Trump made a stop at a McDonald’s in Pennsylvania over the weekend for a PR stunt that angered the left.

The former president took on new roles as he worked the drive thru and the fry station at the McDonald’s restaurant. Thousands of Trump supporters surrounded the restaurant as he spent the afternoon working in the kitchen.

This stunt came in response to Democrat candidate Kamala Harris saying that she used to worked at McDonald’s when she was on Drew Barrymore’s podcast in April. In an attempt to show that she can relate to normal Americans, Kamala claimed that she worked at the iconic fast-food establishment for a summer in college. Trump accused Harris of lying.

“I’ve now worked for 15 minutes more than Kamala at McDonald’s,” Trump said through the drive-thru window as he handed out orders.

“I’ve really wanted to do this all my life. And now I’m going to do it because she didn’t do it,” Trump continued.

Customers were thrilled to be served by the former president and expressed their excitement and support for his campaign.

Trump smiled and continued to cook fries and hand out orders to customers while praising the manager and promising to make America better if he was elected president again.

“Look how happy everybody is. They’re happy because they want hope. They need hope and that’s what we’re doing is going to give much more than hope you’re going to make. We’re going to take hope and make it back,” Trump said.

In an internal statement to the McDonald’s system from the US Senior Leadership Team regarding Trump’s visit, the origins of the event and the company’s response were outlined. It also included an invitation extended to the Harris/Walz campaign for a future event.
