The McDonald's restaurant where Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump briefly worked on Sunday failed its last health inspection, documents show.

The former president manned the fry station and served takeout to people in the drive-thru lane in Feasterville-Trevose in Bucks County, a key swing voter area in battleground Pennsylvania. The restaurant was closed to the public for Trump's visit.

Trump, a big fan of McDonald's food and a self-professed germophobe, wore an apron over his shirt and tie but did not wear gloves or a hairnet during his visit, stating that his hands were "nice and clean." According to the Meidas Touch, he went straight to work without washing his hands.

Employees not washing their hands was one of the reasons that restaurant failed its most recent inspection.

"The restaurant was closed to the public for Trump's visit."

He didn't even get the full experience of taking actual customer orders and being told how dumb he is and the food thrown back at him because they claim to have asked for no ketchup and extra mayo and the burger had ketchup.

wait what?! So he is being lead through the fry making process for nothing. What is the point.

Same vibes as Kim Jong Un touring a factory.

What is the point.

To own the Libs obviously. Kamala Harris' first job was McDonald's so Trump had to do it, better.

[–] Dainterhawk999@lemmy.world 11 points 11 hours ago

That too without any customers... Bcoz he feared he might be egged or hurled with orders for his illogical blatant of why Trump burgers are way better

[–] undercrust@lemmy.ca 57 points 15 hours ago

Performative nonsense, like most of the Republican agenda

[–] Valmond@lemmy.world 1 points 7 hours ago

Maybe try to make believe trump is just another ordinary guy after all.

I worked fast food for 3 years. Literally had a guy throw a burger at me because it was missing cheese.

[–] Dainterhawk999@lemmy.world 6 points 13 hours ago (2 children)

Why aren't the customers are not considerate for the attendants for such teeny tiny mistakes?

[–] Halosheep@lemm.ee 6 points 11 hours ago

Hunger, fatigue, general negative state of mind maybe.

This particular guy was a contract worker who came in for an early lunch, so I assume they'd been working for some hours before they came in.

Generally the blue collar worker dudes and the after church crowd were the meanest with the least tolerance for mistakes.

What more would you expect from the type of person ordering this shitty food?

[–] Dainterhawk999@lemmy.world 2 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

In case the quality of the food measures a person's decency, then it might be a point to be noted.Still basic humanity needs to be there.

The irony is that the same person who throws the food will keep on murmuring angrily if his client or supervisor doesn't rationalise with him for his minute mistakes

Subjective to the perspective

I have a second hand embarassment when I see anyone going off on people in service. I'm pretty sure Don is the guy who does exactly that though. And that's one another example of him (and them) not wanting to be treated like they want to treat others.
