The View Goes Off On Trump’s McDonald’s Photo Op While Whoopi Calls Him Out For Not Wearing a Hair Net: ‘I Don’t Want Your French Fries!’

 

ABC’s The View covered former President Donald Trump’s photo op at a McDonald’s, and co-host Whoopi Goldberg had one major complaint: “No net? Really?”

The staged photo op at the fast food restaurant in Pennsylvania on Sunday was intended to drive the (false) point home that Trump’s opponent Vice President Kamala Harris never worked at a McDonald’s. (She did.) This is a lie Trump has latched onto on the campaign trail, and he repeated it while at the McDonald’s. The co-hosts of The View laced into Trump over the stunt, even pointing out that while Trump would not answer a question about raising the minimum wage, Harris actually joined protesting McDonald’s employees in Las Vegas in 2019 who were demanding a $15 minimum wage and better working conditions.

But while the panel brought up the political aspects of the stunt, the conversation was punctuated by the unsanitary nature of the whole thing:

Sunny Hostin: But why not then take the opportunity to talk about raising the minimum wage —

Goldberg: Someone asked him! And he wouldn’t answer it.

Joy Behar: Because it’s easy —

Sara Haines: He knows how much a Happy Meal costs, he doesn’t know how much they get paid.

Behar: It’s easier to talk about people’s genitals than to discuss war, the war in Ukraine, the war in the Middle East, people’s problems with inflation. It’s easier.

Hostin: But as commander-in-chief, he would have to have a working knowledge of these things.

Behar: He has no idea —

Haines: He did it once without a working knowledge!

Goldberg: Yeah, he did it once and didn’t know what he was doing.

Behar: He still doesn’t!

Goldberg: And it’s not going to bode well again, but still — no net? Really? You — I don’t want your French fries!
