McDonald's' in a tweet on its corporate account called President Trump "a disgusting excuse of a President" on Thursday morning.
The tweet, which was briefly pinned to the top of the account before being deleted, mocked Trump and called for the return of former President Obama.
"@realDonaldTrump You are actually a disgusting excuse of a President and we would love to have @BarackObama back, also you have tiny hands," the tweet read.

Bttt.
5.56mm
And the wording was infantile.
no more so than in some of the opening posts on this thread...
Why would you accuse FReepers of “virtue signalling”?
Some of us may actually BE virtuous, and apparently some of us may actually be trolls attempting to stop speech they disagree with by labeling it....
Robert Gibbs is the communications director at McDonald’s. I hit Twitter this morning raising hell about it; I found the twitter account to the group of McD franchisees in my area of the state and told them I would be letting everyone know about how they have lost my business for their behavior. Consider I live in TN so I expect it is registering with them since 65% of people here support Trump. They way you get back at them is thru their franchisees bc the Corp HQ listens to their concerns.
Twice I have stated he was right, there was NO APOLOGY.
Go pound sand, if stating twice, I was wrong is not good enough for you.
True. So goes the Internet.
But then, your anger seems to bubble over this rouge tweet.
we might say Mickey D was caught without its makeup...
"We gut a Mac fuh dat!"
Feel me? LOL!
Hacked my a$$! The stench of OBuggery and Gibbs is all over this!!
Sound like the work of The Hamburglar.
Is that just a campaign photo-op or did he really eat it?
Yeah but they hired former OBotulism Press Secretary Robert Gibbs as an executive! This move looks like something that this arrogant jerk would do.
Yeah I believe this was likely an inside job. The Left has been so unhinged they think everyone except the lowliest of life forms agree with them. McDonald’s needs to handle this better than they have so far.
The link does not exist. Deal with it.
I cannot provide a link to something that does not exist.
I told him he was right, and you’re not satisfied.
The suits at McDonalds are terrified of alienating minororities (as evidenced by all of their commercials in the last decade or so).
They’re about to discover that alienating everyone else has a much bigger effect on the bottom line.
I personally rarely have anything other than their coffee anymore.
I wasn’t a anti-Mcds neither.
More times than not i would eat at one of their joints and get the craps.
Different chains make no difference.
I have given them many more chances than they deserved.
This morning was the last time i eat their food.
Even now i have to use the can.
Yeah, I can’t imagine any CEO thinking that this, in any way, benefits shareholders - to whom they are accountable.
I think this has to be a hack. If, due to some strange mental episode, was in fact done by the corp leadership deliberately it’s just suicide.
They certainly can’t let this go if it’s a hack, they need to respond immediately.
