His go to selection was always the same:

  • Shrimp cocktail
  • Well done steak
  • Fries

In the final days of his presidency, Donald Trump couldn't be more isolated from the city in which he resides. But even before the heavy barricades and National Guard troops fortressed a sizable chunk of DC, he never made any attempt to be part of the local community. Case in point: In his four years in office, Trump only visited a single District restaurantā€”the one in his own Pennsylvania Avenue hotel.

To be fair, Trump was never going to be like Barack Obama, who was known for hitting up trendy hotspots for date night. And Republican presidents have historically ventured into mostly-blue DC far less than their Democratic counterparts. We all know about Trump's love of fast-food; he sent a former bodyguard to make McDonald's runs and catered White House events with Burger King and Domino's. (Although as far as we know, he's never actually stepped inside a DC fast-food spot himself.)

Fits his profile. Trump was definitely paranoid that someone would poison or contaminate his food.

Dude's funneling even more money to himself. Can't believe we made Carter sell his peanut farm but this shit was tolerated even for a second by the media and the government.

4 years of overdone steaks and he's still alive.
That orange lives of spite, it's the only way.

Amazing that a "billionaire" who has traveled the world and been at all manner of high end, glamourous, and international events has such an unsophisticated palette and limited taste.

Good article on this.

Trump is fundamentally uncurious.

Why Trump's Awful Taste in Food Isn't Just an Issue of Taste

Yes, it's easyā€”and fun!ā€”to make fun of Trump's taste in well-done steaks. But the president's taste in food reveals other, bigger, issues.

Don't forget 4 hours of sleep, being morbidly obese, doing a continuous series of store bought uppers, and so much more.

I want a fucking doctor to explain how this asshole is still alive.

Shrimp cocktail, overdone steak, and fries is the perfect cross-section of a toddler and a boomer creating a meal together.

Eating the same shit over and over sounds boring.

And it's likely shitty food cuz it's his hotel's food.

At least go to the Capital Grille like everyone else in politics in DC.

Eating shit all the time when you're full of money doesn't make you folksy, it just confirms you're a pig.

His being a sociopathic asshole aside, he has to also be the most boring person alive. His food tastes are unchanged from about five years old, he has no hobbies, doesn't listen to music, read books, write, watch films, TV shows, draw or paint, play an instrument, or really do anything other than watch TV news waiting for mentions of himself. Even all his opinions are either just self-aggrandizing, or copied from said cable news.

Let's be honest, there is more than ketchup on that steak if you consider how he treats everyone.

As for his last meal in prison, easy, extra rare steak with vegetables.

Ketchup makes it better imo. I don't cover the steak with it though, I dip bites in it.

Ketchup improves all types of foods, like: fries, hot dogs, hash browns, chicken, burgers, fish, or mac and cheese.

Sugar and salt with a touch of tomatoes tend to do that šŸ˜
