Former President Donald Trump worked the fryer at a Philadelphia-area McDonald\u2019s on Sunday as he continues to mock Democratic presidential opponent Vice President Kamala Harris\u2019 accounts of her experience working at the fast food restaurant.<\/p>\n

The former president was scheduled to speak at a Lancaster, Pennsylvania, rally later in the day before attending the New York Jets-Pittsburgh Steelers NFL game Sunday night.<\/p>\n

Harris spoke at services at two congregations in battleground Georgia on Sunday morning as her campaign continues to encourage groups that are traditional Democratic voters to get to the polls.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe all know your parents, who gave so much and led such an honorable life, and including, of course, among the leaders upon whose broad shoulders we stand, Congressman John Lewis, they they all knew, and by their example, they taught us that faith and good works go hand in hand, and that is especially true when it comes to protecting our sacred right to vote and getting souls to the polls,\u201d Harris said at Divine Faith Ministries International in Jonesboro near Atlanta.<\/p>\n

Harris, who celebrated her 60th birthday on Sunday, was treated to a rendition of \u201cHappy Birthday\u201d by Stevie Wonder, who attended the Jonesboro service.<\/p>\n

\u201cPeople talk about a bucket list \u2014 I think I have just checked off a whole big one to have Stevie Wonder himself sing me \u2018Happy Birthday,\u2019\u201d the vice president said.<\/p>\n

The vice president also taped an interview with MSNBC\u2019s Al Sharpton that will air later Sunday.<\/p>\n

Harris\u2019 running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, also tried to get out the vote at a church service and union hall in Michigan, another battleground state. He was to finish the day with fundraising events in Boston and Connecticut.<\/p>\n

Trump\u2019s running mate, Ohio Sen. JD Vance, also met voters where they were, speaking at a bar near Lambeau Field, home of the NFL\u2019s Green Bay Packers, and at a tailgate party outside the stadium. He was to address a rally later in Wisconsin later in the day.<\/p>\n

Trump has long challenged Harris\u2019 telling of life lessons she learned while working at a McDonald\u2019s during summer break while she was a student at Howard University. On Sunday, the former president took his trolling a step further by putting an apron over his shirt and tie and learning how to work the fryer.<\/p>\n

During an impromptu news conference through the drive-through window where he was handing out orders, Trump repeated that he would accept the results of the election with conditions.<\/p>\n

\u201cYeah, sure, if it\u2019s a fair election. Always. I\u2019ll always accept it if it\u2019s a fair election,\u201d Trump said, again questioning the integrity of the election system a little more than two weeks ahead of Election<\/a> Day.<\/p>\n

He also shot back at a reporter who asked how he would respond to sentiments that Harris is a more unifying candidate, saying he thinks Harris is \u201cthe most divisive person I\u2019ve ever seen,\u201d accusing her of lying about her job applications.<\/p>\n

Trump did wish Harris a happy birthday through the drive-through window, quipping that \u201cmaybe\u201d he would give her flowers or some fries.<\/p>\n

Senior Harris campaign adviser Ian Sams said Trump\u2019s McDonald\u2019s event was a sign of his desperation as Election Day nears.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen Trump feels desperate, all he knows how to do is lie. He can\u2019t understand what it\u2019s like to have a summer job because he was handed millions on a silver platter, only to blow it,\u201d Sams said in a statement.<\/p>\n

Harris has on a number of occasions talked about her experience working at McDonald\u2019s.<\/p>\n

\u201cPart of the reason I even talk about having worked at McDonald\u2019s is because there are people who work at McDonald\u2019s in our country who are trying to raise a family,\u201d she told MSNBC\u2019s Stephanie Ruhle in September.<\/p>\n

Earlier, Trump defended his \u201cenemy from within\u201d comments to Fox News\u2019 Howard Kurtz and identified California Democratic Rep. Adam Schiff, who led impeachment efforts against him, and former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s an enemy from within. That\u2019s really that is a threat to democracy. These are bad people. We have a lot of bad people, but when you look at Shifty Schiff and some of the others, yeah, they are, to me, the enemy from within,\u201d he said. \u201cI think Nancy Pelosi is an enemy from within.\u201d<\/p>\n

But he did say that he would not seek retribution against his opponents, even though he has said in the past that he would.<\/p>\n

\u201cNo, I don\u2019t want to do that because that\u2019s a bad thing for the country. I don\u2019t want to do that. I don\u2019t know who said, I haven\u2019t said that I would, but they have done it,\u201d Trump said, referring to his opponents.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
