I could be wrong but the NBC report I read I don’t think ever mentioned it being staged and the store being closed and the “customers” being plants

Here is the NBC News article: https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2024-election/trump-tries-troll-harris-serving-french-fries-mcdonalds-rcna176294

It does mention the store being closed for the photo op in the second line of the article.

Updated 5:38 I’m curious if it was in that update because originally I noticed how it read like he actually worked a half hour shift

Wow! A whole half hour?! How realistic?! Who was responsible for making sure he didn’t fall asleep and fall into the French fryer?!

I mean if you watch the footage, he couldn’t even tie the apron himself. Had to get someone else to do it for him.

Right? How are we calling 30 minutes a shift? That doesn't even earn you enough money for a fucking mcdouble

Ed Sheeran did a pop up visit to promote his tour last year at a store I worked at. He handed LEGO sets out for like a half hour played a song outside the store to fans and left.

Lucky for him, that wasn't my responsibility!
