Then they come to forums like this one to obsess over it.

After all, they're the ones who elect celebrities to high office.

Better a celebrity than the criminal he was running against.

Exactly. Why would someone eat D.C. hotel sushi when they have the resources to eat in sushi bars all over the world?

It's as dumb as eating a taco bowl at Trump Grill instead of taking the opportunity to enjoy the food at an authentic Mexican restaurant.

HAHA!! And how do you know what I have accomplished?

Yes I suppose being a drug addict is something to be proud of these days. Like a badge of honor!
Takes a lot of effort to stick that needle in one's arm!

So one wealthy, pompous jackass doesn't like another wealthy, pompous jackass, won't eat at his restaurant, and I'm supposed to care?
