Nobody believes that trump is capable of working a shift at mcdonalds. This was just a reaction to Kamala mentioning mcdonalds once, and trump the dancing monkey leaps at the bait like a fool. She is playing him like a cheap fiddle.
Observed employees handling raw beef with gloves and then switching gloves without hand washing step in-between,"
I've worked in MacDonald and this one is bullshit. Every time you use the grill you handle raw, frozen, patties with the glove. Of you were you wash the hands every time your skin would fall of after one day.
Also, the point of the glove is to not contaminate the hand. What's the need for washing between uses?
you might touch the outside of the glove with your hand while don/doffing it, so the washing between glove changes is to prevent cross contamination.
Or, if the gloves break.
Every round of the grill (8 patties) there's a glove put and removed. Nobody is washing the hands.
If it breaks sure, but that is an entirely different topic.
And then today McDonald's had an e coli outbreak. Trump forgot to change his depends that day.
The restaurant closed down for 30 minutes while Trump played dress up. It’s unclear if the branch’s workers were paid during that interim.
Is it unclear though? I think we all know the answer to that.
Hopefully it turns out to backfire the way this photo op flopped in wisconsin
People lost their houses over this shit 😑
yep and that was before they disclosed anything
I bet that's unauthorized use of trademark and McDs is gonna love it! 😂
Until I see otherwise, it's 100% authorized.
I uninstalled the McDonald's app last November(?) when they tried to make me accept their bullshit binding arbitration T&Cs.
Saving money, feeling better, not supporting fascism.

Honest question - how are they able to use McDonald's M as well as the slogan? Couldn't the burger company sue? (I know it's Trompie, and he won't pay up or care if sued, but still.)
FWIW I think that's not actually official trump/vance website, I think someone else snatched up the domain.
In their yard signs section is "Veterans Against Trump" - but they sure do have a lot of Trump/McDonald's stuff for sale.

Might just be scamming the scammers. I think there's a lot us that kind of wish we had the time and energy to do that.
Good that the media has something else to focus on besides his flaming fascistic rhetoric... This is much more important.
That’s the whole point of publicity stunts.
He looks so fucking tired.
It's not even a real job or even a shift, it's a photo op and he looks like he's about to collapse in all those photos.
"Don't you think he looks tired?"
Don Jr then boasted: “I think my father knows the McDonald’s menu much better than Kamala Harris ever did.”
Yeah I'm sure he does, you fucking dumbass
It's such a weird thing to brag about.
The MAGoos were trying to manufacture a scandal; they found one of Harris's old resumes and tried to imply that she was ashamed of her roots. Supposedly, she should have put in her time at McDonalds on a professional resume. If that sounds like a weird overreach, it's because it is a weird overreach
When I was starting out every resume book, class, website said not to put retail or food service jobs on your resume unless you were applying to your very first professional job (shows you can hold a job and have some experience working with others and taking orders from a manager) or it was relevant to the job you were applying to.
The reason Trump and his handlers think this is such a gotcha is because they got all their jobs from mommy and daddy and their parents' friends. His cult has worked the same job their entire life, don't actually work and collect worker's comp, or don't need a resume for the type of job they have.
Not really impressive.
Thing is they have to reach. Because they don't have any real arguments. The whole thing is a grift, so they just say whatever stupid shit they think might resonate with people they have no respect for.
They should have learned their lesson when they tried attacking AOC for being a bartender...
I review a lot of resumes. When it's for someone right out of school or very early career, it makes sense for them to include things like fast food work or retail. But it seems really strange when someone with decades of relevant experience (I hire software engineers) includes it.
I put strange stuff like that in my resume just to stick out to people like you. Twice now I've been hired partly because I'm a Dungeon Master.
You know, I've had this debate with other managers at work. One was incensed because he got a resume that listed being a raid leader, and thought it was ridiculous. I told him I used to be a WoW raid leader and, even though it's a game, it requires explaining encounters to people who might not be familiar with them, getting ten or more people to follow a game plan, staying calm when things aren't going to plan, and a whole lot of other skills that are useful in the workplace. I've never thought to put it on my own resume, but I think it's pretty valid.
I can't get over the idea of working a fryer while wearing a shirt with cufflinks.
I wouldn't want that guys fingers near my food either
He's the kind of asshole who definitely wouldn't care about spreading sickness
I think we should just forget talking about Turnip and just talk about Kamala Harris instead.
Did you know her mother, Shyamala Gopalan, was a biologist who arrived in the United States from India in 1958.
