Trump Can't Find A Chef To Work For His White House

Trump Can't Find A Chef To Work For His White House
Is it because chefs are an anti-fascist demographic, or because Trump has the palate of a six-year-old?

Is it because chefs are an anti-fascist demographic, or because Trump has the palate of a six-year-old?

The following are Trump’s dining tendencies previous chefs who have worked for him have alleged:

When world leaders dine with Trump, he reaches across the table and eats off their plates, which he calls a “power move” to assert dominance.
Every night Trump eats three servings of the dinner’s dessert, and tells the table, “I’m never like this, I can’t believe how bad I’m being tonight.”
Trump forbids his chefs to ever serve him any form of sausage because of how often people compare little sausage links to his fingers.
Trump tells his waiters every single meal, “Don’t worry, I’m going to treat you right on the tip,” and then stiffs them......
Trump often comments to dinner guests that global warming can’t be real because ice cream still exists.
Trump is adamant that Obama “had to have” eaten more fried chicken than him, despite vigorous disagreement from every White House staff member.
The only part of a turkey Trump eats is the breasts. He and Stephen Miller have had several dinner discussions on what they think human breasts taste like. Miller described the taste with such vivid detail and creepy confidence that Markowitz believes he has actually eaten human meat before.
Trump goes through a 20-oz ketchup bottle weekly.
Trump changes into stretchy pants before every meal because he says buttons are “rigged against him.”

Reaching across the table to eat off others' plates as a 'power move,' though, I completely bought that one.

(Oh man, just imagine if he reads the article and starts doing all those things out of childish spite. I can buy that too.)
