Trump Cooks Fries at McDonald’s: Donald Trump visited a McDonald’s in Feasterville-Trevose, Pennsylvania, as part of his presidential campaign. During his visit, he suited up, worked behind the counter, and cooked fries. He also interacted with the McDonald’s staff and served customers at the drive-through.
Trump used this opportunity to take a jab at his Democratic opponent, Vice President Kamala Harris, saying, “I’ve worked 15 minutes more than Kamala” at the fast-food chain. This was in response to Harris’s campaign narrative, where she has spoken about her time working at McDonald’s during her college years.
Trump, the Republican presidential candidate, has frequently questioned Harris’s claim of having worked at McDonald’s. His visit to the Pennsylvania McDonald’s was part of a broader effort to challenge Harris’s portrayal of her middle-class background.
During the visit, Trump remarked, “Look at the crowd here. They’re so happy because they have hope. They need hope,” referring to the enthusiastic reception he received.
Both candidates have been actively campaigning in Pennsylvania as Election Day on November 5, 2024, approaches. With only two weeks left, Trump and Harris have ramped up their efforts in key states, recognizing the importance of Pennsylvania in securing victory. Both campaigns are pouring significant resources into the state as they fight for a tight race in the upcoming election.
