On Donald Trump's plate
The 45th President of the United States assumes culinary tastes without finesse. What if his gastronomic preferences betrayed his political strategy while explaining his tyrannical outbursts?
The most powerful man on the planet lives in the White House, travels by private jet, and has five chefs at his service around the clock. What does he do when he gets a little hungry in the middle of the night? He sends his secret services to the nearest McDo, of course. The United States has chosen a president who sees American tradition as a 1950s-style suburban dream, in which a 100% Caucasian and straight population swims in imperialist abundance. No wonder, then, that his idea of a good American meal necessarily involves industrialized fast food instead of the very Rooseveltian homemade apple pie.
"There is nothing closer to the people than fast food"
Donald Trump, or junk food in power: Numerous news reports over the years have revealed that the president derives no pleasure from food (he even compared it to gasoline), and detailed his eating habits.
Trump doesn't eat breakfast often. On occasion, this consists of deep-fried eggs and bacon. Nor is the lunch break a time to relax at the Oval office.
