Former President Trump took a playful jab at Vice President Kamala Harris during a surprise shift at a Pennsylvania McDonald’s, mocking her disputed claims of having worked at the fast-food chain in college.
Former President Donald Trump nearly broke the internet on Sunday when he took over the drive-thru window at a Pennsylvania McDonald’s during a campaign stop. The event drew widespread attention and reignited a controversy surrounding Vice President Kamala Harris’ past claims of having worked at the fast-food chain during her college years.
Trump, entering the McDonald’s with his signature charisma, greeted employees and customers alike. "Hello everybody," he announced, before removing his jacket and putting on a black and yellow McDonald’s apron. When asked about his favorite menu item, he quipped, "I like it all. I like everything, but I do like the french fries."
The former president’s appearance wasn’t just about enjoying fries, though. It was a pointed jab at Harris, who has been criticized for allegedly fabricating details of her resume, specifically her claim that she worked at a McDonald’s during college. Trump wasted no time mocking her, recalling her supposed remarks about the tough conditions of the job. "I listen to Kamala," Trump said, mimicking her voice, "‘It was so hot. It was so hot, it was such a tough job,’" a direct swipe at her description of frying french fries.
The light-hearted yet sharp attack underscored the broader question of Harris’ credibility as some continue to question whether she actually worked at the fast-food chain. With McDonald’s issuing a statement earlier admitting it has no records of her employment, Trump’s McDonald’s shift was more than a publicity stunt—it was a clever way to remind voters of the ongoing controversy, while showcasing his own connection with everyday Americans.
