    Given his rapidly accelerating cognitive decline, I wouldn’t let him anywhere near a deep fryer. He’s liable to accidentally burn that restaurant down if he has another ‘dancing episode’ or something similar.

    He’ll take one basket out of a fryer and say he worked as a fry cook for the rest of the campaign. Make him do it for a single hour at a peak time without any help and see what happens. Bet he or someone there will end up in the hospital and no one will get any fries.

    He won’t do a second debate release his medical records, or go on 60 Minutes, but he’ll stand in front of a fry cooker for a 20 minute photo op because he thinks Kamala Harris lied about… *checks notes* working at McDonalds? And what exactly does this prove? Is anybody really going to be fooled into believing that the dude born into wealth and living in a gilded tower will suddenly manifest some empathy for the common man’s plight by working one shift at a Mickey D’s?

      I’d be surprised if he actually works a full shift. And either way, I guarantee there is no way he gets the average employee treatment. Aside from the bad press it would generate for them with all the cameras around, there is a real danger of hurting the fuhrer’s feelings and being put on his probably-not-so-metaphorical hit list.

        I think I heard him say at one of his appearances that he’s going to work for 30 minutes, and then said it would be longer than Kamala ever worked there. So yeah, he’s never been planning on putting in a full shift.

      Apparently he thinks that showing McDonald’s work would be way too easy for Kamala Harris is an attack on her.

    I hope the moron listens to his inner voices and reaches into the fryer to grab the fries.

      I kinda hope he decides to listen to music and sway while it bubbles over and causes a grease fire. Which he then tries to extinguish with water.

      Hope everyone knows where the exits are.

    As a general rule, I’m against harassing food service employees. But if someone were to throw a shake at him, I think we could let it slide this one time

    It’ll probably be more like standing next to the fryer with a teenager nearby to make sure he doesn’t fuck everything up.

    Googling this, it seems like he’s trying to EMPHASIZE Harris working there when she was younger. If he actually does this, it will backfire spectacularly.

    If he says she’s lying about working there, it just looks like an insane conspiracy theory because it’s one of the most common jobs. It’s not like an impossible thing.

    If he tries to say it’s easy so no one should be impressed with her, he just insults every fast food worker in America.

    I think this is a really smart move if he never mentions Harris, it makes him look more down to Earth and humble which…he needs. If he’s doing it as a commentary on Harris, it’s going to backfire.

      If him standing up physically mocking and verbally mocking a disabled veteran didn’t backfire, I’m past the point of thinking anything he does at all will alienate a single member of his base.

      I can’t imagine what possible reason someone would have to lie about working at McDonald’s. I really can’t.

      I can’t imagine he’d care about insulting every fast food work in the country, and all of his voters love to pick on them so I don’t see how that would even hurt him.
