Former President Donald Trump has once again questioned the credentials of his political opponents by claiming that Vice President Kamala Harris never worked at McDonald's. During a campaign event in Detroit, Trump reiterated his assertion that Harris 'lied about her work at McDonald's,' calling the situation 'terrible.' Despite not being a topic of great relevance, the former president has emphasized it as part of his strategy to discredit his political rivals.
Kamala Harris, former California Attorney General and current Vice President, has used her work experience at McDonald's as an example to demonstrate her understanding of the struggles of the working class. In a recent interview with MSNBC, Harris rejected Trump's accusations, stating that she did indeed work at the fast-food chain four decades ago while she was in college. According to Harris, talking about her job at McDonald's is a way to connect with those who are trying to progress despite workplace adversities.
Amidst his criticisms of Harris, Donald Trump is expected to visit a McDonald's in Pennsylvania, where he will supposedly operate the fryer as part of his agenda. Subsequently, he is scheduled to attend a town hall meeting in Lancaster before witnessing the American football game between the Pittsburgh Steelers and the New York Jets.
Trump's persistence on this seemingly trivial topic compared to other political issues reflects his insistence on using conspiracy theories and misinformation to undermine the image of his opponents. Although the relevance of this controversy is debatable, the former president continues to promote this narrative without providing concrete evidence to support his claims.
