The McDonald’s restaurant where Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump briefly worked on Sunday failed its last health inspection, documents show.

The former president manned the fry station and served takeout to people in the drive-thru lane in Feasterville-Trevose in Bucks County, a key swing voter area in battleground Pennsylvania. The restaurant was closed to the public for Trump’s visit.

Trump, a big fan of McDonald’s food and a self-professed germophobe, wore an apron over his shirt and tie but did not wear gloves or a hairnet during his visit, stating that his hands were “nice and clean.” According to the Meidas Touch, he went straight to work without washing his hands.

Employees not washing their hands was one of the reasons that restaurant failed its most recent inspection.

    It was a campaign stunt to poke fun at Harris and to make him appear more “one of the regular joes.” If you think that making it look like he could get a job at McDonald’s after his presidency would somehow prove to voters he is fit for the office… Dear God political analysis is not for you.

        The way I see it is that he’s selling himself to a bunch of rubes as the one who is looking out for the little guy. Which is absurd, but the idea that Harris may have had a service job at some point, showing that she actually comes from being one of the regular joes, that really calls into question who actually understands them better. So of course he has to lie and say it didn’t happen.
