Donald Trump Is Reminded Why He Doesn't Dine Out in D.C.
"President Donald Trump rarely eats at restaurants when he is in Washington, D.C. There are a few reasons for this, like that there's a chef at the White House whose job it is to feed him and Trump doesn't care to venture much beyond hamburgers and fried-fish sandwiches. On Tuesday night, his first night out in the city during his second term, he was reminded of another reason. The people of D.C. really don't like him."
"Trump went out for a rare D.C. dinner at Joe's Seafood, Prime Steak & Stone Crab, just down the block from the White House. The occasion was to prove that the city is now crime-free after he sent in federal agents and the National Guard to stop crime in D.C. - where they have been landscaping the National Mall and getting sandwiches thrown at them."
"It's nothing new for top Republicans to get lambasted at dinner in D.C., where Kamala Harris won over 294,000 votes to Trump's 21,076. Ted Cruz, a frequent target of restaurant heckling everywhere he goes, was laughed out of an Italian bistro in 2018. J.D. Vance, who is reaching Ted Cruz levels of getting chewed out in public, was heckled along with Pete Hegseth at a D.C. Shake Shack in August."
President Donald Trump rarely eats at restaurants in Washington, D.C. because a White House chef feeds him and he prefers simple fare like hamburgers and fried-fish sandwiches. He went to Joe's Seafood, Prime Steak & Stone Crab to showcase the city as crime-free after deploying federal agents and the National Guard. Guests at the restaurant shouted anti-Trump slogans including "Free D.C." and "Trump is the Hitler of our time." Top Republicans frequently face public heckling in D.C., where Democrats won decisively. Some Republicans created a private club called the Executive Branch, where tensions have also erupted.
