Trump served an assortment of pizza, hamburgers, and fries to the Clemson Tigers. He commented, “I think we’re going to serve McDonald’s, Wendy’s and Burger King with some pizza. I really mean it. It would be interesting. And I would think that’s their favorite food.”

Trump also noted that the fast food was due to the ongoing government shut down over border wall funding. However, two months later, he presented a similar feast to a North Dakota team.

Trump has long had an affinity for fast food, which he has explained is because of its cleanliness.
