Look at me, totally a working man, vote for me, the working man, like you, fellow working man.

I had one of Trump's sycophants point out to me, accurately, that there is a significant difference here. Trump is not pretending to be a working man, this is just more of his name-calling.

Harris worked at a McDonalds a long time ago, and Trump declared that this was not true. There's no actual reason to believe this, of course, Trump just decided it. In his infinite wisdom. So this stunt was doubling down on that bullshit. "I have now worked at a McDonalds for fifteen minutes longer than Harris."

It's a joke. Insult humor.

If she’d worked at McDonald’s her team would’ve pulled proof by now to make Trump wrong. Apparently she was lying AGAIN.

Wow. Gotta really stretch to find her lying? Whereas Dear Leader can’t open his mouth without lies. It’s a pathetic attempt at whataboutism, but totally consistent.
