The Washingtonian’s Jessica Sidman published an article today in which Trump Hotel employees recount their experiences waiting on the former president and his allies. The best details were the "Standard Operating Procedure" guidelines by which employees had to abide whenever The Donald stopped in to dine at his perennially reserved table. First the mythical Diet Coke button, now this:
Directions for pouring the soda were detailed in a process no fewer than seven steps long—and illustrated with four photo exhibits. The beverage had to be opened in front of the germophobe commander in chief, “never beforehand.” The server was to hold a longneck-bottle opener by the lower third of the handle in one hand and the Diet Coke, also by the lower third, in the other. Once poured, the drink had to be placed at the President’s right-hand side. “Repeat until POTUS departs.”
And forget standard-issue ketchup packets:
The manual instructed the server to open mini glass bottles of Heinz ketchup in front of Trump, taking care to ensure he could hear the seal make the “pop” sound.
But the fine-dining menu wasn't enough to satiate the president:
A tray of junk food needed to be available for every Trump visit: Lay’s potato chips (specifically, sour cream and onion), Milky Way, Snickers, Nature Valley Granola Bars, Tic Tacs, gummy bears, Chips Ahoy, Oreos, Nutter Butters, Tootsie Rolls, chocolate-covered raisins, and Pop-Secret.
The best part? Trump orders his steak well done. (Apparently this is common knowledge, but it was news to me.) I'm no food snob, but I somehow expected differently of the proprietor of luxury hotels and dining establishments. If Trump weren't a teetotaler, I'd suggest that he takes his wine on the rocks, too.
(Trump had a little red button on his desk which he pressed twelve times daily. It summoned a butler bringing him a diet coke on a silver platter.)
Trump occupies more space in your head than actually exists. Truly a wonder of physics.
Trump occupies more space at the table than two normal humans.
It must be nice to be able to eat like a billionaire anytime he wants to.

If it's a known thing that he will push it 12 times a day, why the button? I like the image of Trump eating ice cream, and washing in down with diet coke.

You wouldn't be implying that he had to buy his own plane because they were charging him for three seats, would you?

Most of us did not realize we could declare ourselves as a billionaire on a T-shirt and charge groceries on an almost maxed-out credit card after going down the gourmet aisle at Publix.
PS: the size of Trump's rear is his own business if he is willing to pay for the extra seats... but how can he reach to wipe?

He doesn't eat like a "billionaire". He eats junk food and snacks like an overactive teenager but he has the metabolism of a slug which results in his arse getting bigger every day. Eventually, it will block out the sun and what's left of his mushroom dick will disappear so completely, even Stormy Daniels and a team of Urologists won't be able to find it.

Perhaps some people think that someone whose diet is composed of a dozen Diet Cokes a day plus cheeseburgers plus well done steak with ketchup on it is a tasteless low life.

Trump is gone so it’s time to focus on the current admin.
My God. It's getting worse. Again I say:
Trump occupies more space in your head than actually exists. Truly a wonder of physics.

We should they should be touting Biden’s accomplishments.
I wonder what Trump’s diet is doing to his cardio-vascular system. Is he eating himself into the grave.
