Former President Donald Trump traded campaign speeches for a fry station, flipping burgers and serving up some laughs at a Pennsylvania McDonald’s over the weekend. And in true Trump fashion, he delivered a side of jabs aimed directly at Vice President Kamala Harris.
With an apron tied over his suit and a smirk on his face, Trump joked, “I’ve now worked for 15 minutes more than Kamala at McDonald’s.” As you can imagine, that line got plenty of laughs from the crowd—and maybe a little salt in Kamala’s wound.
Trump, The Fry Cook?
Yes, you read that right. The former president didn’t just stroll through McDonald’s for a photo op—he actually manned the fryer! “It’s my first day at McDonald’s,” he announced upon arrival, shaking hands with the owner. “I’m looking for a job!” The crowd erupted, not just from his words, but from the sheer absurdity of seeing Trump, former Leader of the Free World, flipping fries in a red-and-yellow apron.
Thousands of supporters surrounded the Feasterville McDonald’s as Trump put on his best fast-food face. He handed orders through the drive-thru window while keeping the humor alive, telling one driver, “These fries are from Trump, okay? No fake news here!”
Trump claimed Harris lied about working at McDonald’s in the past, adding, “McDonald’s confirmed four times that she never worked here.” It was classic Trump—never missing an opportunity to land a punch, even if it’s through a drive-thru window.
“I’ve Always Wanted to Do This!”
Trump seemed to genuinely enjoy himself behind the counter, telling reporters, “I’ve really wanted to do this all my life. And now I’m doing it because she didn’t do it.” He was in high spirits, cracking jokes, shaking hands, and even managing to get into a debate about the merits of raising the minimum wage—right there in the middle of the McDonald’s kitchen.
“It’s amazing, really,” he said. “You get to meet people, serve up some fries, and talk about making America great again—all in one shift.”
The event was a mix of serious campaigning and light-hearted antics. Trump’s moment at McDonald’s wasn’t just about serving fries; it was about reminding supporters that he’s still the same brash, unapologetic character they’ve come to know. Whether you agree with him or not, you have to admit that Trump flipping fries is political theater at its finest.
Kamala, Take Notes
Trump’s jabs at Harris didn’t stop at the fryer. He wished her a happy birthday, with a grin that suggested anything but sincerity. “Maybe I’ll get her some fries. Or flowers. Or maybe McDonald’s will offer her a job.” For Trump, it was more than just a campaign stop—it was a comedic performance designed to highlight Harris’s perceived shortcomings in the most unconventional way possible.
The day wasn’t without its more serious notes. Trump talked to reporters about a range of topics, from his recent call with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to plans for tackling inflation and raising wages. But those serious moments were punctuated with jokes, quips, and a healthy dose of Trump’s trademark bravado.
“Trump’s America Will Be Better Than Brazil”
One standout moment came when a drive-thru customer, originally from Brazil, pleaded with Trump: “Please don’t let the U.S. become Brazil!” Trump’s response? “We’re gonna make it better than ever.” It was a surprisingly candid exchange—part of a series of moments that made the event feel less like a campaign stop and more like a fast-food comedy show.
The McDonald’s owner, Derek Giacomantonio, called the visit a testament to the opportunities provided by entry-level jobs, adding that it was an honor to have Trump flipping burgers in his restaurant. “It’s not just about burgers and fries,” he said. “It’s about a meaningful pathway to opportunity.”
Trump praised the McDonald’s crew and promised to make America even better than before, if elected. And, of course, he couldn’t resist one final jab at Harris: “Look how happy everybody is. They’re happy because they have hope, and they know Trump will bring the fries… and the freedom!”
Harris Campaign Fires Back
Kamala Harris’s camp wasted no time responding, accusing Trump of staging the event and exploiting working people. “Today, Donald Trump showed exactly what we would see in a second Trump term: exploiting working people for his own personal gain,” said Joseph Costello, Harris-Walz 2024 spokesperson. “Vice President Harris, on the other hand, has a record of standing up for workers.”
But, come on—how often do you get to see a former president actually working at McDonald’s? Staged or not, it’s a move that resonated with Trump’s base. The event managed to humanize Trump in a way that most political stunts can’t. It was absurd, it was funny, and it was pure Trump.
Final Thoughts
Whether you think this fry-cooking spectacle was a brilliant PR move or just another gimmick, one thing’s for sure: Trump knows how to entertain. His claim of working “15 minutes more than Kamala at McDonald’s” is likely to stick in the minds of voters, adding a bit of humor to an otherwise heated campaign.
Love him or hate him, you’ve got to give it to Trump—he sure knows how to keep things interesting.

As Trump volunteered his time and was not paid no social security was withheld. Seems Harris could just publish her social security withholding record that should show when and where she worked at a McDonalds if in fact she did work at a McDonalds?

DIALECTICS = THESIS (Republicans) & ANTITHESIS (Democrats) in order to produce the desired SYNTHESIS (anything but a godly, biblical government and society).
Anyone who promotes the biblically egregious Constitutional Republic, in turn, promotes its biblically seditious two-Party election system that provides both Parties their opportunity at the helm of the nation.
This, in turn, means you’re complicit in anything and everything biblically abominable enacted, past, present, and future, by those elected, regardless whether they’re a Donkey or an Elephant!
If you’re a subject of the King of kings, you’re commission is not to help perpetuate the kingdom of men but to do everything in your power to see such wicked humanist governments destroyed that one day we, or our posterity, can erect a righteous government and society based upon our King’s immutable/unchanging moral law, exclusively governed by biblically qualified men of God.
For more on how the Bible’s triune and integral moral law (the Ten Commandments and their respective statutes and judgments) apply and should be implemented as the law of the land, see free online book “Law & Kingdom: Their Relevance Under the New Covenant” at bible versus constitution dot org.

YOU are less godly than ANY politician, and prove it every time you post your ANTI-Christian screed.
Note: A secular government IS scriptural if you believe Jesus Christ.
I already know YOU don’t know squat about the Constitution, and not much about the Bible.
I know this because I have read more of your posts than you have.
The constitution was the greatest scriptural government document known to man. I doubt if it can be improved upon. It’s man who corrupted this document The founders said the republic will only work in a moral society. Man has always been and always will be broken.
