It’s the juxtaposition of White House opulence and the staple diet of our nation’s poorest that makes the image so jarring to look at. That food cost a good bit of money which could have been spent on... literally anything else less embarrassing.
Piles of 27 x $4 sandwiches. Those salads are $5-6. Basically, every pile cost over $100. How much food can you get for $1000 with catering?
The terrible thing is, it’s a nice gesture particularly since the man paid for it himself. Just seems like everything he touches turns to lead, which would explain a few things about him.
