Three weeks after Donald Trump tweeted a picture of himself eating KFC aboard his million-dollar plane, his running mate Mike Pence followed in the billionaire businessman's footsteps.

Pence tweeted a photo Monday night of him and his mother, Nancy, aboard Trump's private jet with a table full of fried chicken, biscuits and fixings.


The Republican nominee has been criticized in the past for sharing his meal choices on social media. On Cinco de Mayo, Trump posted a picture of a taco salad he was eating on behalf of the Latino holiday. Some chided the businessman for not eating an authentic Mexican meal and being out of touch with Hispanics.
