Donald Trump accused Kamala Harris of lying about working at McDonald's - a claim that has sparked endless speculation.
***
'She also said, "I worked at McDonald's.'' Turned out she didn't work at McDonalds," the former president mentioned to the audience.
'Did anyone see that?' he continued. 'After an exhaustive study that took about 20 minutes, they found out she never worked there.
In April, Harris appeared on The Drew Barrymore Show, where she was asked if she worked at the fast food restaurant.
'I did. Yes, I did work at McDonald's,' the vice president said. 'When I was at school...I did fries. And then I did the cashier.'
Harris is supposed to have worked at a franchise in the California Bay Area during the summer after her freshman year of college at Howard University.
However, she did not mention this biographical detail until she ran for president five years ago. ***
From the outset, some were skeptical of the claim, observing that Harris had never previously mentioned it on the campaign trail or in the two memoirs she had authored.
***
According to the freebeacon, in her book The Truths We Hold, published in 2019, she makes no mention of her stint at the Golden Arches despite the fact that she includes a passage about the jobs she held in college. Likewise, two biographies about Harris fail to make reference to employment at McDonald's.
***
On the job application for a law clerk position in the Alameda County district attorney's office, the vice president, who was in law school at the time, provided a list of previous jobs.
Despite being asked to include every position she had worked in the last ten years, Harris did not mention McDonald's, which has fed further speculation that the claim is dubious.

“What can be in my professed history is unburdened by what has been.”
Harris: “Would you like lies with that?”
Super-size those lies.
Ha hah. Trump did that before the debate so that it can be brought up. Now she will have to provide some proof. He knows there isn’t any.
Why would a person lie about something like that? Bizarre woman.
When it comes to embellishing her past, she learned from the best: Joe Biden. I’m sure we will soon find out she was there at Biden’s side when he confronted Corn Pop.
From the only president who ever had the charisma of JFK and DJT: “Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected and handed on for them, to do the same or one day, we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children’s children, what it was once like in the United States, when men were free. “Ronald Reagan
She also marched in SELMA.
She would have gotten a W-2.
The IRS records for that era would be computerized.
One phone call to the Commissioner of the IRS and the W-2 information will get provided.
The Social Security Administration would have her FICA tax information.
Many people keep copies of their tax returns for decades.
Loved that guy. He was right, but too many didn’t listen to the wisdom of it and take it seriously.
While this is fun to put her on the defensive, how many of us can provide proof of where we worked 40 or 50 years ago?
My first job was with a supermarket chain which no longer exists. I don’t have pay stubs or my income tax returns from so long ago. My managers there are certainly dead by now. I worked with a bunch of other part time workers, of whom I can remember the names of just 1 or 2.
If I had to provide documentation, the only documentation available would be Social Security earnings records. The wages from that job are on my social security statement.
Can Kamala get such records released publicly, if she is in a position like me, where she has no documentation that she worked somewhere decades ago?
Some people seem to lie reflexively, given a prompt. I’ve noted it with users/ abusers of white dope. Barrymore provided her with the fast food prompt.
Right after she fought Cornpop.
That is one way to avoid those pesky $100,000 student loans.
I have no sympathy for student debtors that didn't walk a mile in Kamala’s shoes.
I know very little about Harris background because, well I never thought she would be in a position for the top job.
I know she lived in Canada for a time, said she was born in Oakland, but that wasn’t true.
I wonder what years she lived in Canada?
“If I had to provide documentation, the only documentation available would be Social Security earnings records.”
That would be enough. I don’t think she would have a problem getting the records unless she refused to ask for them.
Kamala didn’t get paid for her work, but apparently did sex acts with the fries and cashier, while at McDonalds.
I won’t argue her, on that one.
I don’t mind this issue at all but I wish that he would make stronger statements about her outright lies that he is going to cut social security and raise taxes on the middle class.
daughter of two (non-USA citizen) accomplished parents, always so far as can tell lived in upscale neighborhoods including her formative years in Canada
there’s no sign of any poverty or deprivation in her life
and when she “hooked up” with that infamously-corrupt California political boss, we understand that he showered her (so to speak) with plenty of nice gifts, too
again, daughter of privilege, not need or want and definitely as fake as her supposed black American identity
in short, another package of lies like obama (or whatever his real name may have been), and like him Ineligible too. Its long past due that we started demanding that our US Consitition be honored and that political candidates start telling the truth for a change.
