He’s making All American great again.

Former President Donald Trump rang up a $200 fast-food tab while on Long Island Thursday after paying respects to slain NYPD officer Jonathan Diller at Massapequa Funeral Home.

While headed to his private jet “en route back to Florida,” Trump and his campaign staff traveled westbound on Merrick Road from the funeral home’s South Chapel location to the popular All American Drive-In, Trump’s senior adviser, Daniel Scavino Jr., posted on Facebook.

Richard Vultaggio, a manager at All American, revealed to The Post the sizable order that Trump and his entourage requested:


    18 “double double” cheeseburgers
    10 hot dogs
    Two quarter-pounder hamburgers with cheese
    20 fries
    10 onion rings

All American of Massapequa is locally renowned for its high quality and cost-friendly burgers, french fries, hot dogs and shakes. Stephen Yang

Trump’s team also requested substantial ketchup and mustard on the side, and the drive-in staff compiled the order within 10 minutes around 2 p.m. Thursday, according to Vultaggio.

While Trump has a penchant for dine-and-dash promises, the meal was paid for by credit card, including a “generous” cash tip, Vultaggio told The Post.

He added that All American “did receive news [that Trump] did love” the meal.

Why is this "news"? Who cares what Trumps staff ordered? Would it be 'news' if the order was for vegan pizzas?
American news is just silly.
