PALM BEACH, Fla. — Former President Donald J. Trump took to social media on Saturday to make a lighthearted vow, promising that under his leadership, McDonald’s ice cream machines would “work great again.” Trump’s post, shared on both his X (formerly Twitter) and Facebook accounts, read: “WHEN I’M PRESIDENT THE MCDONALD’S ICE CREAM MACHINES WILL WORK GREAT AGAIN!”
The comment appears to play into a long-standing internet joke about the frequent malfunctions of McDonald’s ice cream machines, which have been a recurring source of frustration for customers.
Although primarily viewed as a humorous statement, Trump’s post quickly gained traction among his followers, generating discussions online about the light tone of the remark amid his ongoing campaign activities.
No official statement has been released by McDonald’s in response to Trump’s post.
Kamala Harris has yet to adopt Trump’s plan and call it her own.
