McDonald's reacts to Trump's appearance behind the restaurant counter in Pennsylvania.


Former US President Donald Trump decided to set an example for young politicians and also work at McDonald's during his election campaign. However, the fast food chain refused to support any of the candidates for the US presidency. This was reported by Bloomberg.
According to the report, Trump did this in response to former Republican candidate Kamala Harris' story that she also worked at McDonald's while studying at university.
Therefore, McDonald's stated that it does not support any candidate for the US presidency.
"McDonald's does not support any candidate for the position... We do not support any political party - we are independent," the network reported.
However, McDonald's confirmed that it had received a request for Trump's desire to visit a restaurant in Pennsylvania.
"We approached this request through the lens of our core values: we are open to everyone," the company said.
McDonald's also added that franchisees, who control over 95% of the restaurants in the US, themselves invited Harris and her vice presidential candidate Tim Walz to visit the network.
It should be noted that during a Sunday walk, Trump entered one of the McDonald's restaurants in Pennsylvania, where he changed into an apron to work in the kitchen. He then handed out food to visitors through the restaurant's drive-thru window, emphasizing that he cooked it himself and everything depended on him.
