CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas — During a trip to Texas to visit first responders who worked with the Hurricane Harvey relief effort, first lady Melania Trump and second lady Karen Pence stopped at Whataburger to get their fast food fix, ABC News reports.
White House Communications Director Stephanie Grisham tweeted a picture of Trump and Pence at a Whataburger in Corpus Christi Wednesday afternoon.
The tweet read, “On our way out of town, @FLOTUS & @SecondLady decided to stop in to @Whataburger for some lunch! The American chain opened its 1st restaurant in Corpus Christi, TX in 1950!”
Reporters said the first and second lady also treated them to fries and paid the bill.
Y’all @FLOTUS @SecondLady bought me, @CallerElly and @Caller_Casey @Whataburger #melaniaInTX
According to KZTV, Trump and Pence also met with several families whose home was destroyed during the hurricane and made a stop at an elementary school in Aransas Pass.
“As we approach Christmas this holiday season, your family is an example of what it means to have hope and recognize your blessings,” Trump said during her visit. “You serve as a reminder to all of us that the best gifts are those of family and friends, love and kindness,” said Melania Trump.”

UH-OH!
They have discovered the PRESS’ Achilles Heel!
FREE FOOD!......................
To First Lady Melania's List.
What? No Wagu Beef, Arugula or Foie Gras? This is quite a refreshing departure from Melania’s flagrantly self-indulgent predecessor.

There is no such thing as “second lady”
Geez what dumbasses...
Whataburger makes a great hamburger!
If it were Hellary, she’d skip out on the bill as usual.
Moo wouldn’t have set foot in such a low place as a burger joint. It’s wago beef for her.
They’re both adorable and seem so normal.
I love Whataburger!
Gov. Abbott tweeted @Whataburger - "We love it! Hope they enjoyed it!" That's Gov. Abbott's wife, Ceclia between Karen and Melania
Best. First. Lady. Ever.
Love it!
Second Lady Karen Pence Unveils the Christmas Decorations at the Vice President’s Residence
Washington, DC—Second Lady Karen Pence continues the tradition of decorating the Vice President’s Residence for the Christmas season. This year’s theme is “Make the Season Bright” with metallic ornaments, stars, and candles throughout the residence. There are four Christmas trees on the main floor, donated by Hedlund Christmas Trees of Montesano, Washington. Thirty-six wreaths hang throughout the residence; nearly a mile of Christmas lights brighten the place; and 800 yards of ribbon adorn the Christmas trees. Approximately 40 staff and volunteers helped to decorate the residence. In the foyer, there is a fireplace with stockings hanging on the mantel for all of the members of the Pence family, including their pets. Throughout the month of December, the Pence family will welcome more than 2,000 guests into the Vice President’s Residence. The photos below provide a look at Christmas inside the Vice President’s Residence.
In the dining room, guests will see a beautifully decorated fireplace mantel and tree. The tree is known as the Grand National Reserve Tree.

You got that right!
It’s good these two ladies are friends and can make personal appearances together. Did Jackie and Lady Bird ever do this?
Don’t miss an opportunity to be snooty over here too.
Whataburger makes a great hamburger!
><
Yes, they do. I like Hatch green chili on mine.
Was Lady Bird called “second Lady” from 1961 to 1963?
Stuff the Fake News media with cholesterol so they all have coronaries and die. THAT’S BRILLIANT!
