Trump defends his choice to serve the Clemson football team '1000 hamberders'
You've probably seen the massive spread of fast food that President Donald Trump bought for the University of Clemson football team during their visit to the White House to celebrate their championship win.
You've probably also seen the wave of memes and jokes about the less-than-healthy smörgåsbord Trump laid out. Well, on Tuesday morning, Trump responded to criticism of his menu choice (of course) but with a very "covfefe" twist.

Yes, Trump bragged about feeding college students "1000 hamberders." Are hamberders a special meat sandwich only the president can order? Is this a secret McDonald's menu item even the internet doesn't know about?
Does Trump think that's actually how you spell hamburgers?
We don't know and probably never will but that didn't mean the internet didn't step up early on a Tuesday morning to try their best.

At least we can all breathe a sigh of relief that the Secret Service was able to keep the wily Hamberdlar from stealing all of the fast food before the Clemson players could eat it.
UPDATE: Jan. 15, 2019, 11:21 a.m. EST After being posted for nearly three hours, Trump deleted the original tweet and re-shared his message with the correct spelling of hamburger.
Great being with the National Champion Clemson Tigers last night at the White House. Because of the Shutdown I served them massive amounts of Fast Food (I paid), over 1000 hamburgers etc. Within one hour, it was all gone. Great guys and big eaters!
