President Trump doesn’t just eschew the White House’s gourmet kitchen for McDonald’s because he prefers fast food — he’s also paranoid about being poisoned, according to a new book.

“[Trump] had a longtime fear of being poisoned, one reason why he liked to eat at McDonald’s — nobody knew he was coming and the food was safely premade,” writes Michael Wolff in “Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House,” out Jan. 9.

The notoriously germaphobic president also forbids White House staff from touching his belongings — especially his toothbrush — and from changing his bedding until he’s stripped the sheets himself, according to the tome.

Housekeepers once picked up his shirt from the floor of his private bedroom — Melania has her own — and he blew his top, Wolff writes.

“If my shirt is on the floor, it’s because I want it on the floor,” Trump berated the staff.

Trump’s Mickey D’s order is “two Big Macs, two Filet-O-Fish, and a chocolate malted,” former aides Corey Lewandowski and David Bossie wrote in their own recent book.
