Donald Trump, during a rally in Arizona this September, took aim at his political opponent in the upcoming Presidential elections with an unusual claim: "She's a liar. She doesn't work at McDonald's. She said she worked at McDonald's, right? She worked at McDonald's. And she was working so hard. There's only one problem. She didn't work at McDonald's. She's a liar." He adds, "She never worked at McDonald's but it was a big part of her resume."
So, what's behind all this talk about Kamala Harris and her alleged stint at McDonald's??
In a recent interview with MSNBC, Vice President and Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris shared that she worked at McDonald's during her 20s as a summer job while in college. "It was not a small job," Harris said, highlighting the importance of such work. "There are people who work at McDonald's in our country who are trying to... raise families and pay rent."

She emphasised, "Part of the difference between me and my opponent is our perspective on the needs of the American people and our responsibility to meet those needs."
