Republican presidential nominee former President Donald Trump’s campaign stop at a McDonald’s in suburban Philadelphia on Sunday has sparked bemusement and bewilderment from onlookers. But the Golden Arches photo op was far from random: it represents the culmination of a yearslong fascination Trump has had with the fast food chain.

I think that picture says it all.

Trump acknowledges hard working employees in so called as by the democrats "menial" jobs.

The only corollary would be Kamala, working behind a Gucci store counter.

Hmmmmmm! Don’t think Trump’s failed opponent and “worked” should be in the same sentence. 😊👍

If I ate what they claim he orders I’d be fat as a hog.

[Larry Lucido]

I love their fries. A little too much.

[Tell It Right]

Would have been funny if Warren Buffet came through at got his daily McDonald’s meal from Trump.

After working a full shift at mcdonald's, fearless Donald Trump then
went four quarters for the Steelers, soundly defeating the new york
Jets.

It will be interesting to hear of a sudden surge in sales at McDonald’s. The Filet O’ Fish is the best fish sandwich ever.

I haven't eaten at a fast food restaurant in years. I might have to try McDonalds now and let them know why.

I'll bet they are "Loving It".

McFlashback: President Trump McDonald's commercials from 2002: "Together Grimace, we could own this town!"

Awwwwww! I loved that one...

"The only corollary would be Kamala, working behind a Gucci store counter at a low-end brothel.

Fixed it for you! ;)

McD’s needs to make a fry holder in the shape of Trump’s head with the fires being the hair.

Some have called the pics historic-——something out of Norman Rockwell.

Morgan Spurlock who made the weird documentary Super Size Me died recently at the age of 53.

Time. Very biased article. Seems to want to make out like Trump is the liar and Kamala’s claim for working at McDonald’s is not to be doubted.

McDonald’s has come out and said they did not keep records of employees before the 80s so there is no record but I don’t think Kamala every has cited a location or a time she worked there. She seems not to even be trying to refute the claim she did not.

Not so fast. Kamala Harris has been widely known as a "working girl" for decades.

The Filet O’ Fish is the best fish sandwich ever.

Have you tried Culver's Cod sandwich? Also, if you have a Captain D's, they are an exceptional value in fast food fish. There's one of those in Shelbyville, TN.

If she actually worked making fries at McDonalds, even 40 years ago, then you could probably extract oil from her skin and GC it and see if it had McD lipids in it...

Reminds me of Steve Martin's gag on someone going to McDonalds and you could smell it on them days after.

[equaviator]

Maybe they'll get a new sandwich out of it: The McDonald.

[MayflowerMadam]

That’s so cute!

[MayflowerMadam]

It probably wasn’t considered because PDJT loves McDs anyhow, but isn’t it also a favorite fast food of blacks?
