U.S. President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama served traditional Thanksgiving food at the Armed Forces Retirement Home. The Home is an independent agency in the Executive branch and provides residences and related services to retired members of the Armed Forces. This is the final Thanksgiving that Obama will mark as President of the United States.
Sure, it’s a photo-op, a darned good one by the way, and all things considered I’m going to miss him and his family.
Also yesterday,President-elect Trump and family spent Thanksgiving at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago club in Florida. Their six option main course menu reportedly included “Mr. Trump’s Wedge Salad,” and a three layer “Trump chocolate cake,” dessert.
Trump, they say, will be hard at work today and for the coming weeks is planning to hold a series of large ‘victory rallies’ as some supporters have already been doing. Okay, there’s the circuses — where’s the bread?
You know what a “Wedge Salad” is…ANY wedge salad? It’s just a quartered head of iceberg lettuce with a creamy dressing…usually Thousand Island or, in Trumps case,
“Russian Dressing.”
It is the most un-nutritious, utterly “white bread” salad in the world. The perfect beverage accompaniment? “Tang”, of course.
How original! Chocolate cake for dessert.
I’ll bet nobody else in the family gets any say in what they eat for Thanksgiving dinner. He even insists on giving everything his name as if he invented the most boring standard American menu items from his childhood.
Even this old white guy’s digestive tract is stuck in the ’50’s!
Hahaha…thanks for the chuckle. The Donald thinks he is high class, all glitter and gold rather than the crass con-man he is.
