The liberals at MSNBC were utterly flabbergasted over former President Trump’s campaign stop at a McDonald’s in Pennsylvania on Sunday where he worked the fryer and drive-thru.
“If you’re on his campaign…what is the logic behind this, going to a McDonald’s?” host Alex Witt said.
“I mean, we know the guy likes Big Macs and Filet-o-Fish, and he’s used the word ‘love’ to describe how he feels about the food there. But what’s this about?”
MSNBC says working at McDonald’s is bizarre and strange. This is how @KamalaHarris and the elites think of everyday Americans who work everyday jobs.

Rep. Barbara Lee (D-Calif.) responded, “There’s no logic to it. It’s a stunt. He has not put forth an economic agenda. He appears to be not well, and he’s engaged in some really bizarre types of activities during this campaign.”
“So this is just another one of those stunts that he will continue on through the campaign. And I think that we need to focus on making sure that, uh, he’s not elected, of course, because he is a threat to our democracy,” Lee added.
Trump trolled his Democrat opponent Kamala Harris while working the drive-thru, saying he’s officially “worked for 15 minutes more than Kamala” at McDonald’s.

Harris claimed she had worked at McDonald’s in the Bay Area in the 1980s while in college.
“Part of the reason I even talk about having worked at McDonald’s is because there are people who work at McDonald’s in our country who are trying to raise a family,” the vice president told MSNBC last month.
But McDonald’s upper management instructed employees not to verify to the press whether she had worked at the Alameda branch on Shore Line Drive after the restaurant was inundated with calls from reporters.
Harris has still not provided any evidence that she had worked at McDonald’s.
But one thing is certain: Trump has undeniably worked there, much to the chagrin of the fake news.
