I’m seeing this as another way that 45 is changing the discussion about him from “OMG 37 indictments” to “OMG he didn’t pay for food.” Yes, this is terrible behavior, but it in no way is similar to what he is facing trial over, but the media is now talking about how he is not paying for food, and there is less coverage of the indictments.
This is something he does all the time - bury a huge scandal with a minor scandal. It keeps his name in the headlines, and his supporters can brush this one off while it overshadows the much more dangerous issue.
