Yup. Football or Soccer, to a blind Muslim it's all the same.
But I still was more insulted over the passing out of the rolls of
paper towels to hurricane victims.
By the way, when my nephew played for Humboldt State, we drove down to
take in several games, and helped whip up food binges after the games.
Cathy would take the crisper drawer out of the refrigerator and fill
it with salad. The boys would line up and clean out the kitchen while
us older folks had to arm wrestle them for a few morsels. I have
sweet memories of eating whole roasted chickens, thick New York
steaks, ribs, and platters of cakes and pastries. Yikes! No wonder I
got up to 265 pounds.

Subject: [blind-democracy] Re: Trump hosts a fastfood party for NFL teens at
the whitehouse
A good morning to you, Mostafa.
Fast Foods are an outgrowth of Capitalism. There is no food value in most
fast foods, and more likely there is harm to our bodies. But Capitalists
are not interested in providing you and me with well balanced diets. Profit
is the bottom line. More disgusting than a Fast Food Pig Out, was Donald
Trump handing out paper towels to the Puerto Rico hurricane victims. Donald
Trump boasts that he will return America to her former greatness. Such
behavior is exactly the behavior of the American Oligarchs in the "Golden
Days" back in the
1880's until the 1929 Crash. I recall reading accounts of John D.
Rockefeller riding down the streets in New York City, throwing handfuls of
dimes to the crowds of poor people. People such as Rockefeller were held up
to generations of young Americans as role models.
Please do yourself a favor and read Howard Zinn's magnificent work, "A
People's History of the United States." This will provide you with a richer
insight into the "Real America". There is an old saying, "Don't judge a
book by its cover". We might paraphrase that by saying, "Don't judge a
nation's People by its Ruling Class."

At the mid of government shutdown crisis, Donald Trump made a huge
fastfood feast for an American soccer team at the whitehouse. He
brought them an unbelievable amount of burgers and pizza. This is not
the proper diet for alleged athletes though. This vividly reflects
American lifestyle. Whether you're into athletic affiliation, you're
affected with fastfood culture if you live in America and even beyond.
Unfortunately, we have here in Egypt famous fastfood chains. I won't
name some of them to avoid the thought of advertising. However,
they're so famous and widely known. Donald Trump couldn't sit with
political officials to resolve the partial government impasse crisis.
Nevertheless, he sat with soccer teens and ate fastfood with them.
Despite the fact that he's the major cause of government impasse that
is reaching its twenty fifth consecutive day at the moment, he was
able to pay for this vast fastfood feast that was served at the
whitehouse last evening. Of course, due to the lack of governmental
financial purvey, he paid for this incredible dinner with his own
cash. I'd be interested to know, how much did he pay? What about those
of his government who now live without wages? Thus, they have got
unpaid bills as of rent, electricity and other major resources. Will
he pay for these? This animalistic figure is incomparably the insanest
chief who entered oval office. Is the US capitol the damnable house of
his father to invite his friends for dinner therein? Why didn't he
take them to any of his affluent buildings that are in New York or
somewhere else? This wasn't a formal meeting to be held at the
whitehouse. If he's able to buy such a fancy dinner for his people,
soccer teens or whatever, why wouldn't he at least pay federal workers
their suspended wages or even part of it to sustain and pay the bills?
This president is viciously roguish. I'm intemperately incensed at
this unprecedentedly breaching misconduct and selfish act. As he's
inadequate to reach a reasonable consensus with political rivals to
reopen the government, he egocentrically had fastfood feast with NFL
teens. Islam calls this unlawful exorbitance. Seriously, this guy who
now resides at the whitehouse is absolutely a humanitarian disaster
and a terrible breach of moral tenets. Consequently, anyone who
concurs with what he does, has necessarily to be labeled with these
negative characteristics. This selfish guy has to legally be resigned.
He doesn't fit the whitehouse, He's worth to run a fastfood place.
That's his maximum qualification.
