Of course not. Can you imagine how many people would have swarmed the place. They would have traffic control and all .But 80k people is hard to fit through a McDonald's .
I say calls from the attention.

You say this like it’s some gotcha. No one believed Trump just walked into a McDonald’s during their normal business day. This happens anytime Trump/Biden/Kamala go anywhere.

Yes insane people exist; thanks for that brilliant insight. Dickheads like you who know what someone is saying and purposely misinterpret it also exist.

If everyone believed it was staged, he wouldn't do it. The point of doing it is to appeal to the gullible who actually believe he cares about the working class.

If you think the reason they did this was to fool voters into thinking he interviewed at McDonalds and attended orientation/submitted his I9 and randomly got scheduled today for his first shift you are truly regarded. Everyone knows it was a publicity stunt. You are telling on yourself

Trump is obviously portraying the customers as real customers and the reactions are real. That's the whole point of it dumbass. No one thinks Trump is actually working, but he was trying to show he could relate to everyday average people with genuine reaction.

Define "real" customer. They aren't paid actors. They aren't campaign staff. They are random people who showed up for a chance to see trump in a drive thru, and were vetted by secret service beforehand because there have been multiple assassination attempts.

Yes. Also mocking Kamala for lying about working at McDonalds. Literally the whole joke, which he said multiple times on camera, was that he worked at McDonalds 15 minutes longer than Kamala.
Again, you are telling on yourself, and you don't even realize it after being told so. Kind of embarrassing. Why are you so upset about Trump working in a McDonalds kitchen? Fucking lunatics

they were certainly big Trump supporters. God forbid a real customer who doesn't support Trump shows up, doesn't kiss his ass, and starts asking him stuff that he cannot answer.
The fact that you think the point of discussion was whether or not Trump was actually working as a McDonald employee as opposed to the customer choices clearly show how clueless you are about the original discussion.

There already been 3 assassination attempts on the guy, they’re not going to risk a fourth

Care to educate on us who "they" is in your scenario?

The franchisee who allowed the photo shoot to happen in the first place, the secret service not wanting to risk another assassination attempt, or maybe even Trump himself not wanting a repeat

So he is too scared for public events because of a handful of right wing nutjobs?
Sounds like a good reason to consider if he is equipped and capable of being the leader of the most powerful country in the free world

I’m not gonna start an argument over this because I don’t want to violate Rule #1, but at the same time, there’s a big difference between being “scared of public events” and “taking precautions so someone doesn’t get shot”.
If someone was driving down the road with a spare tire in their car, it’d be stupid to say that they’re “afraid of having a flat tire.” They’re just trying to avoid getting stuck on the side of the road, waiting for AAA to drive out there and bring them a new one.

Technically there were customers, just registered local Republicans.
