It’s been a hectic week between budget talks, President Donald Trump’s trip to Capitol Hill and Republican senators taking shots at their president.

Then imagine Trump having to fend for himself in a buffet line in front of a roomful of senators, one of whom the president had engaged in a war of words with that morning.

Senate caucus lunches like the one Trump attended Tuesday are sometimes buffet-style and there aren’t a lot of staffers in the room, so there’s not much “pampering,” as Sen. Ben Sasse, R-Neb., put it.

“I think nobody really thought of the awkwardness of nobody having planned to get a plate of food for the president,” Sasse said on “The Remnant Podcast with Jonah Goldberg.”

“All the rest of us were there before the president was there just to show respect for when he arrived. And when he got there, [he] was shown to his seat at kind of the head table, there was no food and someone had to elbow him and say, ‘There’s the buffet line over there.’”
