Yelp disables reviews of Pennsylvania McDonald’s where Trump cooked fries after flurry of 1-star reviews
NY Post ^ | 10/23/2024 | Ariel Zilber

Yelp temporarily disabled the reviews for the McDonald’s franchise in Pennsylvania where former President Donald Trump manned the french fry cooker and drive-thru window on Sunday after the app was flooded with negative comments by his political opponents.

Supporters of the former president wrote rave reviews. One of them commented: “The best McDonalds I’ve ever been to in 47 years. The older employee was extremely nice. Make McDonalds Great Again! Bring back the Dollar Menu!”

But others flooded the page with one-star reviews and comments unrelated to the restaurant’s food or service.

“The fries were too salty as if someone who lost a major election had been crying over them for an hour,” one reviewer wrote in a post on Monday.

Another reviewer wrote: “The person who was at the drive through vaguely resembled someone who I saw on the news for being a convicted felon.”

“Customer service was a joke. Senile old man got bronzer on my fries, didn’t wear gloves. Repeated himself several times, something about Ronald McDonald in the showers at the golf club?” wrote another Yelp visitor.

A visit to the page yields a pop-up window titled “unusual activity alert.”

“This business recently received increased public attention, which often means people come to this page to post their views on the news,” the alert reads.

“While we don’t take a stand one way or the other when it comes to this incident, we’ve temporarily disabled the posting of content to this page as we work to investigate whether the content you see here reflects actual consumer experiences rather than the recent events.”

"while we work to investigate whether the content you see here reflects actual consumer experiences rather than the recent events.”

Good Lord...how long does it take to "investigate" these comments to see if they "were actual consumer experiences"?

“The fries were too salty as if someone who lost a major election had been crying over them for an hour”

“The person who was at the drive through vaguely resembled someone who I saw on the news for being a convicted felon.”

“Customer service was a joke. Senile old man got bronzer on my fries, didn’t wear gloves. Repeated himself several times, something about Ronald McDonald in the showers at the golf club?”


I have to admit, those comments are funny.

Republicans have been known to submit low ratings for businesses they wanted to ding (the Red Hen restaurant comes to mind). A business takes on the risks when they list their business on a site where they cannot disable comments and/or ratings. The unfortunate nature of anonymous Internet individuals and companies.

Yeah, a bunch of whining, name-calling brats. In return, local Republicans should quietly make this the franchise’s best month ever.

Yelp could do a lot of good by letting the comments stand for posterity on the dangers of TDS..

Yeah, like anybody reads Yelp to scope out a McDonald’s before eating there.

Like anybody reads Yelp at all.

“I have to admit, those comments are funny”

Of course they’re funny

Keep them up there. Who cares?

They have no power

Trump doesn’t care. He has the picture in his mind of multitudes of happy people waiting and then chatting with him.

No Trump hater had the patience to wait on that line then chat with him honestly about whatever lies they have in their mind

Yelp is like the better Business bureau. You can pay them to make bad things go away.

These are the same machine democrats who chorus for how ‘smart as a tack Biden was’ and how everyone loves Harris (outside of the Willy Brown’s)

Pain ‘rent a crowd’ types.
