Contributing sentiments towards policy:

75% : "It's a great franchise," Trump told reporters through a drive-through window, "I've now worked for 15 minutes more than Kamala...
45% : Elsewhere, another user said Trump's McDonald's appearance is evidence that the "Biden economy is so strong," to the point where businesses "are willing to hire convicted felons" like Trump.
45% : " For Trump, those needs might be as simple as the more than 300 McDonald's burgers he ordered to the State Dining Room in 2019.
38% : " For reasons unbeknownst even to old McDonald himself, Trump's appearance is just the latest instance of the fast food chain working its way into the presidential race, with the former president's son, Donald Trump Jr., saying last week that Trump "knows the McDonald's menu better than Kamala Harris ever did.
31% : Trump even donned one of the chain's famous aprons and prepared Happy Meals (or Unhappy Meals, if you're not a Trump fan) as part of the appearance, which drew a large crowd of onlookers who probably just wanted a burger before a presidential candidate rocked up and elongated their plans.
8% : " Trump has continuously doubled-down on the substantiated claim that Harris lied about working at the restaurant in recent weeks, with campaign spokesperson Steven Cheung going as far as calling the Democratic nominee "a liar and fraud" who hasn't given "evidence to back up her claim she worked at McDonald's because she didn't actually work there."
