Trump hits back at New York Gov. Hochul after she rejects ‘Lake America’ name
Trump belittled the Democratic governor, claiming that Canada has been taking economic advantage of Hochul as well as New York state
Donald Trump has a well-known fondness for McDonald’s, often ordering Big Macs, Filet-O-Fish sandwiches, and a chocolate milkshake. However, when not indulging in fast food, he prefers steak cooked to perfection, as his butler once told him. No US President has shown such a strong affection for beef as Trump. Last week, this personal preference turned into a political issue.
After Trump lifted restrictions on imported beef, a debate ensued among ranchers, senators, and the White House over the price of ground beef. On the Chicago commodities exchange, cattle futures slipped for several consecutive days. However, in supermarkets, beef remained expensive. This leaves Trump in a difficult situation: at the checkout counter, consumers demand cheap beef, while ranchers believe it should remain pricey. Both voters who elected him and those expecting him to do the opposite have chosen him.
