In the race for president, Donald Trump is really cooking.
Wearing a red tie and an apron, the former president served up some fries and political shade against his rival during a behind-the-counter stint at McDonald’s on Sunday, which drew a monster crowd to the Feasterville-Trevose fast food restaurant.
McDonald’s has long been one of Trump’s favorite chains, but his visit to the Golden Arches on Sunday doubled as an effort to reiterate his doubts over Vice President Kamala Harris’ claims that she worked there in the 1980s.
“I’ll tell you what. It’s a great franchise. It’s a great company … look at the crowd over there. Look at how happy everyone is. They’re happy because they want hope,” the commander-in-beef told reporters from the drive-through window.
“I’ve now worked for 15 minutes more than Kamala.”
In what his campaign dubbed the “October surp-fries,” McDonald Trump worked the counter and bantered with customers who drove up. His campaign also released footage of him jubilantly preparing Happy Meals.
It was clear they were lovin’ it.
“We got the salt on it. Never touches the human hand. Nice and full,” Trump said while filling a container of fries — a nod to his germophobic tendencies.
Well over a thousand MAGA-Donald’s faithful lined Street Road in Lower Southampton Township in an effort to meet Trump and say “Hail to the chef” at the McDonald’s in critical Bucks County, outside Philadelphia.
“I’ll just take whatever he gives me,” one man told The Post.
“Love him or hate him, I just feel it’s really cool to see this moment in history,” Caitlin Hanlon, 33, a hairdresser from Feasterville who was wearing a pink MAGA hat, told The Post. “It’s a really cool moment, but I obviously support him.”
“Mr. President, thank you for taking a bullet for us,” an excited supporter said after Trump handed two bags of food into her SUV.
“Wow, thank you, Mr. President,” her husband said. “You made it possible for ordinary people like us to meet you.”
Trump seemed to enjoy the McFlurry of activity and quipped, “I like this job.” He said he would be eager to come back and do it again.
He also handed out fries to members of the press stationed outside the drive-through window. “That’s sort of a bribe. But a fry for a buck is okay,” he joked. “Somebody come up here and take them.”
Harris, 60, has repeatedly maintained that she worked at the fast food joint while studying for undergrad and used the tale to highlight her middle-class roots, seeking to juxtapose it with her billionaire foe.
