Trump's Luncheon with GOP Senators: "Buffet will open early at noon"

https://www.rawstory.com/2020/05/trump-plan-to-dine-with-gop-senators-sparks-hilarious-responses-to-memo-announcing-buffet-will-open-early/

President Donald Trump is heading to Capitol Hill for a luncheon with Republican Senators. While it’s not listed on his official calendar, reporters found one element of the unscheduled get together even more surprising: lunch will feature a buffet.

Jack Sherman
The notice that went out to Senate Republican offices about the lunch with Trump notes that the “buffet will open early at noon.”


In terms of coronovirus spread probably the only thing worse than eat in dining is a buffet.
Note: This is not the Onion.
