There’s a detail I keep coming back to from Donald Trump’s recent fundraising dinner with oil executives, during which he reportedly asked them for $1 billion in campaign donations in exchange for repealing all of the Biden administration’s climate policies.
Surrounded by opulence, wearing fancy suits and discussing a Thanos-level mass extinction plan, the oil executives were eating… chopped steak.
Chopped steak is literally just breadcrumb-less meatloaf. It is, as I understand it, a shaped mound of ground sirloin usually topped with brown gravy. I don’t mean to knock the dish in general; I’m sure it can be good. I just feel like, if I were proposing a literal billion dollar “deal” in exchange for my aid in destroying a livable climate for all future generations, I’d at least serve an aged rib eye or something.
He probably had to promise a free steak dinner to at least get them out there, but his finances are in such a bad situation that he went with the cheapest thing that wasn’t a complete lie.
Nah it was hamburgers served without buns and labeled as “steak” because lies mean nothing to Trump, and chiseling people is his standard grift. If his other supporters found out they’d call it “smart”

No, you’re right, it was probably canned steak. I was thinking opulence, forgetting we’re dealing with Trump.
It probably was aged rib eye, just served as chopped steak. Probably some super high end wagu shit. And ketchup on the side.
