This isn’t just about seasoning fries at McDonald’s. It’s a battle at McDonald’s over the blue collar, middle class voter. Democrats are hemorrhaging voters from this demo but so far have offered nothing in the way of solutions to stop the bleeding.

Trump didn’t just go to any restaurant, he went to the number one heritage fast food icon McDonald’s. He didn’t just go to any McDonald’s, he went to a McDonald’s in Pennslyvania, a battleground state, a state each nominee needs to complete their path to 270, a state where they are virtually tied. He had fun and a new round of memes were born. Harris has only succeeded in poorly creating a drop of that level of viral ability on TikTok. Her exchanges are shared because they are cringeworthy. His are shared because they’re funny.
