It would happen no matter what. The US President is basically a Roomba. When he runs into opposition he turns and starts devouring in another direction. Sooner or later he always circles back, though.

We're a long way from Wagamama, alas. Takeaway containers here are compostable lined cardboard and go in the green FOGO (food & garden organics) bin along with the food scraps.

Plastics on the bottom deck were often damaged by radiant heat from the exposed heating element at the bottom. Modern dishwashers like our 3-yo Bosch don't have the exposed element so I've been experimentally putting plastic at the bottom with no damage so far.

Around 1930 one of my great-grandfathers commissioned a genealogist who traced a line back to the Merovingians, so I'll go with them.
(Of course, when you do the maths, it's more of a distinction for a European *not* to be descended from the long-haired ones.)

Also on the bright side, politicians would say so little, and with such care, that no one would bother with rolling news.
