Sanders brought his own breakfast to the White HOuse [View all]

Did he think they would poison him or something?

Bernie Sanders decided to bring his own breakfast to his Oval Office meeting with President Obama on Thursday.

The White House typically serves food and drinks to guests, but Sanders stopped at a Peet’s Coffee in downtown Washington to pick up coffee and a scone before heading over to the White House, according to reports.
