From Trump's stunt at McDonalds [View all]

In today's NY Times, an article about Trump's ridiculous troll-attempt at McDonalds ends with this quote.

His aides filmed him as he toddled around the establishment, working the fryer. At one point, he stuck his head out of the drive-through window and chirped: “I’m having a lot of fun here, everybody!”

He was having a lot of fun trying to use a fryer.

It would be interesting to ask every McDonalds employee how much "fun" they have every day working in that environment.



ETA: To be clear, I respect workers in all legitimate professions. My point is that Trump has never really worked a day in his life and this stunt-- an attempt to troll Vice President Harris-- is insulting;ting to the people who actually work every day for low wages in jobs with little future opportunities.
