Trump caught eating fried chicken with a fork and knife!

What a weird thing to bother about, unless you own stock in the spork manufacture, I suppose.

I always eat fried chicken with a knife and fork--well, except when I'm at home, because at home I use two sticks to eat everything, including fried chicken--but at buffet places I use a knife and a fork.  At KFC I have tried to use the spork, but they tend to break easily.  His mysophobia might tempt him to use the sterile, plastic-wrapped, one-use, white, polymer spork, but the rigidity and low tensile strength of the spork makes it undesirable.  It makes more sense to use metal flatware if available.

Why people feel the need to share such mundane aspects of their lives on Twitter or facebook or pinterest, on the other hand, is an entirely different matter.  I think it is more evidence of his narcissism, and of the fact that this campaign is just one big (and highly successful) publicity stunt.

Looks like he's trying to reach out to Colonel Sanders voters.

Especially those who set their 12-piece Bucket'o'chicken on top of the Wall Street Journal as they enjoy their fast food on their private jets.

I don't know about how they serve KFC chicken in The South, but here on the west coast, the breast piece of chicken has the bone surrounding the meat with it.

Yes, Proud Moderate, chickens are indeed vertebrates, every where in the world. 

No, it is not necessary to eat vertebrate meat with your fingers.  (Unless you're stuck in a time warp and find yourself eating among the inhabitants of Europe circa 30000 BC.)

There are many, many things to make fun of in this picture.  The fact that The Donald happens to choose a proper fork over the white plastic spork (or his fingers) is not the most salient of them.
