Trump’s McDonald’s Visit in Bucks County Sparks Allegations of Staged Event
The former president, who was seen manning the fry station and serving drive-thru customers, made the stop as part of his campaign in Bucks County, a key swing voter area in Pennsylvania.
Shortly after the event, social media users began circulating images of a circular posted outside the McDonald’s, stating that the branch was closed on October 20, 2024. One user, Ron Filipkowski, shared the image on X (formerly Twitter), writing, “So the place wasn’t even open. It was all staged and fake. He didn’t work for real at a McDonald’s. It was a staged fraud just like every other event.
The circular explained that the branch had been closed at the request of Trump and his campaign but emphasized the visit’s purpose. “While we are not a political organization, we proudly open our doors to everyone… this visit provides a unique opportunity to shine a light on the positive impact of small businesses,” the circular stated.
In addition to the closed branch allegations, some users shared images of cars and drivers rehearsing ahead of Trump’s appearance, further fueling claims that the event was orchestrated for campaign purpose
