AOC Throws a Fit Over Trump’s McDonald’s Visit: ‘They Are Making Fun of Us’

Ocasio-Cortez: “Donald Trump is running around, he put on his little McDonald’s costume. Halloween came early for Donald Trump, because we know that man’s never worked a day in his life. We know that man’s never punched a clock in his life. He’s never wiped down a table in his life. He’s never had to fix his own car. He’s never struggled to make ends meet. He does not know what it means to check your paycheck every week and see what you’ve got left. (...) We see Elon Musk coming in here. He’s doing these little contests where he’s promising people a million dollars in some kind of lottery giveaway if they sign up for his list. You have a billionaire just dangling a million bucks to those of us and many of us who are struggling to make ends meet if they dance for him. You’ve got Donald Trump putting on a little McDonald’s costume because he thinks that’s what people do. They’re not trying to empathize with us. They are making fun of us. Donald Trump thinks that people who work at McDonald’s are a joke. Elon Musk thinks that dangling money in front of a working person is a cute thing to do. They have absolutely no idea what our lives are like. And so they think this callousness is a way of connecting. It’s not a way of connecting, because you and I both know that when that camera turns on and they turn around and go into their car, they’re laughing at us, they think we are the suckers. And they’ve said that publicly. That’s why Elon Musk thinks that your vote can be bought with a dollar. That’s why he thinks that if you put a bunch of money on a mailer and shove it in your mailbox, you’ll just do whatever he says. But Pennsylvania, we’re smarter than that, aren’t we? We don’t take orders from billionaires, do we? We don’t allow our elections to be bought, don’t we? No, we do not. Because we are going to elect Kamala Harris and Tim Walz and send them to the White House.”
