Trump Takes Away Congress’ Annual Ribeye ‘Picnic’, Sends Steaks To…​


By Andrew West
June 22,2018

Now, however, another piece of the humanist in President Trump is showing through, as a debate over Congress’ ineffectual work on immigration rages.
You see, today was supposed to be the annual congressional “picnic”, which is literally just a 5-star meal served in a tent to these Washington fat cats.
That’s right: cancelled. When asked why, the President gave a very blue collar answer.
As the immigration debacle looms large over the halls of Congress, President Donald Trump decided to scrap the lawmakers’ annual congressional picnic at the White House because it just didn’t feel “right.”
~Snip~
Wasting food would have only added insult to injury, so the President did what any MAGA-hat-wearing populist POTUS would do:
He sent all those ridiculous ribeye steaks over to Walter Reed.
All the food will be served Friday for lunch at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, according to a report from Bloomberg News. The food will be given to patients, caregivers, and employees at the Warrior and Family Center in Bethesda, Maryland.
“All perishables donated to Walter Reed. Non perishables to be repurposed for future events,” Stephanie Grisham, spokeswoman for first lady Melania Trump, said.​

Great ... Kudos to Mr. President on that decision... It is time to put these diva's in their place. It is time for them to role up there sleeves and get to work for the American people. Congress needs to understand the gravy train is over. Instead of rib eye steak serve them hot dogs like the rest of the American people have to eat. Thank you President Trump for your love for the hard working American people. We love what your doing to drain the swamp.
Hmm..., Nothing like a medium rare steak for a job well done. Had congress actually worked together in collegiate partisanship to fix the broken immigration system, they could be rewarded with a nice dinner. Because people on both sides of the isle want to be obstructionist and not put in the work well... No steak for you!
Now the people at Walter Reed have worked. Many of them have been injured doing that work for America. Not only do the hard working veterans and staff deserve steak, they've earned it!
I wonder how the Fifth Column media will handle this?

Would have been nicer if he thought of the poor people who don't know from where their next meal is going to come. Now that would be a truly humanist thing to do. But he rarely if ever thinks of them anyway.

Why do you lie so bad?

CNN | White House donates canceled picnic food to Walter Reed
 
deep in preparation for the event, methodically grilling hundreds of large steaks just outside the press area,
President Donald Trump announced he would cancel the annual bipartisan event.
"It just didn't feel right to me," he told reporters.

So you'd deny those wounded G.I.'s in the Hospital one good meal. Illogically you've made a clam, while Trump has worked hard to raise the economy, and help to raise Americans out of poverty. There will always be the poor. Everyone especially the Left forgets that president Trump has donated his presidential salary to charity. Hmm...., did Clinton, Bush, or Obama do the same?

What a generous heart. He steals people's children, is talking about cutting SNAP and Medicaid for the poor, working poor and veterans -- after he gave tax-cuts to billionaires and makes it all up by with a token gesture so his brain-dead zombie followers will think he's a populist instead of the plutocrat that he really is.

The last president to do so was John Kennedy. Since you asked. But all the presidents you mention have a record of significant charitable giving, which was demonstrated by their released tax returns. So they in effect, paid taxes on their salary and then donated it.

Correction, Trump SAID that he donated his salary to charity. He has failed to document that he really did. He said the same thing during the campaign and the charity didn't get any money until months later -- when reports starting poking around.

Moreover, Trump's salary is tiny compared to the amount he charges the government for services. When Trump flies to Mara Largess, he charges the Secret Service for lodging and food and his own suite on his own property.

Are you saying they don't get 'good meals' there? Guess I shall have check their Yelp rating. At the very least they know everyday they are going to getting a meal and that's more than some other people can say.

I worked in a military hospital for more than five years in my early years and since have been a patient several times for various problems. I have yet to see prime rib grilled for patients or for the employees, especially those prime grade A cuts.

Yes it will be a pleasure especially for the patients to partake of the meal meant for members of Congress.

Doubt you would see any prime rib being served in a soup kitchen either.
