Another Democrat’s attempt to appeal to red-blooded Americans with their culinary skills backfired this week after users noticed what she was grilling.
On Thursday, Virginia Governor Abigail Spanberger posted a photo on her X page showing her helping cook what was supposed to be beef, with an apparent grillmaster looking on.
This appeared to be her first time ever operating a grill.
“Order up!” The Virginia governor wrote.
Order up! 🥩 pic.twitter.com/n69Rhrxt6V

When one takes a closer look at the meat, it should provoke disgust.
Notice how small, stringy, and odd-shaped it is. One could say it resembles roadkill, or even a rat.
Yuck.
Many social media users were grossed out, with some even commenting that the image was enough to make them go vegan.
What is this? 🤮 pic.twitter.com/W9MXhNBYnS

The hell is this?
I’ve had lettuce cut thicker than these steaks. Did you buy 1 steak and slice into 7 paper thing slivers to make it look like more meat?
Clearly this is the first time you have ever been near a grill.

Others compared Spanberger’s culinary skills to those of Chuck Schumer.
Recall that back in June 2024, Schumer managed to turn a simple Father’s Day grill into a roast—not of the burgers, but of himself.
The out-of-touch Senator, in an attempt to celebrate Father’s Day, shared a snapshot of himself placing cheese on a completely raw hamburger patty.
Where’s Chuck Schumer when you need a grillmaster?! 🤣
What is she grilling, raccoon?
