Trump orders McDonald’s directly to the Oval Office door in awkward stunt

Donald Trump ordered a McDonald's meal directly to the Oval Office as his administration promoted their “no tax on tips” policy.

The president had his “favorites” delivered via the online food ordering service DoorDash, before answering questions from journalists about the Iran war alongside the employee on Monday (13 April).

Sharon Simmons, a "Dasher" from Arkansas, was asked whether she voted for Trump, to which she responded, "Maybe", and then refused to be drawn into commenting on trans athletes by the president.
