As we draw closer to November 5th, Harris and Trump are getting in their final campaign stops in a race that promises to be nail-bitingly close. But while Harris is carting around Liz Cheney in an effort to appeal to moderate undecided voters, Trump is pulling his usual shenanigans. This weekend, the disgraced ex-President showed up at a Pennsylvania McDonald’s location, where he served fries to customers who probably no sooner saw Trump at the window than promptly lost their appetite.

But there’s something even more sinister going on with Trump’s McDonald’s publicity stint, according to public opinion.

Yesterday, news broke that something is awfully amiss with McDonald’s Quarter Pounder, and it’s leading to an E. coli outbreak across 10 states. I guess that’s what happens when you let a bag of leaking radon disguised as a person man the checkout station.

Obviously Trump isn’t the source of the E. coli outbreak—but you have to admit, the timing is pretty hilarious. And while we’re at it…why wasn’t that man forced to wear gloves? We’re still in the middle of a panaderia, people!

Not sure whose idea this was, but it didn’t take long to backfire in the funniest way possible.

We knew Trump was vomit-inducing, but this is taking it to a literal level.

This is the rare instance where “sickening” is NOT a compliment.

Never let it be said that this election didn’t deliver some truly Christopher Guest-level laughs.

Is this the Disease that Lady Gaga sings about? If so, her mind…

But wait, there’s more! As a cherry on top of this delightful E. coli sundae, people are also taking this opportunity to flood the Yelp page for this specific McDonald’s with poor reviews. “Wouldn’t eat a fry that diaper rash serves,” one commenter wrote. I should hope not! “Fire that smelly old man cursing at the fryer!” Another commenter joked. “Employees seemed extremely angry and confused like he didn’t even really know where he was. I think I smelled sh*t.”

Again, no one would be surprised. “Fire that smelly old man” is really all that needs to be said. If only Kamala had chosen that as her campaign slogan!
