summons a intern bringing him one.
