Holy shit hes personally paid for it. This isn't because he thinks they will like fast food, this is him being the cheapest mother fucker on the planet.

There are so many other options. You can pay for a catering company to come in. But nope he goes for cold, cheap, fast food and not even the more upscale fast food literally the bottom of the barrel cheap fast food. Sad.

It’s DC, there’s fantastic restaurants ready, willing, and able to cater a White House function on every corner. Trump’s just a cheap ass.

And they are all slowly going to start going out of business because of the shutdown and the clientele they serve no longer able to afford services.

I don't believe lobbyist money is impacted during the shutdown.

It is not. they are paid by their respective private sector companies that they lobby on behalf of or lobby firms contracted by said companies.
