I know some of the damage has been internally, through totally incompetent management and policies, such as getting rid of the beef-tallow and cottonseed oil used to cook the fries in, and introducing tons of menu items that has the original McDonald brothers AND Ray Kroc rolling in their graves (If you haven't seen The Founder, see it - excellent movie and Michael Keaton nails Kroc's character).
But just the last couple of weeks, there's been a sexual harassment suit against them, the stupid Fight for $15 movement, fights over chicken McNuggets, and now this.
McDonald's needs to do one simple thing: Just go back to the basics, Sell burgers, fries, milkshakes, and apple pies again. Get rid of two-thirds of the menu items and get rid of that Obama flunky who couldn't hold a press conference if his life depended on it.
anyone else notice that McDonald’s is being utterly destroyed?

I don’t know if “destroyed” is a word I’d use. I bought their stock at around $90 and it’s now over $160. Their all day breakfast is doing well for them. And I’ve noticed a distinct uptick in their emplyees’ courtesy—this across several stores in several states. Almost as if they’ve been watching Chick-Fil-A. Also kiosks are making an appearance in some stores.
Their stock is booming. Try again
