Ally of Donald Trump reveals his 'grotesque' McDonald's order and it might disgust you
A close ally of President Donald Trump has just revealed what can only be described as a bizarre McDonald’s order that the POTUS is partial too, and honestly, it might make your stomach turn.
During a recent appearance on a local government podcast, Joe Gruters - a longtime Trump supporter - lifted the lid on a late-night fast food habit that’s hard to unhear.
Gruters, who chairs the Republican National Committee in Florida, explained that Trump’s go-to meal from the Golden Arches was nothing short of 'unique'.
When asked by hosts to share one of the funniest moments from life on the campaign trail, he didn’t hesitate.

“The amount, and what the president eats,” he began.
“He had hot fries waiting for him from McDonald’s,” Gruters said. “Then he had a filet-o-fish, a quarter pounder, and a big mac, and I think he combined two of them.”
Yes, you read that right, the 79-year-old apparently squashes two burgers together to create his own fast food Frankenstein.
While Gruters didn’t confirm which burgers were fused to make the beast, let's be honest, we're all secretly praying he leaves the filet-o-fish untouched, as just the image alone is enough to make a dietitian weep.
Even more surprising, Gruters claimed the president ditched his usual Diet Coke for an orange fizzy drink, and while you'd imagine that would be Fanta, McDonald’s also offers Hi-C Orange Lavaburst, so which one lured him away from his usual tipple remains a mystery.
Gruters admitted the calorie overload left him in shock, as he added: “I’m thinking to myself, how does the guy that’s as senior as him get away with eating all this McDonald’s on a consistent basis?”
Before noting how he felt 'sick as a dog' after eating just two burgers himself.
According to McDonald’s own nutritional info, Trump’s reported order clocks in at roughly 2,372 calories - already smashing the daily recommended limit for men his age.
"Uh, but yeah, he loves McDonald’s brand. McDonald’s should be paying that guy," Gruters joked. "No kidding."
Almost exactly a year ago, Trump traded in rally crying for burger flipping, as he visited a McDonald's branch during his presidential campaign.
The Republican could be seen handing out orders and cooking food in posts shared on TikTok, but some viewers weren't convinced by the performance.
On Trump's website, it stated that the he 'cooked food, bagged fries [and] worked the drive-through', though ABC News reported that the restaurant itself was closed to the public while he was visiting.
Then of course, there was the now-famous McDonald's meal Trump indulged in while in a private jet alongside his former 'first buddy' Elon Musk, his health secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr, as well as his eldest son Donald Trump Jr, back in November.
So, Gruters kind of has a point. Ronald, if you're reading this, maybe make a plush toy for the POTUS to slide into happy meals in return.
