What with tensions continuing to simmer at high pitch over North Korea. With allegations of sexual impropriety alleged against a Republican Senate candidate, and a Democratic Senator, with trade talks going on on several fronts, and with Trump's ratings still in the tank, you wouldn't think a pie would cause such controversy.
Not just any pie, either. This one:
Which White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders claims, even though she admits she's not a great cook, she baked last week. A chocolate pecan pie, nonetheless. She tweeted a photo of it, with the plain white background, and that's lead to questions about her culinary expertise.. In fact, there are some who say she didn't bake it at all, and if she did, they want to see said pie in a more natural surrounding. Her kitchen counter, for example.
Truth to tell, it does look somewhat suspicious. Like it came out of a cookbook or something. And while fighting over a fucking chocolate pecan pie seems trivial, some are saying (out loud, and by a Republican) that it also speaks to the credibility of an administration and a president who have faced repeated questions about truthfulness.
Slow news day down in the States? Maybe this is what The Donald means when he yaks on and on about 'fake news'.
Tell you what, though. Put some ice cream or whipped cream on it, and let me delve into it. I'll judge whether the pie is fake or not.
'Nuff said
