To be fair, Donald Trump is going through a lot right now. The big guy is neck-deep in his infamous Manhattan Stormy Daniels Hush Money trial, where he faces a staggering 34 felony charges of falsifying business records with a jury decision expected basically any moment now. And, of course, if the Hush Money fiasco doesn’t land him behind bars, the other two massive criminal cases being spearheaded against him by Special Counsel Jack Smith and the US Department of Justice — including the January 6th/2020 elections crimes case and the notorious Mar-a-Lago stolen documents case — may just do it, considering he’s facing charges that include violations of the Espionage Act and literal insurrection.
And all of the above isn’t even bringing Fani Willis into play.
Frankly, it’s enough to make even the healthiest, cleanest of eaters turn to a pint of Ben & Jerry’s, ya know?
Suffice it to say, it seems the former president leaned quite heavily into his emotional eating habits today as he sat, for the second day in a row, anxiously awaiting a verdict from the jury in his infamous Hush Money trial.
Just earlier today, we reported on a photo that was spreading like wildfire across social media showing the former president in some sort of waiting area of the Manhattan courthouse, surrounded by Lays potato chips, MilkDuds and Whoppers candies, and a trusty bottle of Diet Coke.

But it seems like the snack foods just weren’t enough to satiate the big guy, as another photo cropped up and quickly gone viral that shows multiple bags of McDonald’s being lugged into the courthouse.
The photo was posted to X (formerly known as Twitter) by reporter Tyler McBrien, who wrote in the caption of the image, “SPOTTED: several men saddled with bags of McDonalds headed into the courtroom.”

The comments were just as hilarious as we expected:
C’mon cheeseburgers, do your magic and block some arteries.

The court is going to be quite stinky this afternoon (along with the heat). Does the court provide gas’s masks? pic.twitter.com/QERBTsa3k0

Gotta make the big baby happy!
Happy Meals to the rescue. 😆— Sarah (@onehumanfamily2) May 28, 2024
Nothing like the joy of cold big macs, limp fries & watery diet coke day after day in your criminal trial. No worry, there’s over-done steak & ketchup for dinner!

Even The Lincoln Project, a famously anti-Trump Republican group, threw their two cents in with this gem:

I don’t know about you, but I’m glad I don’t have to smell that courtroom this afternoon.
***Trump has since been found guilty on all 34 felony charges in the Manhattan Hush Money case by a jury of his peers***
