A coach said it and "the players loved it", how is that a slam against the coaches and players? That coach is obviously a polite and gracious man. His team won and they went to the WH as a part of those celebrations. If he had complained about it...it would have taken something away from those players. The coach did the right thing to be gracious and say nice things about his host and not to ruin the experience for his players (no matter if he likes or dislikes the host or if the food was great or bad) However that does not alter the fact that this was a cheap and tacky thing for Trump to do. Having the coach be polite about it afterwards doesn't change that You can bet your last dollar that Trump would not have done the same in his situation. If he's been served what he considered awful food, he would have tweeted and let everyone know about it. Clearly that coach is a far better man than Trump can ever hope to be.

Not to mention that trump did it with a political agenda. It wasn’t about the players. It was to create the illusion that “look what the Dems caused because the WH was In Shutdown” I had to personally do this. He is NEVER about others it’s ALWAYS about him and his poisonous agenda.

Oh yeah. It was all about the photo op. If it hadn't been publicized there would have been better food.

So how does that make what he said a slam?

Actually is was a slam at the players and coaches of Clemson University. I get that it is an honor to be invited to the White House, even with trump as president to some it is still an honor. I get that food had to be brought in. But fast food really? There any number of restaurants, including the one in his hotel, that trump could have reached out to and put out a better spread then a bunch of cold hamburgers. trump picked the cheapest way of providing food for his guests since the self proclaimed billionaire was paying for it. It has more to do with good manners and etiquette then politics. And he failed, as did his wife for letting him do it. A coach said it and "the players loved it", how is that a slam against the coaches and players? I can’t be any clearer ... ”trump picked the cheapest way of providing food for his guests since the self proclaimed billionaire was paying for it. It has more to do with good manners and etiquette then politics. And he failed, as did his wife for letting him do it.”

I thought you meant what I quoted the coach saying was a slam to the players and other coaches, so thanks for being clearer.
