The NYT actually spent time interviewing McDonald's employees about Trump's job performance 💀
· Oct 22, 2024 · NottheBee.com

I have really missed the way the media freaks out about Trump.

Let's check in on The New York Times and how they're handling Trump's visit to a Pennsylvania McDonald's over the weekend.

So they had McDonald's employees — akshual McDonald's employees — watch the film of Trump working at McDonald's, and then they asked for comments and critiques of his work.

They really went out and did the hard journalism!!!

I gotta pull some quotes for you, because it's hard to believe this isn't satire.

Several actual McDonald's workers, examining video of Mr. Trump's performance a day later, were less enthused.

‘He doesn't seem to know how to do it,' said David Ye, 22, an employee at a McDonald's on Canal Street in Lower Manhattan, as he watched footage of Mr. Trump negotiating the fryer.

‘The box is, like, backwards,' he said, perplexed, as the former president shoveled a scoopful of fries the wrong way into the iconic red carton.

Can you believe Trump held the box backwards?!?!

More from this non-satirical NYT story:

For a veteran of a reality TV show about business savvy, he committed what appeared to be a number of health code violations, several workers said. Mr. Trump, wearing his signature red tie, donned an apron, but did not opt for a hairnet or gloves. As he filled a box of fries cautiously, he quipped that the food 'never touched the human hand.'

‘Supposing we want some extra salt, can I do it like that?' Mr. Trump asked a worker. Without waiting for an answer, he added several vigorous shakes over a fresh batch of fries. Then, he tossed a handful of salt over his left shoulder, because, he said, he's superstitious.

That did not go over well with some of the half-dozen workers who watched the video.

‘You don't throw salt like that,' said Kishia, a McDonald's manager in Flatbush, Brooklyn, who asked that her full name not be used because she was on the clock. ‘Somebody could have been behind him, you know?'

Some of the best work I've seen in a while from NYT!

To be fair, they did interview one McDonald's employee who thought Trump's shift was "awesome," and that "he did the job with gratitude, and he was proud about it," so at least there's that.

But the majority of the article here is just what we've come to expect from the establishment media: A fistful of hate for President Trump.

I just can't wait to see more of this prime entertainment over the next four years!
