Now, the Democratic presidential candidate’s campaign is nodding to her summer job to highlight her upbringing and a platform to boost American workers that stands in stark contrast to her Republican rival Donald Trump, who “has no plan to help the middle class — just more tax cuts for billionaires,” according to a recent ad.
*to have worked at Macdonalds.
Contrary to trump, she actually worked in her life.
Things must be getting really bad if the president needs a second job…
TIL. Those who have worked in the food industry, will always have way more respect for somebody else who has worked in the food industry.
That shit is hard. I wonder if she had that moment many in that industry have had crying in the cooler.
Oh, that’s probably why conservatives fear her. Not the legal background.
She doesn’t just relate to millennials and younger, she’s suffered like millennials and younger
She’s gen-x
Gen-x got fucked over big time in a way we millenials didn’t, but only because the expectation for them was so much higher. They got almost the same raw deal we did without the previous generation to buffer them.
They shouted and raised the alarm bells about what was being done to millenials and younger.
Lots of gen x slipped right in with the boomers and have their life, but many many more are out here struggling with us millennials except they didn’t grow up in a world where it was apparent it was slipping from them.
Gen-xers are gonna be huge for us honestly.
Younger gen-x here. You nailed it.
She’s actually born one year before gen x, so god willing the next president will be a millenial and we’ll totally skip over ever having a gen x president
The cut off dates are fuzzy. More like guidelines than actual rules.
They really are just like us, come look, she even worked at mcdonalds.
Aw, that’s not fair to presidents elected prior to 1955 that never had the chance to work at McDonalds.
George Washington would have made a fine Big Mac.
He probably would’ve been fired for insisting on using quarter pounder patties. Damn rebel.

neither do you or your party
some of do not have the luxury of working McDonald’s as a summer job to learn values
for some it is a fulltime job that will not pay all the bills including food and will have the workers overworked and underpaid and underappreciated and sick from lack of healthcare
get the fuck out of here saying you know what it is like to struggle Kamala
doubt she ever went to bed hungry
if the Democrats truly understood the minimum wage would be $20 or more and we would have had universal healthcare because they would have fought tooth claw and nail for the people to have it despite Republican oppositions
“There was not a family relying on me to pay the rent, put food on the table and keep the bills paid by the end of the month,” she added. “But the reality of McDonald’s is that a majority of the folk who are working there today are relying on that income to sustain a household and a family.”
her saying that does not translate to Harris or the Democrats truly understanding the plight of the US worker
the actual people making sure the country is still in operation the workers who are always forgotten by the time shareholders are paid and elections results are counted
just curious, whats your solution? you seem great at pointing out how everyone running is an ignorant piece of shit and unworthy of politics.
what, Realistically is your solution? vote 3rd party? vote for the faster path to fascism via the orange turd??
no candidates are going to be 100%, we will always be picking the best ‘running’. so, who the fuck do you think people should vote for now realistically, to get democratic ideals pushed forward?
so far youre just a whiner with zero added value.
if enough people put in enough vote to a third party then it would become a viable party
the democrats hold a carrot to their voters every election halting any form of progress
every election we get either the Republicans actively against the people or we get the Baby Steps Party that is full of enough empty promises to keep people on the treadmill
People go there to get down with the rock music.
between Harris saying she knows what it is like to struggle to telling protesters to shut up she is not becoming who thought she was at the beginning of all this
Harris advertised as some hero of the people when she first announced she was in the race and with her VP pick thought that would really seal the deal for us
but here we go again
You should go on the internet and read what’s current, as of the last 24 hours, anyway!
tl;dr:
Pausing her speech on Friday to directly address the protesters, Harris said: “I have been clear: now is the time to get a ceasefire deal and get the hostage deal done.”
baby steps, she’s not prez, yet…
forgot apologize
the Democrats are the Baby Steps Party
ready for adults steps at this point
why should any of us have to wait until our deathbeds to see progress
Now she’s making a hamberder out of Trump.
Yikes. I wouldn’t even feed that to pigs.
But Mr. Wu would feed trump to his pigs.
If she were from the east coast, we could have a “from White Castle to White House” slogan.
I’ve spent my entire life on the east coast and, to my knowledge, never been anywhere near a White Castle restaurant.
Though I would love to go to one. The frozen sandwiches are fantastic by my low standards.
