President Donald Trump has been caught in a strange grift that involves his Secret Service, his golf course, and his epic love of hot dogs, according to a new report.
Trump likes to play the part of the generous host to his Secret Service at the Trump National Golf Club outside Washington, D.C., where a snack shack beside the 11th tee box sells hot dogs Trump "loves," Forbes reported Monday.
“He has this weird, very odd pride about how good the hot dogs are,” a former club employee told Forbes. “The chef has to be out there. And he’s like, ‘Chef, get everyone a hot dog—all these guys.”
Forbes described Trump's love of the hot dogs on an epic scale.
"On Trump’s personal scale of human achievement," Forbes wrote, "[the wieners] probably rank somewhere between mankind’s first glimpse of gold in a riverbed and the construction of Trump Tower."
There's just one problem with Trump's "gift" to his security team, as Forbes senior editor Dan Alexander revealed to his followers on X: Trump doesn't pay for the dogs.
"Trump is obsessed with the hot dogs at one of his golf courses," Alexander wrote. "So obsessed that he orders one for everyone around him, including his Secret Service detail. Then, according to a former employee, the club bills the Secret Service for the hot dogs."
