      The right is losing it because Harris said she worked at a McD bad has shown no prove of it.

      Possible she never has and it’s a lie to appeal to the working class voters. Or not. I honestly dgaf.

      This right is behaving as if Trump never told a single lie in his long life. It’s Harris making a claim without backing it up has been THE THING all week now on most right wing forums I peek at.

        It’s worse than this. They’re saying because it wasn’t on her resume (curriculum vitae) 20 years later when she was going for another job, possibly a law job, that it means she was lying.

        These dumb fucks don’t realise that CVs are for listing relevant work to the role you’re applying for. When I was applying to become a software developer I too didn’t list McD on my CV because that’s fucking dumb.

          Exactly this. When I created my very first CV - at the guidance of people from uni - I listed NO experience rather than listing irrelevant jobs when going for my first work study type of jobs. The people that believe this about Harris are just showing how little they know of the professional world.

          Trump is exceptionally unequipped for this because the presidency is the only job Trump ever “applied” for in his life and when we fired him he organized a violent coup, including a gallows for Vice President Michael Pencil. He might really believe resumes contain all of someone’s job history, or he may be throwing ketchup at the wall again.

          Weirdly enough, at 47, I no longer list the dish washing job I had at Ponderosa Steakhouse when I was 16 on my resume.

          And I’m not even an attorney.

          Not 20 years later, but at all. At least that I’d their claim and I haven’t seen it debunked do far.

          I’ll reluctantly link a right wing article that at least tries to come across not overly sensational:

          The Free Beacon also obtained a copy of Harris’s October 1987 job application for a law clerk position in the Alameda County district attorney’s office. On that form, Harris, who was in law school at the time, listed several jobs—including a month-long clerical job at a stock brokerage—in a section that asked her to list every position she held in the last 10 years. McDonald’s is absent.

          Harris lists three jobs on the application and five in total on an attached résumé, according to the documents, obtained through a public records request. Harris, who submitted the application as a second-year student at then-University of California, Hastings College of the Law, included granular life experience on her résumé—“extensive travel in India, Africa, [and] Europe” and “lived in Montreal, Canada for six years”—but not McDonald’s.

          They’ve got photos of the resume and all.

            The three jobs listed on there are somewhat relevant to the law clerk role she was applying for, so I can see why McD wouldn’t be on there.

            Surely, Harris should just release her tax information from that time that show she was paid by McD.

        The weird thing is that they’ll tolerate literally any lie from donnie and still vote for him.

        Or, maybe not that weird. He’s a rich (allegedly), white, male, nominally xtian, Republican, bidnessman. No need to apply any kind of standards.

      It was for weirdos on the right that are so terminally online that they whipped themselves into a frenzy over Kamala working at McD’s. They want to see the long-form birth certificate of her pay slips from - checks notes - several fucking decades ago - at some service-level job or they’ll stamp their feet even more…

    Bonus:

    https://www.newsx.com/world/health-violations-at-mcdonalds-location-that-hosted-trump-what-happened/

    "Notably, Trump did not wear a hairnet or gloves while serving food, claiming that “my hands are clean already.” This assertion stands in stark contrast to health standards that require food handlers to maintain strict hygiene protocols.

    In fact, the McDonald’s location Trump visited has a recent history of health code violations, having failed its last health inspection from Bucks County. The report cited multiple infractions related to employee hygiene, particularly the lack of proper handwashing practices, which are essential for minimizing the risk of foodborne illness."

      “my hands are clean already”

      As someone who ran a restaurant kitchen for 5 years, this is called a lack of standards. Oh I forgot gloves? Meh. That’s a slippery slide that shows you don’t actually care or have standards, and you throw rules by the side when it suits you. That a sign of a shit worker.

      I love how he mocked Harris saying she never worked there or whatever and then does a publicity stunt but can’t even follow the most basic rules of the job. Someone actually working that position would be terminated for health code violation.

          Wasn’t one excuse he gives for eating at McDonalds is because he knows he won’t be poisoned? Like when he was in the White House, with a fancy ass kitchen staff full of top chefs he’d still rather get McDonald’s.

      I’m kind of a germaphobe and am big on washing hands, but if I were a mcdonalds employee, there’s just no way I’d have gloves on to put out the hamburger patties then take the gloves off, and wash my hands, then put another set of gloves on to do other food prep stuff.

      I’m not washing my hands between every glove swap. You don and doff your gloves correctly there’s no reason to.

    At first I found it baffling that the Trump Campaign would go along with Donald’s McStupid idea for a photo op because anyone not experiencing significant cognitive decline would be able to see that it’d put a lot of unwanted attention back on the fact that Donald Trump has never worked a day in his life. But after some thought, I suppose it did succeed in getting people to stop talking about his dementia induced DJ set for an afternoon.

      Back in 2016 I wondered what the world would say if trump and hillary released a sex tape 2 months before the election.

      It’s two people who you’d never want to see naked, or fuck.

      Now in 2024, maybe it’s the resemblance to Maya Rudulph, but Harris is definately fuckable.

      But if there were a Harris and trump sex tape released, I would expect Harris to be wearing a big black strapon, just so she can make trump gag on his own words in other ways.

      Now, if we could get a mid-90s Bill Clinton together with a modern day Kamala Harris? That’s a fuckable presidential couple! Just like JFK and Jackie! Or Barrack and Michelle.

        Maybe it’s me, but I generally don’t spend much time thinking about presidential candidates having sex unless they’re doing scandals about it. I honestly couldn’t care less so long as everyone involved is a consenting adult. Which incidentally is my issue with Trump’s sex life
