It’s not just clearing the people, I remember hearing somewhere about the steps that are taken to clear the food that gets eaten at the White House. From what I recall, the shopping is always done unannounced and in plain clothes, so to speak. I think the idea is that you can’t poison the president if you don’t know where he’s getting his next meal from.

I think you’re missing the word “adult”. Babies have a superpower in their ass, I’m reasonably sure. But at least most of them respond well to talc and a clean diaper, unlike some dude who’s got the same skin tone as the mascot of the [1982 World Cup](https://www.google.com/search?q=Naranjito&rlz=1C1GCEA_enFR818FR819&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwj_jfvht_LfAhXGEVAKHbOeCnwQ_AUIDigB&cshid=1547646416238523&biw=1440&bih=758).

Not to mention, Trump could just hang back and make sure none of the Clemson players keel over before taking a bite himself.

I’m sure thump got two Big Macs while each player only got one. And if it turns out that the players got two (if they wanted them), then DJT no doubt took three. But I’m okay with that. I’d like him to have Big Macs three times a day. Or more.

Saw this on Doonsbury’s daily comic site:

> “We saw $1.75 for gasoline today, coming in. I’m riding in this incredible car, **and I’m driving** , and I’m looking at gas stations to see how much is the gas. How many other Presidents – you think Hillary Clinton would have done that? I don’t think so. I’m in the Beast – the world’s most expensive car…and I’m looking at gas stations. **I say, ‘Fellas, slow up. I can’t see.’** They say, ‘$1.75.’…That didn’t happen by accident, folks…Very little happens by accident.”  
> – Trump to American Farm Bureau Federation Convention

(emphasis mine)

All I can see now is Cheeto in the back in one of those kid seats with the fake steering wheel.
