Former President Donald Trump took on a new role Sunday afternoon, cooking up fries and serving them to customers at a McDonald's in Pennsylvania, while also delivering a prolific rant to Vice President Kamala Harris.
President Trump entered the store, shook hands with the owner and said, “Hello, everyone. This is my first day at McDonald's. I'm looking for a job.”
Thousands of Trump supporters surrounded a McDonald's restaurant as the president accused Harris of lying about working at a fast-food restaurant, where she spent the afternoon working as a fry cook.
“I worked 15 minutes longer at McDonald's than Kamala,” Trump said through the drive-thru window as he handed out orders.

President Trump continued, “I've wanted to do this all my life. She didn't do it, so now I'm going to do it.”
Trump also claimed to have spoken to McDonald's about Harris' claims that she worked for the fast food chain.
“She shouldn't lie about that. McDonald's has admitted four times that she never worked here. But let's not talk about that. This is a great business. It's a great country, and we're going to make America greater than ever,” Trump said.
Wearing an apron and making french fries, President Trump spoke to reporters about his phone call with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, raising the minimum wage, what it's like to work at McDonald's, and even spoke to Kamala. We celebrated Harris' birthday.

FOX News Digital's Brooke Singman, who accompanied Trump during his shift, said he was in great spirits and was actually cooking and taking orders for customers.
“I love McDonald's. I love my job. I love seeing good work. And I think it's inappropriate for someone to be so disparaging about the place you work. That's her history. That's an important part of the book, consider that you worked at McDonald's,'' Trump said.
As Trump smiled, made fries and continued to serve customers, he praised his managers and promised to make America better if elected president again.
“Look how happy everyone is. They're happy because they want hope. They need hope. And that's what we're doing, the hope that you're trying to make come true. We're going to take hope and make it happen, “take it back,'' President Trump said.
One of the drive-thru customers Trump surprised was a family from Brazil, who implored the former president to fix America and stop it from becoming like their home country.

In a video posted by Trump's deputy director of communications, Margo Martin, the driver yells, “Oh my god, oh my god,” when he realizes Trump is ignoring his orders.
“Look at all the fake news over there,” President Trump said, pointing to the drive-thru window.
“Can I take this?” the driver asked as he handed Trump the payment.
“You do realize this is a tribute to Trump, right?” he responded, handing the order to the driver.
“Yes, thank you. Mr. President, please don't let America become Brazil, please don't let it become my home country of Brazil,” the driver begs.
“We're going to do better than ever, okay?” Trump said, shaking hands and continuing to greet the crowd through the drive-thru window.

“Today, Donald Trump demonstrated exactly what we will see in a second Trump term: exploiting workers for his own personal gain. , doesn't understand what it means to work for a living, no matter how staged the photo shoot, and his whole second-period plan is, he and his wealthy friends, “Giving giant corporations even bigger tax breaks,” the statement said. “Vice President Harris, on the other hand, has a history of standing up for working people and confronting bad actors who extort money from people, and she will do the same with the president.”
