‘I know what I’ve got is of high value’: Fries allegedly made by Trump are going for $10,000 on Facebook

I’ll have a Big Mac, McFlurry, and french fries cooked by the hand of former President Donald Trump, please. 

Following Trump’s campaign stop at a (closed) McDonald’s in Pennsylvania earlier this month, one man from Modena, New York, is now selling “authenticated fries” made and served by the former President for the reasonable price of $10,000 on Facebook Marketplace.

“Brand new untainted French fries from Mcdonald’s in Bucks County Pennsylvania last touched by Donald Trump himself (it has been moved since with gloves to maintain quality),” reads the mistakes-riddled Marketplace description. “*Sauce napkins and bag sold separately* Starting bid is $10,000 no low ball offers I know what I’ve got is of high value.” Listed a week ago, surprisingly the “authenticated fries” haven’t sold yet. 

However, Trump’s limited edition line of “MAGADonald’s” merchandise quickly flew off the shelves following his stint as a fry cook. “True Trump patriots” could purchase the T-shirt featuring Trump in an apron and waving from the McDonald’s drive-through window, featuring the “MAGADonald’s” slogan in red and gold, for just $35. 

At the staged event, which had been closed for the campaign stop, Trump put on an apron to work as a fry attendant and handed people food at the location in an attempt to troll Vice President Kamala Harris. Trump continues to claim without evidence that the vice president is lying about working at the fast-food chain as a summer job in the early 1980s. Harris says she worked at a McDonald’s in Alameda in 1983 during the summer after her freshman year at Howard University.

“Though we are not a political brand, we’ve been proud to hear former President Trump’s love for McDonald’s and Vice President Harris’s fond memories working under the Arches,” the company said in a message to employees after Trump’s campaign stunt. “While we and our franchisees don’t have records for all positions dating back to the early ’80s, what makes ‘1 in 8’ so powerful is the shared experience so many Americans have had.”

From “authenticated” fries to “MAGADonald’s” merch, it seems McDonalds is at the heart of the GOP campaign. “WHEN I’M PRESIDENT THE MCDONALD’S ICE CREAM MACHINES WILL WORK GREAT AGAIN!” Trump also declared on X over the weekend. Brand-new untainted McFlurry touched by Donald Trump himself, anyone?
