Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump isn’t done taking your order as the final days of the 2024 campaign are turning into a fast food fight with many Americans still stressed over how much it costs to eat.

After creating a viral moment on Sunday by sporting an apron and working as a fry cooker at a McDonald’s in Pennsylvania, the former president’s campaign is now selling “MAGADonald’s” t-shirts.

“I have a McGift for you!” the campaign’s online gift shop says above a t-shirt featuring a photo of Trump leaning out a drive-thru window.

The visit was called a stunt by some critics, but it was part of a larger effort by the Trump campaign to undermine Vice President Kamala Harris and her appeals to working-class and middle-class voters, specifically how she emphasized working at the $225 billion fast food chain in college.

    Naw, they will only persue after the election. No way would they risk displeasing their potential king. Especially if he is saying he will throw more tax breaks their way.

      Depends how much mainstream traction it gets. If the narrative gets out of hand they will have to douse the fire before it destroys their entire brand. Between this and E.coli Big Macs MCD ticker is in for a rough couple months.
