Fries, Lies, and Campaign Ties: Trump vs. Harris
Donald Trump

Donald Trump, the Republican presidential nominee, plans to visit a McDonald's in Pennsylvania to raise questions about Vice President Kamala Harris' past employment claims. Harris has stated she worked at the fast-food chain during her college years, a claim Trump disputes without evidence.

Trump's planned visit includes working the french fry cooker before participating in a town hall in Lancaster and attending a Steelers game in Pittsburgh. Crowds gathered near the Feasterville-Trevose McDonald's, where streets were closed off by police as supporters waited for a glimpse of Trump.

Harris, a former prosecutor and senator, cites her McDonald's experience to connect with working-class Americans. Her campaign dismisses Trump's claims as desperate tactics. This marks another instance of Trump's use of conspiracy theories in his campaign strategies.
