The recent non-troversy now known as Lobstergate is a fake outrage, ginned up by the usual Trump haters in our liberal media and embraced by various Democrats and late night propagandists.
What this entire, stupid affair has exposed is that our liberal elites are even more out of touch with the American people than previously known.
If any of these idiots had a family member or friend serving in our armed forces, they would know that feeding the troops seafood and steak is a common occurrence that has happened under presidents from both parties for years.
These idiots on the left tried to create a scandal out of thin air and all it showed is their stunning ignorance.
Here’s an image of former First Lady Michelle Obama serving steak to the troops. What a scandal!
Here’s Michelle Obama serving ribeyes to troops as part of a surf and turf meal that has been military tradition since WWII, but mainstream press has suddenly decided is a “gotcha” for some reason. https://t.co/g5EE6qOQYS pic.twitter.com/YGZpUPBfnx

Paul Begala of CNN made a total jackass out of himself on the air by showing that he knows nothing about any of this. It was a perfect example of what this is all about. Liberals outraged about something that they know absolutely nothing about.
The Editorial Board of the New York Post wrote today:
‘Lobstergate’ again exposes the ignorant bias of TV’s ‘best and brightest’
Late-night “comedians” Jimmy Kimmel, Stephen Colbert and Seth Myers, along with Paul Begala and other CNN blowhards, went big for a pseudo-story Wednesday, raging about Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and other Pentagon bigs supposedly eating high on the hog.
Oops: “Lobstergate” only proved that not one of the on-air geniuses, nor any of their writers or producers, knows a thing about military life.
All the smug fury was based on a news item — from noted military-journalism site TMZ! — about the Defense Department spending $22 million on lobster and ribeye steak in a single month.
If they’d bothered to check the (transparently idiotic!) assumption that all the eats were for the top brass, they’d have learned that a “surf & turf” fete is a longstanding military tradition, a treat for troops headed to a deployment or stuck on an extended tour, with all the gastrointestinal joy that a diet of MREs can deliver.
The people pushing this fake outrage are so ignorant that they don’t even realize that they are the ones who look bad here.
They don’t know it’s a tradition because they don’t know anyone who serves in our military. They are completely out of touch with ordinary Americans.
