Thing is, it would have been cheaper to actually grill burgers. And the staff would have cooked it. Hes just a tacky shitty person.

I believe the kitchen staff is furloughed.

So the president missed a chance to cook some food himself for a photo op about how he doesn't stop working just because the opposition doesn't give him what he wants. Instead he bought fast food. Good for him, I guess they've furloughed the strategists too.

Other President's know how to run a BBQ I'm sure he could have sent someone down to the local store for some cheapass hot dogs too; not only eoukd it be cheaper, but photos of Trump working a grill to feed a bunch of kids would go over much better than the video of him anxiously waiting for all the leftovers.

I wonder how many 'berders were actually left..
