Cross-posted from āToo Bad, So Sad, Too Late - McDonaldās tells U.S. restaurants itās not a āpolitical brandā after Trump visitā by @[email protected] in [email protected]
Excerpt:
Though President Donald Trump visited a Pennsylvania McDonaldās location on Sunday, the fast-food giant is trying to stay neutral in the presidential race.
āAs weāve seen, our brand has been a fixture of conversation in this election cycle. While weāve not sought this, itās a testament to how much McDonaldās resonates with so many Americans. McDonaldās does not endorse candidates for elected office and that remains true in this race for the next President,ā the company said in an internal message viewed by CNBC and confirmed by a source familiar with the matter.
I havenāt eaten at a McDonalds since before covid, and I donāt really miss it.
I still hate the chicken place more. On top of the other overtly political shit, I really dislike how they get their shitty restaurants into airports and thruways and other places with captive audiences and then still close on Sunday just for their virtue signalling bullshit. If they were actual Christians they would pay their employees more and open on Sundays to give food to the hungry. Hell even Ronald gives some money to orphans.
Exactly what they did in New York State. What use is a highway rest stop where the main food store is closed on Sunday?
But the company that New York gave the contract to is the problem. They made those rest stops too small. All it takes is one bus stopping and the line for the tiny restrooms will take a half an hour. I hope the company goes bankrupt and they tear them all down again and rebuild them to be the proper size.
