Former President Donald Trump, the man with a love for fast food that rivals even the hungriest of fifth graders, showed up to his civil fraud trial with a hunger that couldn’t be denied. That’s right, folks, his security guards were caught red-handed sneaking in bags upon bags of McDonald’s delights. The Golden Arches never tasted so good!

Now, let’s take a trip down memory lane and recall some of Trump’s past adventures with fast food. Earlier this year, he made a pit stop at a McDonald’s in Ohio and generously treated the local fire department to some meals after a train derailment in the village. And who could forget his bulk-purchasing of McDonald’s goodies during the government shutdown fight in 2019? He sure knows how to celebrate those college football champions, doesn’t he?
But let’s get back to the trial. Trump was found liable last month for inflating his net worth by billions of dollars (that’s a lot of Happy Meals!). Now, he’s facing the music in a lawsuit brought by New York Attorney General Letitia James. She claims that Trump and his organization exaggerated the value of their assets, including his beloved Mar-a-Lago. James is seeking a whopping $250 million in damages and wants to make sure Trump can’t do business in New York anymore. Ouch!
And just to add another layer to this already juicy story, Trump is also facing multiple indictments, including charges related to storing classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago residence and the events of the Capitol riot on January 6th. It’s safe to say that this former president has a lot on his plate (pun intended).
Now, all this legal drama isn’t stopping Trump from eyeing a second presidential term in the 2024 election. Will his fast food fiascos come back to haunt him, or will his love for those Golden Arches prevail? Only time will tell, my conservative amigos. Stay tuned!
