This 2,400-calorie meal is among the details in a forthcoming book by Trump’s former campaign manager Corey Lewandowski and aid David Bossie, as described in a preview by The Washington Post.

I would be quite surprised if Corey Lewandowski painted President Trump in any kind of bad light. Seems fishy...

Just pretending for a moment that what President Trump eats is a cause for national concern, didn’t fake president Obama often partake in junk food binges? I also remember reading that he smoked cigarettes (at the very least).

Filet-o-fish are pretty nasty though. Tons of tartar on a steamed bun, gooey food.

They used to have milk shakes. When I was younger, I’d have them. Unless I’m thinking of Burger King.

-—I am 70 years old -—

For the sake of good health think 90, or at least 85.

Let Clint Eastwood be a model. He produced a movie from his office of 30+ years on the studio lot when he was 86.

No. They deserve a comment: What desperate lunatic trash from LIB idiots who are verging-on or have-achieved subhuman loser status.

“I wonder how true this could be. That’s a LOT of food for one sitting, and Trump’s not THAT big.”

Might be for several people, or it could be just another fake news lie.

Either way, it’s a waste of time. If I couldn’t come up with a more substantial criticism, I would start worrying about the validity of my position.

McD's has chocolate shakes. Whether or not they milk shakes, I don't know. And, more importantly, I don't care. I just inhaled those things in one breath.

The Atlantic thinks of itself as so high-brow that they can't even conceive of referring to them as anything other than malteds. Bunch of elitists.

But Bill Clinton was 'cool', because he ate cheeseburgers every day, right?

All of this could be taken as simple evidence of Trump’s cultural vacuousness.

What the hell does that mean?

A man of the people who eats McDonalds food or an elite narcissist who dines on arugula & Wagyu beef ($100/serving) ......

Obama celebrates spending binge with cocktails and wagyu steak

BTW, the Big Mac & Filet-O-Fish are on the "Two fer" menu - you can get both for $5.00. Trump, the frugal businessman is taking advantage of a good 'special'.

I suspect he also smoked Reggie’s pole (at the very least).

You’d think that the libs that write this crap would be ecstatic because such a diet should finish him off soon. Their false concern is pathetic.

Yep, Obama ate dog... and the press didn’t give a damn (and didn’t report it) because Obama had a “D” by his name.

Not that the Atlantic crew is a bunch of biased narrow-minded bigots or anything...

“And the stupid sodium guidelines from the AHA are dangerously low.”

Dern right. Almost every night I am awakened by leg cramps that will not abate until I get up and lick some salt.

Yes, I used to like them - a spoon could stand up in them. Haven’t had one in 30 years, unfortunately.

As others have pointed out, Obama was a heavy smoker and ate all that high-falutin’, expensive food that would have gotten Trump condemned as an elitist bastard. And Billy Jeff’s bad taste in food was considered cute!

Did these pieces of useless crap ever feel disconcerted over bammy’s food choices? Did they comment on hussein’s cultural vacuousness?

Ramblin’ Hamblin must have a bad case of writer’s block to expel this McNothing Burger.

Go right to the menu on Google. Of course they serve chocolate malts. It comes right up.
