Donald Trump campaigned this Sunday at a McDonald’s. The Republican candidate for the White House put on his apron, entered the kitchen of a fast food restaurant and started frying some french fries. He also took care of customers who came to the factory. All this to ensure that Kamala Harris has never worked in a restaurant of this type, as the Democratic candidate claims.
Trump claims that’s a lie. Therefore, he went to a McDonald’s in Pennsylvania and proved that he had actually worked in one. The Republican accuses Harris of making up that he worked for this fast food chain when he was young. «I love McDonald’s. I love the works. And I think it’s inappropriate when someone says anywhere that he worked at a McDonald’s (…) but he’s never worked at a McDonald’s,” Trump said of his opponent.
All this to deny Harris, whose campaign claims that the vice president worked in the summer of 1983 at a McDonald’s in the city of Alameda (California), working the cash register and cooking french fries, to pay for her studies at Howard University. , in Washington.
Ian Sams, a spokesman for Harris, said Sunday that Trump is lying out of desperation: “He can’t understand what it’s like to have a summer job because they gave him millions on a silver platter and then he squandered them,” he said. .
Harris does not mention her experience at McDonald’s in her memoirs, and the first time she apparently spoke about it publicly was during her first presidential campaign in 2019, when she joined striking workers at that company in Las Vegas.
McDonald’s has avoided responding to numerous US media requests for information asking to confirm whether Harris worked at the restaurant 40 years ago.
