NBC News reports:
Former President Donald Trump served up french fries Sunday at a Philadelphia-area McDonald’s, oversalting spuds and peppering in some jabs at Vice President Kamala Harris.
The franchise in Feasterville was closed for normal business during Sunday’s photo op. The customers who went through the drive thru were pre-selected by the franchise and the local Trump campaign team, according to a person familiar with the event. The cars were also screened and searched, and the people in them were wanded down, according to the source.
The campaign visit in the critical battleground state just over two weeks from Election Day was designed to troll Harris, who has talked about working at one of the fast-food chain’s restaurants when she was younger. Without evidence, Trump has accused Harris of lying about the experience.

Trump arrives for his ridiculous stunt today at a McDonalds. Snipers had to be stationed on the roofs of surrounding businesses for hours for this. pic.twitter.com/yWMejwhcTp

Cosplaying as a fast food worker while you’re trying to cut overtime pay for workers w/ Project 2025 is a different type of evil.

Trump’s McDonald’s stunt was entirely pretend. The store was closed, the car line was rehearsed. It was a rich man cosplaying as a minimum wage worker to fool his rube fans into thinking he understands their plight. He doesn’t. https://t.co/taKe38p91N

The McDonald’s location that Trump visited today was cited earlier this year for health code violations for employees failing to wash hands & not wearing hair restraints. Trump did neither today. https://t.co/xGmYuAM12g

The minimum wage should not be raised because Trump showed today that people who do these jobs aren’t worth shit. Interesting take. pic.twitter.com/V16qWQMFMI
