Wow! Burger King made fun of Trump. (Who does Burger King think eats at Burger King?)


In case you don't get the reference, Trump recently tweeted "Because of the Shutdown I served them massive amounts of Fast Food (I paid), over 1000 hamberders etc" (reported in "Trump’s ‘Hamberders’ Tweet Becomes Fodder for Late-Night Laughs" (NYT)).

ADDED: Maybe Burger King's tweet is affectionate. I shouldn't accept the George Conway spin.

Due to a stupid Tweet, they may not be serving as many hamburgers as usual.

mccullough said...

This is gentle humor. Trump is making fast food great again and Burger King appreciates that. Along with the free publicity of having college football players eat your burgers.

They would have to pay Lebron $50 million in Jew money every year for King James to eat at Burger King.

Kevin said...

Which was more embarrassing yesterday, Trump's misspelling of hamburger, or CNN running a list of 18 perfectly-spelled reasons Trump *may* be a Russian agent?

1200 hamburgers to go

Orthography is for spinsters.

Mike said...

I see this as more poking fun than making fun. There's no crazy insult here. Of course, Conway sees it as such because he thinks Trump is evil and everyone hates him.

tim in vermont said...

I don’t see this as anything other than good natured ribbing. McRibbing? No, that would be McDonalds.

Char Char Binks, Esq. said...

I go to Burger King every morning for hamberders and covfeve.

J/k. BK is disgusting.

tim maguire said...

If Burger King is poking gentle fun, it's a high risk move for no good reason. Either way, how dumb does Conway have to be to think it makes any statement at all about Trump's competence that Burger King may have made fun of one of his tweets?

PuertoRicoSpaceport.com said...

Is there no Chik-Fil-A in DC?

I really think that would have been the way to go, just for entertainment value.

Conway has hated Trump longer and harder than any other resister in DC. Kellyann has to endure it. Very interesting situation.

That's a good point.

Clark said...

I took it as good natured. Trump himself joined in on the covfefe thing. However, I agree with Tim Maguire. High risk, low reward.

Fernandinande said...

That's easy: 1 hamburger = 3.33 hamberders.

roesch/voltaire said...

That's okay Michael Strahan invited Clemson for Lobster to make up the misspelling and cheap meal Trump offered. Now that's class.

rhhardin said...

Trump would have known about the Imus 1200 hamburgers bit and probably emulated it.

"...there's a guy here.."

Bill Peschel said...

That's a gentle poke, even in a world where "cock-holster" is acceptable public discourse.

That deserved a "lighten up Francis" tag.

Here's what I find amusing. I like Trump. I love what he's been doing.

I also don't listen to Trump. I don't watch the news; I read it.

So if you're basing your judgment by appearances, I can understand why you hate Trump.

But if you're watching the economy, watching him take on Iran, watching him pull out of Syria and Afghanistan, watching him pull out of the International Postal Union that was having U.S. taxpayers bankroll cheap shipping from China, watching job participation rise among blacks and Hispanics, you'd think he was the greatest president of the last 30 years.

Mark said...

Steph Curry's wife also invited them for a restaurant meal too.

So strange that Trump has a hotel with banquet facilities and a first class kitchen just down the street ... and yet fast food is what he serves these young men on a once in a lifetime trip.

mccullough said...

Under NCAA rules, the players can’t acceot free meals from Stratham or Curry’s wife. They obviously want to get these guys suspended to help out the weaker programs.

Static Ping said...

There is nothing mean about Burger King's tweet. I think it is amusing. Conway is a partisan so he sees what he wants to see.

mccullough said...

Conway is humorless. Typical GOP douchebag

The hack press is mean.

The Burger King tweet is light and funny.

mccullough said...

Mueller is expanding his investigation to include whether Trump’s twitter mis-spellings are the way he communicates with his Russian handlers. George Conway will join the Mueller team.

rehajm said...

Twitter: a short burst of inconsequential information,' and 'chirps from birds'.

Life is better when you act like you know this.

Also: You should never accept George Conway spin.

Mr. Majestyk said...

Is the George/Kellyanne marriage real? With stupidity like this, how can it be? I don't get it.

stlcdr said...

Looks funny to me! And I think trump would laugh at it, too!

These people just don’t get it. I think they are taking the ‘thats Not funny!’ Thing too far.

stlcdr said...

And the recaptcha had a McDonald’s store front...

Psota said...

Conway is really pitiful.

He is disrespecting his wife every time he engages in these "dunk-on-Trump" moments.

I don't believe in "toxic masculinity" but I do know when a man is making an ass of himself at his wife's expense.

Nonapod said...

BK should come up with a new sandwich called the "Hamberder". Not sure what it should be composed of though.

Hamberders go a mile high!

Too bad Trump didn't misspell it hamborders.

bagoh20 said...

Conway needs to leave the bubble once in a while.

Ralph L said...

Trump couldn't very well buy Taco Bell's "Run for the Border" hamberders.

Skeptical Voter said...

Well now that Burger King has joined the social justice league, I'll go a block further down the road and hit Carls Jr. or McDonalds. Actually none of that stuff is good for me, but I prefer my burgers not come with a side of snotty snark.

elkh1 said...

For those who suggest nice hotels next door that anyone who can pay can go to, or lobster dinners for the players as if they've never had lobsters before. Clemson is a private college. The players' parents probably make much more than you do.

On the other hand, one has to be a champion to be invited to the White House. For the players who are on restricted diets, hamburgers and pizzas are their dream come true.

Btw, not everybody likes lobsters, some people are allergic to shell fish.

stevew said...

George Conway is so easily trolled by Trump with his misspellings. It happens so often I have to believe Trump does this stuff on purpose.

Burger King's post is their attempt to get into the conversation and get some free advertising.

stevew said...

"So strange that Trump has a hotel with banquet facilities and a first class kitchen just down the street ... and yet fast food is what he serves these young men on a once in a lifetime trip."

If he used his hotel and banquet facilities he likely would have triggered the likes of George Conway to dust off the "Emoluments Clause" accusation.

tim in vermont said...

See how the Democrats have become the party of blue noses?

Ralph L said...

Yes, it comes from Clemson football. They pay negative tuition.

Fast food in the White House made a better memory for the team than lobster because of the contrast.

Quaestor said...

Who the fuck is George Conway? Ensign Parker's even dumber younger brother?

...

"I own this hotel so, quick, do my bidding and ignore your normal daily business" is ... bad management?

By all reports, the young men were perfectly happy with the food, so is there any cause for complaint other than Orange Man Bad?

(Heck, he IS kinda bad. Just ... realistically bad, and not uniformly or uniquely bad?)

Tomcc said...

RV- Mr. Strahan's offer (as I understand it) is for lobster AND caviar. Does that make it more or less "class"?

Yancey Ward said...

I swear to God, if Trump tweeted that Conway should chew off his own leg, he might well do it and claim Trump was trying to kill him.

Leland said...

I agree with Clay Travis; Trump's mistake was not serving Chick Fil A. But I don't think the Burger King's tweet is a big deal.

tcrosse said...

"So strange that Trump has a hotel with banquet facilities and a first class kitchen just down the street ... and yet fast food is what he serves these young men on a once in a lifetime trip."

Some of these guys have been there before, and some of them will be there again.

I love cows - they are affectionate animals - so I wouldn't find any hamburger tweet from Burger King to be "affectionate."

JaimeRoberto said...

If Obama had served burgers to the NCAA champion during the shutdown the press would be lauding his ability to connect with the youth and his personal generosity.

gadfly said...

Just as he failed to give money to veterans that he raised at a rally in Iowa in 2016, he is just as likely to be lying about having paid for the hamberders. If he had said that his re-election campaign paid for the burgers and fries that might be believable - but the "Royal I"?? - No Way Jose (please excuse the immigrant talk). He simply appears incapable of distinguishing between truth and deceit.

But I am unsure if anyone enjoys eating cold burgers slopped with goop and overcooked and skinny veggie-oil fries. Lard is the only answer, Mickey D.

tim in vermont said...

Under Obama, whoever wrote that tweet at Burger King would be sitting next to a certain rodeo clown in a re-education camp somewhere.

I really think Michael Strahan missed the mark. If he'd offered steak and lobster, that would've been ideal. But caviar? Such a cliche. Anyone remember the Tom Hanks character in Big?

Trumpit said...

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all cows are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

Milk and cheese from bovine slave labor is a violation of those basic animal rights. Schlump's 300 hamburgers came from murdered cows. Don't ever forget it. That's a good reason to impeach him. Executing him for a capital crime is wishful thinking in the current political climate.

Of course, one has to be very moo-tivated to do that....

Reminds me of the hospital CEO we had around here who explained his new dress code policy by saying he didn't want his employees to look like they shopped at Wal-Mart. Guess what? Most of his employees and the patients who go to his hospital, shop at Wal-Mart. He's no longer the CEO.

Burger King knows that while many Trump voters eat Burger Kind, not as many Trump voters are Twitter-obsessed.

Big Mike said...

The tweet may have been meant in a good-natured way, but now is not the time (c.f. Inky the stinky).

In the end I agree with Bill Peschell:

“But if you're watching the economy, watching him take on Iran, watching him pull out of Syria and Afghanistan, watching him pull out of the International Postal Union that was having U.S. taxpayers bankroll cheap shipping from China, watching job participation rise among blacks and Hispanics, you'd think he was the greatest president of the last 30 years.”

No. What's strange is how drooling imbeciles like you think this is some sort of black mark on Trump.

This is precisely why I don't listen to you leftists when there might be some legitimate criticism. Because you go off on stupid shit like this. For two days now.

I think Conway tweet just missed the mark. He might have tweeted, "Think of how much of a livestock the president is to have *Burger King* make fun of him. Sad."

Even that emendation is off the mark. Because Schlump is a not "livestock." He's a failed jackass! Sad.

Clemson is not only a state school, it was originally a male only military cow college, like Texas A & M.

The players would be sanctioned by the NCAA., and Strahan should know that. Back when he was an undergraduate at Stanford Tiger Woods had dinner with Arnold Palmer and Arnie picked up the check. The NCAA promptly declared Woods to be ineligible.

traditionalguy said...

Clemson is an Engineering school, like local Georgia Tech. Tech and Clemson have been long time football rivals 120 miles apart on I-85 north and offering the same curriculum and seeking the same students and recruits. Both schools are a draw for EU Industries that have been moving some auto plants into northwestern South Carolina, such as BMW and Volvo.

You can crusade against bestiality if you want to. I won't object. I'm far more concerned with the murder of animals for fun, fur & profit. Youtube is filled with endless so-called hunting videos that are in reality sadistic, vile, animal snuff films. I'm shocked by their popularity, and legality. I lose hope when I see so many evil people enjoying blood, guts and the violent deaths of innocent animals. I believe those sick mf's deserve the same treatment that they enjoying watching so much.

Clemson receiver Hunter Renfrow on the fast food buffet and the visit to the White House.

I can pretty much guarantee you most of these guys have never had lobster and would probably not have touched caviar. Fast food was the right call and they loved it. Trump is not the one out of touch, he knew exactly what he was doing. It’s all the critics who are off-base. And from most of the critical comments I have read on various left-wing publications and FB pages you can tell the critics are not college football fans and don’t know much about the guys who play the game.

And Clemson is a public school but blue collar and rural in a way that Georgia Tech is not. The schools have had a long and intense rivalry. I have been to more GT/Clemson games in person over the past 50 years that any other two teams.

Was that so difficult?

BudBrown said...

Reminds me of a story old guy lived next door told about 40 years ago. He was wounded in Korea and a wounded enlisted from each branch was invited for tea with Bess Truman at the WH. So there they are with all dressed up servers and silver trays and fine china and small talk with the first lady and after a while the President walks in and looks around and says he bet you boys would like a beer. So then a suited up servers comes in carrying a big silver tray w loaded with several cans of Pabst beer. Thing I wonder is if I recall the right beer. Would the Missouri senator serve Pabst beer?

mockturtle said...

Never have eaten at BK because, back in high school there were some nasty rumors about things the staff did with the product. Probably totally unfounded but the image stuck in my mind. If I want a good burger--and sometimes I do--I want a four-napkin burger, not some dried out replica of a burger.

MountainMan said...

BudBrown said... "Would the Missouri senator serve Pabst beer?"

No. St. Louis was the home of Anheuser-Busch and Budweiser. Pabst was from Milwaukee.

Reminds me of Iron Man. Tony Stark's first meal upon returning to the United States is a Burger King Cheeseburger. The reason is 3-fold.

1. Tony says he wants an 'American cheeseburger'
2. Burger King no doubt had promotional tie-ins to the Iron Man movie that summer
3. When Robert Downey, Jr. had his epiphany about who he was and who he wanted to be -- when he was at his lowest point and decided to make a change -- it was in a Burger King on Pacific Coast Highway.

1) The logistics of getting the president out of the WH and down the street are horrendous. Proabably made a lot worse by the shutdown. The optics would certainly be worse.

2) If you were a player would you rather have burgers in the Oval with the president or a better meal down the street in a hotel? How many hotel meals have they had? How many chances will they ever get to eat in the WH, even if it were just peanuts and potato chips?

We would have gotten the outrage and most people would be wondering why.

OMG! Trump isnt getting us out of obamas Syria conflict fast enough.

This is literally just weeks after Trump declared he wanted the US out of Syria ASAP and was immediately labeled a traitor and a Putin stooge by the left for doing so.

Literally.

Just weeks ago.

With the lefties, history begins anew each day and all recollections of previous dem/lefty claims is itself deplorable and racist....likely criminal too...

So which it WintersTale? Trump should or should not rapidly withdraw troops from Syria?

Dont worry, like Inga you have no answer.

Like you say, how many hotel meals have the clemson folk had? not as many as trump, but probably Still enough to be able to enjoy KNOWING that the President isn't just eating with you, he's eating what he likes.


off topic: supposedly, the night before his inauguration, W Bush was being housed in some vip guest house that the government has.
They asked him want he wanted for dinner, and he said; oh, just a hamburger, thanx;
and (supposedly) they told him "this is the fancy VIP house, our chef does NOT make 'hamburgers!'
and (supposedly) W told them; "he does Now!"

Yes, because the Syrian intervention didn’t start when Obama was POTUS, and when Hillary was SoS, no, it happened the day Trump was inaugurated! Up until that day, history is just a foggy feel good mist where Obama played chess in the ME like a grand master. Ordering drone hits, sending in weapons.

How stupid do you have to be to buy that line? Is it like being high all the time?

Instead he serves up a pile of Burger King. Imagine that, the President comes to our level. The kids can loosen up and act like themselves and have actual Fun. It’s almost as if this President gets people.

The amazing part is some idiots think he should have served a big formal meal and they think Trump’s the dumb one.

of course it's very silly specially considering the way the post behaved toward Obama, and burgers, it's almost as if they are entirely situational, crazy that.

We are now likely just days away from the left blaming Trump for Benghazi and the horrific Libya outcome from the moronic obama/clinton/LLR policies.

Time will tell.

Obama got them into Syria. Trump got them killed. What are ya gonna do, right?

I like BK hamburgers but I order them without anything except the buns/sauce. And hold the Mayo.

And yes, compared to a REAL Hamburger, its very mediocre.

Fish and Chips fast-food is better. Used to go to a place called "Skippers"

Conway was in line to be named head of the Civil Division of Trump's DOJ before he fell out with the administration. I would have been working for him. Odd to think about now.

In the largest nearby town in our neck of the woods, there's a Burger King and a McDonald's directly across from each other at the freeway exit. The lines at McDonalds (newly remodeled to add additional drive through lanes) go to the road. There is no line at Burger King's single lane. Consistently. I'd say BK has already lost in this market!

Remember how much libtards reveled in Bushs verbal mistakes? They would have done it even more if Twitter had been around.

Fuck you right back. You voted for Trump and STILL stand by him? You're a world-class moron.

If it does prove to be Islamic state there will be a strong reprisal, there has been stepped up activity just in the last two weeks.

Looks like LLR Chuck's replacement is on board!

So, to summarize the lefties newest gambit: Trump got us into Syria and refuses to get us out...so killer!!!...except Trump wants get us out of Syria....which is what Putin wants anyway so...Traitor!!....but sorta not because we arent out...killer!!!...but Trump wants us out so TRAITOR...except we arent out.....killer!!!......

This is what is politely referred to as enlightened thought...

Progressives have to make up their mind, is it to weak because of the projected pullout or two strong because of the protracted campaign

Trump's misspellings are intentional and are a form of code.

This was the argument Friedman sold in Lebanon, because we shelled the chouf which was a druze stronghold in 1984, Hezbollah attacked us in 1983. This was before back to the future.

Winters Tale@9:03 okay, pal. I'll not support our favorite president if you can cite a single metric by which the United States of America is not doing better than when racist idiot Obama was running the show.

Somewhere along the line liberals just turned into Frank Grimes of the Simpsons. Angry, joyless and bitter that Homer/Trump is flourishing while everything in their life is so hard. Pissing and shitting on everything Trump says and does yet he keeps coming out on top. Why aren't we 50 points ahead?!?!? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=egouKh2eErk

Winters Tale would have wvoted for Stalin, if given the chance, and still supports his policies. You have absolutely no validity to question anything.

"Is was the incompetent narcissus that got us into Syria."

"Trump gets our servicemen killed and wounded. So now you want to talk about Obama. Boy, couldn't see THAT coming."

Which is your way of admitting that your argument can't stand on it's own merits and is, in fact, felacious. Pitiful try though.

I doubt if it ever occurred to r/v and the rest that just maybe the president polled the players and their coaches and asked them what they'd like to eat. No?

If only he polled the military experts and his generals and asked "How can I get us the fuck out of Syria?"

But he doesn't need experts. He just needs his gut - to get people killed.

"Winters Tale would have wvoted for Stalin, if given the chance, and still supports his policies"

Tell yourself whatever you have to to insulate yourself from the truth about Trump.

WintersTale said...

"Winters Tale@9:03 okay, pal. I'll not support our favorite president if you..."

If you are still supporting Trump you will never ever never not support Trump. You cultists are like Taylor Swift in reverse, "I am never never never breaking up with you."

Todays Leftist: "If only he polled the military experts and his generals and asked "How can I get us the fuck out of Syria?"'

LOL

Thats precisely what Trump had been doing for a year, after having run an 18 month campaign for the Presidency emphasizing he was going to do just that.

It was the military brass leftovers who refused to come up with a plan to do that.

The lefties arent even trying anymore now that the lefty/LLR dossier lies have collapsed.

To paraphrase Salenz Ziot, there are two types of people in the world when it comes to Trupm:

1. People who take him literally, but not seriously.
2. People who take him seriously, but not literally.

Conway is one of the former.
