From well done steaks to taco bowls, some of the most bizarre moments in the political career of President Donald Trump have centered around food.

You can add another moment to that list.


Former White House physician Ronny Jackson confessed to the New York Times that he regretted not fully implementing an improved diet and fitness regimen for the President.

Jackson said:

"The exercise stuff never took off as much as I wanted it to. But we were working on his diet. We were making the ice cream less accessible, we were putting cauliflower into the mashed potatoes."

Some of Trump's favorite foods include pizza, KFC, meatloaf, cherry-vanilla ice cream, chocolate cake, and McDonald's. He's been known to serve a smorgasbord of fast food at White House receptions for college athletes.

Some thought Jackson's methods demonstrated the President's infantilism.







The 73-year-old Trump has sparked concerns in the past regarding his health.

Late last year, he was unexpectedly taken to Walter Reed Medical Center and stayed out of the public eye immediately after, leading some to believe the President had suffered an emergency.

The White House insisted that this was just part one of the President's annual physical, despite the White House medical facility having all the necessary equipment to conduct a physical without a visit to Walter Reed.

Curiouser and curiouser.

Gavin Newsom Rips Pete Hegseth For Suggesting Press Is Only Reporting On U.S. Casualties To Make Trump Look Bad

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth was criticized by California Governor Gavin Newsom after Hegseth accused the press of only reporting on the negative effects of President Donald Trump's attacks on Iran.

Trump has said that the U.S. military was "knocking the crap out of Iran" but the "big wave" of attacks is still yet to come, and has not ruled out putting boots on the ground, saying the war is progressing "way ahead of schedule." Trump has urged Iranians to revolt, even as the regime reshuffles leadership following the death of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and some of his associates.

Elmo Just Asked His Followers 'Where Have You Been?'—And Zohran Mamdani Had The Purest Response

Elmo, the furry red childlike monster from Sesame Street designed by Caroly Wilcox, began his life as a generic "baby monster" background filler in the 1979-1980 season of the long-running children's television program.

Originally having a gruff voice supplied by various puppeteers, Elmo found his falsetto-voiced, loving persona when Kevin Clash took over in 1985. Elmo was transformed into a three-and-a-half-year-old character designed to connect with the show's audience of preschoolers.
