The McDonald’s restaurant where Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump briefly worked on Sunday failed its last health inspection, documents show.
The former president manned the fry station and served takeout to people in the drive-thru lane in Feasterville-Trevose in Bucks County, a key swing voter area in battleground Pennsylvania. The restaurant was closed to the public for Trump’s visit.
Trump, a big fan of McDonald’s food and a self-professed germophobe, wore an apron over his shirt and tie but did not wear gloves or a hairnet during his visit, stating that his hands were “nice and clean.” According to the Meidas Touch, he went straight to work without washing his hands.
Employees not washing their hands was one of the reasons that restaurant failed its most recent inspection.
And when the place gets investigated over this, the owner is going to complain that its due to his Trump support, when in reality he was just looking for a way to ignore regulations. Trump supporters always get upset when rules are applied equally to them.
I looked at the reviews, and thought it was getting review bombed with stuff like “Miserable employee at the window” and “unclean and made me sick” but then I noticed those reviews wwre from months ago.
They just let a guy with a diaper and no hair net in their kitchen.
Not surprised.
a guy with a diaper and no hair net in their kitchen
A diaper full of shit, a bunch of long loose hair and unwashed hands. Didn’t follow directions. Got things wrong. Photo-op all the way.
Those hairs aren’t loose. They’ve been secured quite well with hairspray and glue
“The restaurant was closed to the public for Trump’s visit.”
He didn’t even get the full experience of taking actual customer orders and being told how dumb he is and the food thrown back at him because they claim to have asked for no ketchup and extra mayo and the burger had ketchup.
I worked fast food for 3 years. Literally had a guy throw a burger at me because it was missing cheese.
I have a second hand embarassment when I see anyone going off on people in service. I’m pretty sure Don is the guy who does exactly that though. And that’s one another example of him (and them) not wanting to be treated like they want to treat others.
Why aren’t the customers are not considerate for the attendants for such teeny tiny mistakes?
Hunger, fatigue, general negative state of mind maybe.
This particular guy was a contract worker who came in for an early lunch, so I assume they’d been working for some hours before they came in.
Generally the blue collar worker dudes and the after church crowd were the meanest with the least tolerance for mistakes.
What more would you expect from the type of person ordering this shitty food?
In case the quality of the food measures a person’s decency, then it might be a point to be noted.Still basic humanity needs to be there.
The irony is that the same person who throws the food will keep on murmuring angrily if his client or supervisor doesn’t rationalise with him for his minute mistakes
Decency? Or intelligence?
Subjective to the perspective
If your manager doesn’t kick them out of the store, you have to make sure that burger comes out all kinds of wrong multiple times so they never come back.
That franchisee is about to lose it all. McD Corporate isn’t going to like their brand being associated with politics in either direction. This type of stunt is likely prohibited by his franchise agreement. Of course the franchisee, being a Trumper, will whine about how he’s being persecuted for his beliefs.
You might be right, but McD Corporate also doesn’t want to be in the news for enforcing such a rule.
This stunt will hit the late night talk shows this week and probably SNL next weekend, but then it will evaporate. No one really cares about this. Trump might pound his feet and throw a little tantrum to try and keep it relevant, but the election is nearly over.
I’m confident McDonald’s lawyers are looking VERY closely at the restaurant just in case and determining a plan. But more than likely no one is going to remember this in 2 weeks and as long as that McDonald’s makes money corporate don’t care.
But, they also don’t want this to happen ever again.
What I suspect is that it nothing much will happen for months. There might be a sternly worded letter that they send to the franchisee that they really intend for the public: something about how McDonalds is not supporting either party, and franchisees are not permitted to use their locations for political events. Then, months later (especially if Harris wins), they’ll remove that franchise and ban the franchisee from owning a McDonalds again.
Someone send some beers to the poor SNL writers working overtime rn lmao
You mean working half-time? The material practically writes itself as soon as Donnie T. gets involved.
I don’t know, it nearly put the onion under. Every single one of us has an idea of what was said during that caption at the top of this article. Unless they come up with something truly groundbreakingly funny it’s just going to be boring crap we already thought up.
Oh please. As if McD leadership isn’t chock full of MAGA assholes. They love this shit.
Yeah don’t forget the hot coffee incident and that poor lady’s severe burns. McD’s is on the side of corporations.
Or their silently implemented flex pricing
Closed to the public? So who was he there “serving” for two hours? Did he have riot police clear the facility for this photo op, like he did outside the church with the upside-down bible?
Actors, they had a rehearsal before they filmed it
Doesn’t matter. The fact that he was shown working at McDonald humanizes him…
The mentality is. He is capable enough to flip a burger. He is capable enough to be a president in the mind of trumpets…
I doubt anything good will come from any of this. We all need to join in together and vote against everything trumpers stand for.
The thing is, if all his roles were stripped away and he was a nobody he would probably get fired.
Probably? I mean even if he was younger, could you imagine some overweight smelly incoherent guy shuffling around in a little McDonald’s kitchen?
I mean, that kind of sounds like the kind of person I would have met at my first fast food job 30 years ago. He would have been a prime candidate to be a chicken cook.
Twist health inspection was held the moment he stepped out of the kitchen
Nice of them to even wait that long tbf 🤷
Guaranteed to fail the next health inspection too after Trump’s leaking diaper wreaks every floor surface.
Are these ridiculous attempts to humanise someone that lives in his own planet still working? They look quasi medieval to me…
The important thing is that he definitely somehow proved that Kamala Harris never worked at McDonalds by doing this stupid stunt.
Well… add McDonalds to the growing list of companies that won’t be getting another cent from me.
It’s probably worse now
Makes a lot of sense that this franchise owner is a piece of shit.
As he is a known germaphobe, might this steer him away from the clown’s hamberders as his go to meal?
When you have rotting corpses handing out burgers it would
