Former President Donald Trump’s recent visit to a McDonald’s in Pennsylvania has sparked mixed reactions among political figures and commentators, revealing divisions within the Democratic Party while also garnering unexpected praise from some media outlets.
During his visit to the fast-food restaurant, Trump engaged with patrons by making French fries and working the drive-through, a move that has been described as both strategic and controversial.
The visit took place shortly after Trump accused Kamala Harris of being disconnected from everyday Americans.
This interaction was highlighted by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who expressed her frustration on social media, stating that Trump’s actions were not an attempt to empathize with the public but rather a mockery. “Donald Trump putting on a little McDonald’s costume because he thinks that’s what people do. They’re not trying to empathize with us. They are making fun of us,” Ocasio-Cortez said.
Ocasio-Cortez also criticized Elon Musk for his recent initiatives, which include giving away $1 million to individuals in Pennsylvania.
She claimed that billionaires in politics only become problematic when they support Republican candidates.
