Contributing sentiments towards policy:

53% : Trump is far from the first candidate to invoke the Golden Arches during their campaign.
44% : Derek Giacomantonio, the franchisee who owns and operates the McDonald's restaurant where Trump appeared, said in a statement that a job at McDonald's is "more than burgers and fries, but a meaningful pathway to opportunity.
39% : Visitors to the drive-thru had to be screened by the Secret Service and didn't get to choose what Trump handed them, the Post reported.
14% : Part of the reason Trump was rolling up his sleeves and getting frying is because his opponent Kamala Harris has spoken about working at McDonald's in 1983 to earn money as a college student (something that Trump and his team have repeatedly said didn't happen, without providing any evidence).
