Trump wants to deliver for the American people. He knows he has an agenda to accomplish for their sake.
And Donald Trump made a huge promise that his supporters are begging him to keep.
President Trump walked into the McDonald’s Impact Summit in Washington, DC like he owned the place, and he delivered the message every working stiff in this country has been dying to hear: the price insanity is over.
“Prices are coming down,” he said flat-out.
He reminded the room that he inherited the worst inflation in American history from the Biden-Harris disaster. “We took over a mess. We had the highest inflation in the history of our country … and now we have normal inflation.”
Yeah, the fake-news crowd will screech that inflation hit 3% in September and the Big Mac is now six bucks. But those are the dying gasps of the Biden economy. Trump just slashed tariffs on beef, coffee, and tropical fruits last week.
“We have it down to a low level,” the President said. “But we’re going to get it a little bit lower. We want perfection.”
McDonald’s CEO Chris Kempczinski personally told Trump that prices at the chain are already starting to drop. When the man who runs the world’s biggest restaurant company tells the President of the United States that relief is coming, you can take that to the bank.
And Trump, being arguably the most loyal customer McDonald’s has ever had, grinned and said he’s heard it straight from the top: “prices at McDonald’s are coming down.”
He looked out at the crowd and told them the stone-cold truth: “You are so d*mn lucky that I won that election.”
Remember when Trump worked the fry station in Pennsylvania? The man who owns Mar-a-Lago slinging french fries and loving every second of it?
He reminded everyone he’s “the very first former McDonald’s frycook to ever become president of the United States.” And then, with perfect timing: “It was not that easy!”
He told those crew members and managers that they know the real America better than any coastal elitist ever could.
“Before the sun rises, you’re serving hot coffee to construction workers, nurses and police officers on the way to the job.”
The president painted the picture we all know by heart: “In the evening, you stand ready with the fast dinner and the smile for busy moms and their children as they race from school to soccer practice.”
“And late at night your lights are on, and the only one still glowing when the long haul trucker pulls up for a good meal and the best Coca-Cola in America.”
When Trump says prices are coming down, he’s not reading some think-tank report. He’s telling America that the adults are back in charge.
And yeah, he closed with the most presidential food order in history: “I like the fish. You could do a little bit more tartar sauce.”
