Trump Makes Stop At McDonalds
President Donald Trump delivered on his promise this past Sunday, trolling Kamala Harris by working at a McDonald’s in Feasterville-Trevose, Pennsylvania. Harris has often claimed she “did fries” during her younger years, though no evidence has surfaced to back up her statement, leaving even outlets like Snopes stumped. Trump, always a fan of theater, seized the moment to take a jab at his political rival by jumping behind the counter and running the fryer in front of a crowd of cheering supporters.

Bucks County, where the McDonald’s is located, is a key swing area in Pennsylvania, and Trump’s visit drew an enormous crowd, with police closing off streets to accommodate the influx of people eager to see him in action. Supporters lined up blocks away, waving flags and capturing the moment on their phones, while the media kept pace with their predictable spin. The Associated Press ran a headline accusing Trump of offering “no evidence” to back up his claim that Harris didn’t work at McDonald’s, which had people scratching their heads. Since when is the burden of proof on Trump for something Harris claims?

But if the media wanted evidence, Trump delivered it in the form of classic fries, cooked, bagged, and handed out to drive-thru customers. When asked what his favorite McDonald’s order was, Trump playfully dodged specifics but admitted to having a soft spot for the fries, which set the stage for his impromptu shift. Donning the McDonald’s uniform, he was quickly at work on the fryer, expertly filling containers and sending orders through the drive-thru. At one point, he complimented a family picking up their order, quipping that he’d pay for it since he made it himself. The crowd outside, watching through windows and waiting on updates, was loving it.

With a smirk, Trump couldn’t resist another dig at Harris, claiming he’d already worked “15 minutes longer than Kamala.” And that’s Trump in a nutshell—able to turn even a fast-food shift into a political spectacle, all while keeping his supporters entertained and fired up. It was a bit of good-natured trolling that resonated with the crowd, many of whom see him as someone who doesn’t take himself too seriously, in contrast to the often stiff performances from his opponents.

After wrapping up his McDonald’s shift, Trump headed to Lancaster for a town hall before attending the Pittsburgh Steelers’ home game later in the day. In true Trump fashion, the whole affair was a mix of humor, political commentary, and showmanship—a stark contrast to the awkwardness that typically surrounds Harris. You can almost picture her fuming somewhere, her aides likely bracing for impact as she processes Trump’s latest jab.
