According to AFP news agency, on October 20 (local time), former US President Donald Trump made an impression when he stopped at a branch of the fast food chain McDonald's in the suburbs of Philadelphia (battleground state of Pennsylvania).
"Potato seller" Donald Trump
Here, Mr. Trump took off his usual suit, put on the black and yellow apron typical of this food chain and started operating the potato fryer. Mr. Trump fried, salted and delivered the fries to a few of his lucky supporters who were allowed into the restaurant. This event was only for a select few, while thousands of people crowded across the street to watch the former president sell potatoes. Smiling throughout the process, Mr. Trump affirmed: "I like this job. I'm having a lot of fun!" Mr. Trump also said that this interesting activity was actually intended to mock Vice President Kamala Harris. Ms. Harris has shared many times about her difficult childhood, having to work at a fast food restaurant to make ends meet. Mr. Trump denied the above assertion but did not provide evidence to support the argument.

In addition, this activity also aims to gain more sympathy from the working class of the US, especially in the fiercest battleground state of Pennsylvania. While serving French fries, Mr. Trump shared: "I don't mind doing this job. I love salt!". When asked by reporters about the fact that October 20 is also Ms. Harris's 60th birthday, the former US president happily sent his best wishes. "I think I'll send her some flowers. Maybe I'll buy her some more French fries," Mr. Trump said.

In contrast to Mr. Trump, Ms. Harris's schedule was somewhat quieter on her birthday. She visited two churches of the black community in the battleground state of Georgia. Throughout October 20, the Democratic presidential candidate repeatedly criticized Mr. Trump for his tendency to make increasingly offensive and gloomy statements. "Mr. Donald Trump will not stand behind the seal of the President of the United States again. He does not deserve that right," Ms. Harris affirmed. The above shares were made in the context of Mr. Trump often comparing illegal immigrants to animals, threatening revenge on his political opponents, as well as describing the US as a failed country that only he can fix. Even during the campaign on October 19, he scolded Ms. Harris as a "terrible vice president" with very vulgar language. Speaking at a large church near Atlanta, Ms. Harris called on the black church here to maintain the values of compassion, instead of "spreading hate, sowing fear and creating chaos" like some others. Also on October 20, Ms. Harris's campaign team gave her a small surprise by holding a birthday party right on Air Force 2. The US Vice President is said to be quite pleased with this surprise.
