The President’s love for McDonald’s is well-documented, and he even made a campaign stop behind the fry station during the 2024 race.

News of the fast-food order quickly went viral on X, including some malicious comments about his health.

‘Damn! New reports suggest Trump could destroy McDonald’s fries, Quarter Pounder, Big Mac and Filet-O-Fish in one sitting. Combine that with 12 Diet Cokes a day and zero exercise… Someone please explain how this cholesterol-soaked meat sack is still alive,” wrote Canada Hates Trump.

Speaking to the Journal, Trump said it wasn’t an MRI but “less than that.” “This was a sweep.”
