Don Jr then boasted: “I think my father knows the McDonald’s menu much better than Kamala Harris ever did.”
Yeah I'm sure he does, you fucking dumbass
Like that’s some kind of flex
He also knows way more about cheating on wives, wanting to fuck his daughter, getting millions of people killed, bankrupting a casino, being impeached, losing the popular vote twice in a row, and being convicted of felonies than Kamala or even most Americans. Y'all should brag about that, too.
It's such a weird thing to brag about.
The MAGoos were trying to manufacture a scandal; they found one of Harris's old resumes and tried to imply that she was ashamed of her roots. Supposedly, she should have put in her time at McDonalds on a professional resume. If that sounds like a weird overreach, it's because it is a weird overreach
They should have learned their lesson when they tried attacking AOC for being a bartender...
Thing is they have to reach. Because they don't have any real arguments. The whole thing is a grift, so they just say whatever stupid shit they think might resonate with people they have no respect for.
My dad can eat more garbage than your dad.
I think the only reasonable response to that quote would be: “Weird flex but ok…”
Not the flex he thought that was lol
Don Jr really can't stop saying the dumbest things and making himself or whoever he's talking about look worse in the process. I'd say the apple doesn't fall far from the tree, but I honestly think he's actually even less aware than his dad.
I think we should just forget talking about Turnip and just talk about Kamala Harris instead.
Did you know her mother, Shyamala Gopalan, was a biologist who arrived in the United States from India in 1958.
That's an uplifting fact. Tell me more!
As the San Francisco district attorney and the attorney general of California, Harris was the first woman, the first African American, and the first Asian American to hold each office.
More, more!
Born in Oakland, California on October 20, 1964, the eldest of two children born to Shyamala Gopalan, a cancer researcher from India, and Donald Harris, an economist from Jamaica.
Not just any economist, one very highly regarded in his field. He's also made no secret of his being a Marxist and I'm amazed they haven't been making more hay out of that.
On the other hand, Jamaica has been getting better and better economically because of his ideas, so maybe they shouldn't.
It doesn’t matter, they’re voting for him anyway. The idea is to boost Kamala enough that planned nonvoters, vote.
That’s all. That’s the point of the campaigning. One more shitty Trump thing on the shitpile of shitty things that have accumulated in 8yrs won’t change anything.
What changes is convincing non voters to vote Kamala. And that happens by talking about Kamala, not Trump.
It really comes down to what bubble they happen to be a part of.
I don't think Trump could pass McDonald's background check, being a convicted felon
He couldn't make it through orientation with his shit attention span.
He looks so fucking tired.
It's not even a real job or even a shift, it's a photo op and he looks like he's about to collapse in all those photos.
"Don't you think he looks tired?"
The restaurant closed down for 30 minutes while Trump played dress up. It’s unclear if the branch’s workers were paid during that interim.
Is it unclear though? I think we all know the answer to that.
I bet that's unauthorized use of trademark and McDs is gonna love it! 😂
Until I see otherwise, it's 100% authorized.
I uninstalled the McDonald's app last November(?) when they tried to make me accept their bullshit binding arbitration T&Cs.
Saving money, feeling better, not supporting fascism.

Honest question - how are they able to use McDonald's M as well as the slogan? Couldn't the burger company sue? (I know it's Trompie, and he won't pay up or care if sued, but still.)
FWIW I think that's not actually official trump/vance website, I think someone else snatched up the domain.
In their yard signs section is "Veterans Against Trump" - but they sure do have a lot of Trump/McDonald's stuff for sale.

Might just be scamming the scammers. I think there's a lot us that kind of wish we had the time and energy to do that.
"My culture is not your costume"
Looking at the health inspection report, they did indeed have lots of culture
Hairnet???????? And cover that glorious hairstyle that inspires all to be their best selves ??? Gloves???? And cover those giant masculine man hands that inspires all to be the work they want to see in the world???? Blasphemy!!!!!!
I can't get over the idea of working a fryer while wearing a shirt with cufflinks.
I wouldn't want that guys fingers near my food either
He's the kind of asshole who definitely wouldn't care about spreading sickness
Hopefully it turns out to backfire the way this photo op flopped in wisconsin
Good that the media has something else to focus on besides his flaming fascistic rhetoric... This is much more important.
That’s the whole point of publicity stunts.
And then today McDonald's had an e coli outbreak. Trump forgot to change his depends that day.
I hope they made sure he had a fresh diaper before that stunt.
