Calling bullshit on the McTrump fast food story.

Two Big Macs. Two Felatio Fish. A malted milk shake -- never, ever seen a malted milk shake at Mickey D's, but that's beside the point.

That menu is a least double the 2,600 calories stated. That's a shitload of food and a shitload of calories.

Some toady has to fetch them for him

One Big Mac - 540 calories x 2 = 1,080 calories
One Filet O Fish - 410 calories x 2 = 820 calories
One McCafe chocolate shake - 530 calories

So with that math - 1,080 + 820 + 530 = 2,430 calories

So yes this claim is accurate.

I thought a single Big Mac was about a thousand calories, and a Fillatio Fish at least 6-700.
