The US former president stopped at the iconic fast food restaurant during a recent campaign trip
US Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump donned an apron and worked the fry station at a McDonald’s during a campaign stop in Pennsylvania on Sunday.
The former president handed customers food through the drive-thru window at a restaurant in Feasterville-Trevose and answered questions from reporters.
“These people work hard. They’re great,” Trump said of fast food industry workers. “I just saw something… a process that’s beautiful.”
He also took the opportunity to mock his Democratic rival, Vice President Kamala Harris, who has said during her campaign that she once worked at McDonald’s when she was in college.
“I’ve now worked for 15 minutes more than Kamala,” Trump told reporters, repeating his claim that Harris “never worked at McDonald’s.”

Trump is working a shift at McDonalds right now, for no reason other than to troll Kamala for lying.
That’s it. 😂

Harris spokesperson Ian Sams dismissed Trump’s words as a “lie.” The Republican candidate “can’t understand what it’s like to have a summer job because he was handed millions on a silver platter, only to blow it,” he told NBC News.
A well-known fan of the restaurant, Trump has been photographed enjoying meals from McDonald’s aboard Air Force One. In 2019, he ordered more than 300 hamburgers at the White House when hosting that year’s college football championship team, the Clemson Tigers.
