Democrats and liberal media wasted no time in mocking former President Donald Trump’s visit to a McDonald’s restaurant near Philadelphia on Sunday, as he donned an apron, dished up fries, and worked the drive-through window.
One liberal meltdown episode was on MSNBC, as host Alex Witt and Democratic California Rep. Barbara Lee mocked Trump’s McDonalds stop and made it clear they just don’t get it, while insisting he’s a “threat to democracy.”
Witt declared, “He’s going to work a fryer, apparently, before he goes to the Steelers vs. Jets game. I mean, if you are on his campaign – and I know you are certainly not, I’m not making any implication of that. What is the logic behind this? We know the guy likes big macs and fillet of fish, and he’s used the word love to describe the way he feels about the food there before. But what’s this about?”
Wildly, Rep. Lee claimed, “There’s no logic to it, it’s a stunt. He has not put forth an economic agenda. He, as you know, appears to be not well. 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 really focus on making sure that he is not elected, of course, because he is a threat to our democracy.”
Trump campaign spokesman Steven Cheung shared a video of MSNBC’s meltdown and wrote, “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.”

Meanwhile, the people in Pennsylvania weren’t one bit puzzled about Trump’s McDonald’s stop. Instead, they were ecstatic, enthused and energized, as they lined the streets in a MASSIVE show of support unlike anything Kamala Harris has ever experienced.
Perhaps it was THIS moment, more than Trump dishing up french fries, that has Democrats in a panic?

Below are some of the best moments of Trump handing out food to the drive-through customers:

Despite Democrats mocking the McDonald’s campaign stop, as they claim Trump is a “threat to democracy” that must be stopped, the Trump campaign noted this was one of the most successful campaign moves EVER.
Trump advisor Tim Murtaugh shared another video and wrote, “Donald Trump is working at McDonald’s near Philadelphia in the afternoon and will go to the Steelers game tonight in Pittsburgh. There has never been a better day of campaigning in Pennsylvania. Ever. By anyone. Pennsylvania is Trump country.”

MSNBC is being mocked by conservatives for their slam against the McDonald’s visit.
“They must not know that Trump did things like this at his own company YEARS before he ever ran for president. He’s been the dog walker, the door greeter, the luggage guy etc. This isn’t a stunt. It’s one of the things that made Trump likable before he became the second coming of Hitler in their eyes,” recalled Jaye Mays.

Business owner Simon VanDyk wrote, “What they say is bizarre is a brilliant move by a political tactician. Everyone is talking about it as well as how Kamala lied and never worked there.”
Journalist Collin Rugg replied, “They’re mad because they know today was one of the best campaign days in U.S. history.”

Juanita Broaddrick wrote, “MSNBC is so bizarre and laughable. Trump is talking to the common everyday people. Those people who want him back in office to make their lives better.”
“Imagine how painful today was for them,” Rugg responded.

They’re scared of a real leader who isn’t afraid to get his hands dirty.
Calling him ‘not well’ just reveals their desperation

To be clear there was nothing bizarre or strange about it when Kamala said she worked there.

It just doesn’t land the same when your “threat to democracy” is serving up hot fries with a handshake and a smile.

But Kamala bringing a twerking rapper to a rally was cool.

A huge Trump billboard was seen along the highway, as Trump’s motorcade was en route to the McDonald’s restaurant.

Keith Kellogg, a former National Security advisor who served during the Trump administration, shared one photo of Trump at the McDonald’s restaurant and wrote, “It is said a picture is worth a thousand words. @realDonaldTrump serving fries and welcoming people at a McDonald’s drive through. From fight-fight-fight after getting shot at a rally to this. THIS is the real Donald J Trump I know.”
