Speaker 1 (00:11):
This is a Jesse Kelly Show, The Jesse Kelly Show.
Lou Penrose sitting in for Jesse Kelly today. Good to
be with you on a Friday. Thank you for tuning in.
So a lot of discussion about Vice President Kamala Harris's
appearance on CNN last night, and everybody is sorting through
(00:32):
what she said and how she said it, and if
she changed her ways or changed her mind or changed
her values or changed her positions and all of that.
And I'll leave that to the CNN folks. What is
going on beside that, I think is a much bigger story.
(00:54):
I really do. The one thing that Americans cannot stand
in politics is a phony. So you may have heard
that Vice President Kamala Harris claims that when she was
a student, she worked at McDonald's. She's talked about it
(01:15):
a lot. It's on was on her campaign website, it's
on her bio. She's been talking about how she worked
at McDonald's and it was a summer. Well, it's never clear,
she's never clear. You can never get a straight answer
from these people. But you know she drops it as
a way to paint a picture of a humble background,
(01:39):
just like you at a work during college McDonald's, Philip
and Hamburger's right. Well, some people have been trying to
find the McDonald's and find people that worked with her,
and maybe find the manager at the time. That would
not be a bad idea, just to kind of find
out a little bit more about it. You don't know
(02:00):
anything about her. We don't know where she stands on
any issues. She does not have a record of being
this fierce prosecutor that she talks about. And as senator
she did nothing, and as Vice president she did nothing.
And now she's the Democrat nominee for president of the
United States, and all we know is what she says,
and when you press on what she says, she seems
(02:22):
to get upset. So as of today, this just happened
because people have been asking about the McDonald's story. Wait,
did you work your way through college at Howard working
at McDonald's. Did you, oh you supplemented? Yeah, okay, you
worked and helped pay some note then she said it
(02:43):
was a summer job. And there's no mention of McDonald's
on her DA application. She never mentioned it before she
started running for president. Only because she mentions it a lot.
It's not in any of her two memoirs, and it
wasn't on her bio, so people have been asking about it.
(03:05):
And now as of today, are you ready for this?
The Kamala Harris campaign has stopped referencing her job at McDonald's.
They won't respond to any more media questions about the
location of the McDonald's store or the dates of employment.
They've taken it off the campaign website. Her pack has
(03:26):
taken off references to working at McDonald's. Her campaign pack
that stands for Political Action Committee. That's a separate checking
account to raise money for the campaign. They used to
have on there that quote Vice President Harris is the
daughter of a hard working mother and worked at McDonald's
to put herself through college. That has now been removed
(03:49):
from the Harris for President pack website. According to Politico,
she said that she worked at McDonald's to help pay
her way through college. So help pay the way through
college is different than put herself through college. On the
McDonald's salary and on the campaign trail, she referenced that
(04:11):
she took the McDonald's job as quote a summer job
just to earn a bit more spending money before her
first job, like after graduation. So there's three different McDonald's stories.
One she used McDonald's to pay for the entire tuition
and room and board, and then to help defer college expenses.
(04:35):
And then the third story, she took the summer job
at McDonald's after graduating college. But then she didn't put
that as her last place of employment on the application
to the District Attorney's office in San Francisco, which for
security purpose purposes you have to do. I think you
have to reference your last employment, even if it was
(04:56):
just McDonald's. Here she this is at a campaign rally
in California where she's rallying for minimum wage increases.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
I wanted in McDonald's. I was a student when I
was working at McDonald's.
Speaker 3 (05:10):
There was not a family relying on.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
Me to pay the rent. Yeah, so there it is.
I was a student while working at McDonald's, which violates
at least one of the three stories from the three
different websites, because once she took it as a summer
job after college. Here she is on the Drew Barrymore Show.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
I did fries, did fries, and then I did the cashier,
and Kamala.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
Didn't even start talking about cooking fries until she decided
to run for president. Yeah, So I remember when I
heard that, I thought, like, you know, like when your
ears go up for a second figuratively anyway, like you
notice something and it just kind of tucks into the
back of your mind. I heard her say that, and
(05:57):
I remember at the time that doesn't sound right to me,
And I'll explain hit it again.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
I did fries, did fries, and then I did the cashier.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
So apparently, unlike Vice President Kamala Harris, I actually did
work in fast food. Now, I did not work at McDonald's.
I worked at Burger King, but we both serve fries. Now,
I don't know how they do it at McDonald's. And
(06:29):
if you worked at McDonald's or work at McDonald's, I'm
gonna tap you for some nomenclature direction here, but I
can tell you this. At Burger King, nobody works fries.
And I remember hearing her say that. It just stuck
out of my head. It stuck out in my head.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
I did.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
I did fries. Like, That's not the way it works
at Burger King. You do whoppers, or you do burgers,
or you do what we call specialty sandwiches. That's all
the things that they are constantly coming up with, the
chicken sandwiches and the Italian chicken sandwich and the Asian
chicken sandwich. Right, that's called specialty sandwiches. But effectively that's
(07:12):
all there is at Burger King is Hamburger's cheeseburgers, whoppers,
and whoppers with cheese. The Whopper Junior is just a
hamburger made up like a whopper. Now you know all
the secrets, that's right, there's only two size hamburgers and
then all the specialty stuff. Then the fries are just
on their own. Like there isn't a person that stands
(07:34):
there and watches French fries cook in oil. They'd be
nothing to do. The way it works is you take
the fries are frozen, You take a five pound bag
of fries, you drop them in this thing called a
fry basket, which is a rectangular basket, and then you
(07:55):
press a button on a computer. It automatically lowers into
the hot oil. And then when the timers that beeping
you here at McDonald's and Burger King, that's the fries.
The fries automatically come up like almost like a little
elevator out of the fry friar, and then you know,
when somebody has a minute, they grab the basket and
(08:16):
they dump it in that great big half circle bin
of French fries. And fries are scooped up to order.
So when somebody orders a hamburger and fries, the hamburgers
prepared and then you go and you scoop the fries
and you put it in the bag and you have
a nice day. So there is nobody that does fries.
(08:37):
That's why it's so strange. You know, nobody does fries.
So now it's becoming clearer and clearer that she is
phony Bologni. It's a it's a it's the this is
this could be the uh, this could be the thing
that does her in It may whether or lie about
(09:00):
being the borders are or lying about this or lying
about that. She may be able to get away with
on CNN with Dnabash, But Americans don't like a phony.
And it's becoming clearer and clearer because so many of
us have worked in that industry and we don't like it.
Eight seven seven three seven seven forty three seventy three
is the telephone number if you've worked at McDonald's and
(09:23):
can confirm for me that nobody actually does fries for
their shift. I'd like to hear from you eight seven
seven three seven seven forty three seventy three. Loup Penrose
sitting in for Jesse Kelly on The Jesse Kelly Show.
You're listening to the Oracle. Love this one. It's a
scream baby, The Jesse Kelly Show, The Jesse Kelly Show.
(09:48):
Loup Penrose sitting in for Jesse eight seven seven three
seven seven forty three seventy three. Good to have you
along with us. A poll out shows that fifty three
percent of Americans believe Kamala Harris is insincere, that she's
placating to the public and merely telling folks what they
want to hear. Two thirds believe that she does not
(10:15):
believe what she actually says. Not incredible. She's getting a
lot of heat over this McDonald's thing. And this is
the kind of thing in politics that will sink the ship.
You can get all away with a lot of whoppers,
to use a burger king term, but Americans don't like
a phony. And now it turns out that there's zero evidence.
(10:40):
Reporters are just on top of her. When did you
work at McDonald's. Which McDonald's did you work at, who
was your manager? What are the dates? So the idd
fries thing is really causing a lot of problems for
Kamala Harrison eight seven seven three seven seven forty three,
(11:11):
seventy three. Let's go to your calls. John is in Denver. John,
you're on the Jesse Kelly Show. Hello, Yes, sir, Yeah,
I'm not in Denver.
Speaker 4 (11:26):
I'm in Florida.
Speaker 5 (11:27):
You want to John be Florida or Denver?
Speaker 1 (11:30):
I want the joy. I want the John in Denver
because hang on, you know what, Let's put both John's on.
Let's go to Stacey in New Jersey. Stacey, you're on
the Jesse Kelly Show. Stacey used to work at McDonald
So this is perfect I did.
Speaker 6 (11:46):
I worked at McDonald's in nineteen seventy six and there
was it was a really very busy McDonald's and there
was a fry station and I know because I had
tons of fry burns and you would just be dumping
the fries and scooping them up.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
Okay, so you're telling me that the fries the fries
station could have been a job that Kamala Harris did
if she was at a very busy McDonald's.
Speaker 6 (12:11):
Every day you walked in, you were assigned a different station,
and you could be a shake station, a fry station,
the lobby, the cashier, the fish filet is the burger
because it was so busy that you had to keep
tons of fries in small and large. But he's up
on the thing so people could just the cashier could
just grab them when they were making filling the orders.
Speaker 1 (12:31):
Stacy, what city was this in? What city was this
was this in?
Speaker 6 (12:37):
This was in hack and Stack, New Jersey, hack and Sack.
Speaker 1 (12:40):
New Jersey. All right, say I appreciate the call. All Right,
we're piecing together here a story. Because the Harris people
won't take any more questions about McDonald's. They refuse they
have uh what's the phrase they're using here. The campaign
has stopped referencing the alleged job at McDonald's, won't respond
to media questions about the location of the McDonald's that
(13:02):
she worked at, nor will they respond to the dates
of her employment at McDonald's. McDonald's does not appear in
either of her two memoirs or on her bio as
Attorney General, but she has started talking about McDonald's since
the campaign. She said that the campaign references her humble background.
(13:25):
Her daughter was a cancer researcher and her father was
a tenured professor at Stanford, but she references a humbled background.
Vice President Harris is the daughter of a working mother
and worked at McDonald's to put herself through college. According
to the campaign, that's been scrubbed. And then in August,
she told Politico that she worked at McDonald's to pay
(13:47):
her way through college, and then aides have changed that
to say that she really took a summer job after
college eight seven seven three seven seven forty three seventy three.
As we try and piece this all together, let's go
to Susan in Michigan. Susan, you're on the Jesse Kelly show.
Speaker 7 (14:08):
Hi.
Speaker 8 (14:10):
I really hate to agree with Stacey, but I also
worked at McDonald's. It was a corporate store. Some of
them were franchises, but I worked at several actually stores
in the ann Arbor Seleeen, Michigan area when I was
I think I was fifteen or sixteen years old. So anyway,
(14:30):
I worked there for about four years. Different restaurants, worked
my way up, but there definitely was at all the
stores that I worked at shake stations, fry stations. I mean,
we were busy, and so I really don't want to
call in and say you're wrong, but it really was
a thing, Susan.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
I appreciate the call. No, I do what do you
make of all right? Well, let me just ask you.
Do you believe she worked at McDonald She's not comping
to which McDonald's and the dates of the McDonald's eight
seven seven three, seven seven forty three seventy three. Well, look,
this is all good. Intel. I am here to tell
(15:14):
you that there is no fry person at Burger King
and our fries are hot. Uh So, I guess we
just multitask a lot better at the Home of the Whopper.
Speaker 3 (15:31):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (15:31):
Now I've got I've gotta go to I've got to
go inside of McDonald I can't imagine. I can't remember
the last time I walked inside a McDonald's. I'm always
through drive through, Like, do they even have the inside
of McDonald's anymore? Since COVID, I haven't been in a Starbucks.
It was illegal in California to go inside a McDonald's
(15:52):
or a Burger King or a Starbucks. I don't know
what it was like where you lived. But uh, yeah,
I don't know the last time I stepped inside a
restaurant because I'm just a bit a customed acculturated now
to not even attempt it. But now I've got to look,
because you're right, the fry. The fries are on the
(16:16):
cashier side of the equation, at least that's where they
are at burger king, And so the person taking the
order at the cash register is usually the one that
turns around, scoops up the small fry, grabs the whopper
with cheese, or the big mac puts it in the
bag and boom, you're out the door. So i'd never
(16:36):
seen a fry person on McDonald's. I've never seen a
fried person. And I know there is no fry person
at a burger king. And we were busy. We were
a busy burger king. For those of you listening on
wo R in New York. I worked at the burger
King on Long Island. And you go to a burger
king on Long Island on a hot summer Saturday, and
(16:59):
let me tell you, drive through was wrapped around, and
the lobby was filled with people. It was a busy
burger king, and there was nobody. The person that did
the fries was the same person making your hamburger or
your whopper with cheese, and the fries were hot. Luke
Penro sitting here for Jesse Kelly on the Jesse Kelly Show.
I've got on an Emily said, don't mean says Jesse Kelly.
(17:23):
You're listening to the Jesse Kelly Show.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
I did fries, did fries, and then I did the
cashire and Conalla.
Speaker 1 (17:32):
Didn't even start talking about cooking fries until she decided
to run for president. There was no mention of McDonald's
and both of her memoirs, and so far all reporters
looking into it have found no evidence. The Jesse Kelly
Show Louke Penrose sitting in for Jesse Kelly eight seven
seven three seven seven forty three seventy three. If you
want to get in on this, the McDonald's story is
(17:55):
the one that's going to cause her problems if this
isn't one hundred percent accurate because of Americans don't like
a phony. The Kamala Harris campaign has stopped referring to
her job at McDonald's, won't respond to media questions about
the location of the store, and the dates of her employment.
The McDonald's story is a new one. It didn't come
(18:17):
up in her two memoirs and was never on any
application eight seven seven three seven seven forty three, seventy three.
I just think it's fascinating the kinds of things that,
the kinds of the lie that actually trips up a politician. Right,
(18:38):
she probably thought she could get away with saying anything.
And while she has told some whoppers, this one, because
that's interesting. I don't know that we've had a presidential
candidate that ever worked service work like fast food. So
(19:02):
that's a unique story. So why wouldn't a human interest
story reporter follow up and find her co workers at
the McDonald's And no one can find any evidence of it.
All right, let's go to Let's go to Paul in Oregon. Paul,
you're on the Jesse Kelly Show.
Speaker 4 (19:21):
Yes, Hi there, Hey, two things.
Speaker 3 (19:24):
I started. I'm an old guy. I started at McDonald's
when I was in high school in the nineteen sixties,
and at that time it was we had to make
our own fries.
Speaker 5 (19:35):
Became a station.
Speaker 3 (19:37):
But then in the nineteen seventies, McDonald's went to the
automated system that you describe at there were a whopper
so they didn't have any stations. But more important is
I think we're missing a bigger picture. I had to
work my way through college, and I try to do
it by working at McDonald's. But they pay minimum wage
(19:58):
and you can only work twenty maybe thirty hours because
they didn't want to pay benefits. You can't survive at
McDonald's to pay for school, especially California tuition. So I
really questioned that she even worked there at all to
support yourself.
Speaker 1 (20:13):
Yeah, Paul, I appreciate the call. You bring up a
good point. Here's this is from the campaign website. It's
now been scrubbed. Vice President Harris is the daughter of
a working mother and worked at a McDonald's to put
herself through college. That's an embellishment. I think. I think
Paul's onto something right. I remember that they wouldn't schedule.
(20:34):
You didn't work an eight hour day. I mean you
would work. You would work a couple of hours. You
couldn't work forty hours a week. If you were a student,
you would work the dinner shift or the lunch shift,
depending on your college classes, and then they would put
you on an eight hour shift on a weekend, so
there's yeah, there's no way she put herself through college,
(20:57):
so that's a little bit of an embellishment. But they
then they changed it and they said that she helped
pay for her college expenses. But then they found another
video where she said that she took it as a
summer job. So there's no way you could just work
two months in the summer and pay for college. Good
good call there, Paul eight seven seven three seven seven
(21:18):
forty three seventy three. You're not the first or the
second or the third person whose mind was blown when
I told everybody that a Whopper Junior is just a hamburger?
Why is that? Was that such a mind blowing revelation.
I don't want to give it away. I know it's
(21:39):
magical to go to these stores and look at that
menu and say, wow, look at all those choices, but
they're all just variations on the same one or two things.
Back there, Yeah, a Whopper Junior is just a hamburger.
It's not like a separate thing. It's a hamburger. And
then they dress it like they would a whopper, and
(21:59):
it's that's it. No hocus focus whatsoever. Robert is in Virginia, Robert,
you're on the Jesse Kelly show.
Speaker 9 (22:08):
Okay, Burger King, and I was the fry guy at
Burger King, And the reason you had to stand at
the station to keep the fries going was because you
were also responsible for the chicken sandwiches and the fish sandwiches.
So we had a man post at the fry station.
But talking all my buddies who worked at McDonald's, they
(22:30):
would say, well, the fry station was always set up
next to the drive through window, and the bagger for
the window watched the fry machine, which also faced the
sandwich station. So the assistant sandwich maker and the bagger
for the window would watch over the fry station. And
(22:51):
now between Burger Kings and McDonald's as far as working
the fries, so I did the summer of eighty eight
when I was in high school, and I figured she's
a couple of years older than me, so you know,
if she worked at McDonald's, maybe she was a bagger
who watched the fries. Not defending her, but that's how
it was in the eighties when I worked at Burger
(23:14):
King and would hang out with my friends from McDonald's.
Speaker 1 (23:18):
All right, Robert, I appreciate the call. You may be
onto something. We may be on the on the cusp
of a technological breakthrough, because you're right. When I worked
at Burger King, the fries automatically went down, as did
the chicken. By the way, another little secret, the hash
browns go in the same oil that your chicken sandwiches
going as do your fish filet. Yeah, it's not the
(23:46):
it's not complicated back there, But nevertheless, right before the
technology allowed the computer to drop the fries on their
own and the timer would lift the fries out, maybe
there was maybe maybe she worked at an antiquated McDonald's.
That would be an interesting twist if she worked for
mc Why yes, why did they take it off the website?
Speaker 5 (24:08):
Then?
Speaker 1 (24:08):
That's and why won't they answer any more questions about it?
And why is asking about this story some kind of
a right wing attempt to throw her off the subject?
That's what I love that. It's not enough that they
took it off the website and are no longer referring
to it. They're mad at media for insisting on asking
questions about the location of the McDonald's. Yeah, right, Why uh?
(24:33):
Why do they no longer want to talk about it?
That's all I want to talk about now eight seven
seven three seven seven forty three seventy three. Let us
go to is it? Uh? Put them Pat in Washington, Pat,
you're on the Jesse Kelly show.
Speaker 5 (24:52):
Hi. I think it's her commoner I think it's her
commoner attempt at stolen valor vice president. She's trying to
endear herself to the commoners that had to work at
McDonald's to get herself through school.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
Yeah, Pat, I appreciate the call. I think that's exactly right.
And that is the unkindest cut of all. Like, that's
phony baloney. Nobody likes that. And if you get that
stink on you, there's no way of you washing it off.
There's nothing worse than a phony. And it can be
(25:31):
this simple. But you're right, it is stolen valor because
there's a sense those of us that have done that
level of work, right, there's a sense of accomplishment. If
you did a couple of summers at a burger King,
or did a couple of semesters out of McDonald's after
(25:53):
school or Harty's or Wendy's or Jack in the Box,
whatever it is you worked with the public, you had
to work fast, your boss was probably an ogre or
he was the most inspiring person you've ever met, and
your friend's probably made fun of you. But you got
(26:16):
a real sense of how to work with the public
and a tremendous sense of responsibility. And at the time,
I was making more money than my mother. I was
making pretty good money. I mean, I don't know what
minimum wage was then, but I remember my paychecks were
like one hundred and seventy two dollars every two weeks,
and one hundred and seventy two dollars to like a
(26:36):
high school kid in the eighties. That was decent money.
I bought my own Atari games. I don't have to
wait for Christmas. I don't have to wait for my birthday.
I just took my money and went down to the
store and bought the latest pac Man or Asteroids with
my own money, and it was mine. Thank you, Burger King.
Louke Penrose sitting here for Jesse Kelly on The Jesse
(26:58):
Kelly Show. What Chris we can make jokes? It's fine,
you got that right, The Jesse Kelly Show. The Jesse
Kelly Show. Louke Penrose sitting in for Jesse Kelly. Could
to be with you on a Friday as we head
into a holiday weekend. I am looking forward to this one.
It's been a long time. It feels like it's been
(27:20):
quite a while. August is the only month out of
the year where there isn't at least one three day
weekend within the month, So we're overdue. Eight seven seven
three seven seven forty three seventy three. Talking about Kamala
Harris's campaign, they have scrubbed from the campaign website references
to her job at McDonald's because a lot of reporters
(27:43):
are asking questions like where was the McDonald's and when
did you work at McDonald's because there's some confusion. Did
you work throughout your four years of university or just
in the summer. We're all interesting acquiring mindes want to know.
Let's go to Chuck in Wisconsin. Chuck, you're on a
(28:06):
Jesse Kelly show.
Speaker 4 (28:09):
Yes, I worked at McDonald's for a little over two years,
and yes there is definitely a fries station and I
did work at it. But the thing about McDonald's is,
and the reason I doubt that she worked there, is
all the employees are trained in all the different positions,
working until cooking behind the grill, cleaning the dining area.
(28:35):
I guess you name it that. It's McDonald's. People call
in sick, there's no shows, so there's there's a need
for you to know every job, not just one cooking
French fries. And I also kind of find it unusual
that there's not one former employee or manager that has
(28:59):
gone public and said yes, I remember her. I worked
with her. She was a very nice person, so I
don't think she worked at McDonald's.
Speaker 1 (29:08):
Chuck. I appreciate the call. I agree with you. It's
funny when I thought about talking about this today, and
this was before the news came out that the campaign
was no longer referencing and no longer taking media questions
about the location of the store and the dates. And
when I heard that, I'm like, oh, we're definitely talking
(29:28):
about this. We're absolutely talking about this, because that means
she's a phony. But before I had heard that update,
I reached out on Facebook to a former co worker
of mine at Burger King, Like, I believe it or not,
I am still at least Facebook friends. I mean not
like we're best friends, we go out to dinner all
(29:50):
the time, but I know people to this day, and it.
Trust me, if I was running for president of the
United States, you'd be able to find people that many
people that worked with me at Burger King. And so
I'm beginning to think that she didn't work there very long,
(30:10):
which that is an embellishment. I think that she could
probably get away with like you wait, wait, wait, because
what do you mean you only work fries that's the
only you never ever ever put together a big macnt once.
Yet the McDonald's career funded your college education. That seems unlikely.
(30:32):
And if she's never gotten past fries, I don't know
that she's really capable of learning how to be president
of the United States. So there's a couple of pieces
missing from the story. Jim is in Pennsylvania. Jim, you're
on the Jesse Kelly show.
Speaker 3 (30:50):
Way Man, what's up?
Speaker 1 (30:51):
How you doing?
Speaker 7 (30:53):
Okay? I got a appreciates conspiracy theory.
Speaker 1 (30:58):
I love it.
Speaker 7 (30:58):
There's a movie from to A He's called Coming to
America YEP, where Louis Anderson's washing Lettuce and his goal
was to move up the fries. So guys start checking
with mc donalds and call McDowell's.
Speaker 1 (31:12):
Call McDowell's on Queen's boulevard. Jim, I appreciate the call.
I love it. Yes, McDowell's. That's where you start with
rinsing the lettuce and you move up to fries. She
jumped right over. If she worked at McDowell's, she would
have at least accomplished the lettuce rinsing and moved up
(31:32):
the fries like Louis Anderson. There you go. Oh my goodness,
see a well traveled audience on the Jesse Kelly Show
eight seven seven three seven seven forty three seventy three.
We will continue to follow this down because I just
I think that this campaign clearly now has parked its
(31:57):
car in a parking spot of problems. They have believability problems,
because this isn't the first time, the second time, or
the third time that Vice President Harris and now her
running mate Tim Waltz have had problems explaining what they
meant accurately. What did he say about carrying weapons in war?
(32:22):
He said that his wife told him that he uses
grammar incorrectly. What does that mean? So that's a problem,
and it's not going to go away just because you
demand that the press stop asking that question. And the
governor of Minnesota's got a lot of problems with respect
(32:43):
to accuracy and dates. And I suspect if Kamala Harris
is fast and loose with the truth about, you know,
the McDonald's thing, then there's probably a lot more that
she's not getting that she's not being straight about. And
as I said at the end of the day, a
Memeora prikans loathe of phony. And that's what it's starting
(33:04):
to sound like, at least with respect to the McDonald's story.
I'm sure there's a lot more that goes into well, look,
I mean, look at the way what was the campaign
website characterization that she was raised by a single mom. Yeah,
Vice President Harris, daughter of a working mother. Right, She
was a college professor and a cancer researcher at a
(33:26):
major university, and her father was a tenured professor at Stanford.
I mean, these are they work. These are working people,
no question about it. Being a professor is certainly not
a nothing job. But you're not broke, that's for sure.
My son is a sophomore in high school, and so
(33:49):
I've peaked at what tuition is at Stanford, So I
can only imagine her father was a tenured professor at Stanford.
In the Department of Economics, and he was a mark
exist at that, but nevertheless he's still a professor. He
was pulling down some decent change, and with two working
professors at major universities, she probably did not need to
(34:10):
work at McDonald's. So I'm thinking that she may have
just thrown that in there just for a little bit
of fun. What do you know about that? All right,
good stuff. We got more to get to as we
continue along on the Jesse Kelly Show. Lou Penrose sitting
in for Jesse Kelly
This is a Jesse Kelly Show, The Jesse Kelly Show.
Lou Penrose sitting in for Jesse Kelly today. Good to
be with you on a Friday. Thank you for tuning in.
So a lot of discussion about Vice President Kamala Harris's
appearance on CNN last night, and everybody is sorting through
(00:32):
what she said and how she said it, and if
she changed her ways or changed her mind or changed
her values or changed her positions and all of that.
And I'll leave that to the CNN folks. What is
going on beside that, I think is a much bigger story.
(00:54):
I really do. The one thing that Americans cannot stand
in politics is a phony. So you may have heard
that Vice President Kamala Harris claims that when she was
a student, she worked at McDonald's. She's talked about it
(01:15):
a lot. It's on was on her campaign website, it's
on her bio. She's been talking about how she worked
at McDonald's and it was a summer. Well, it's never clear,
she's never clear. You can never get a straight answer
from these people. But you know she drops it as
a way to paint a picture of a humble background,
(01:39):
just like you at a work during college McDonald's, Philip
and Hamburger's right. Well, some people have been trying to
find the McDonald's and find people that worked with her,
and maybe find the manager at the time. That would
not be a bad idea, just to kind of find
out a little bit more about it. You don't know
(02:00):
anything about her. We don't know where she stands on
any issues. She does not have a record of being
this fierce prosecutor that she talks about. And as senator
she did nothing, and as Vice president she did nothing.
And now she's the Democrat nominee for president of the
United States, and all we know is what she says,
and when you press on what she says, she seems
(02:22):
to get upset. So as of today, this just happened
because people have been asking about the McDonald's story. Wait,
did you work your way through college at Howard working
at McDonald's. Did you, oh you supplemented? Yeah, okay, you
worked and helped pay some note then she said it
(02:43):
was a summer job. And there's no mention of McDonald's
on her DA application. She never mentioned it before she
started running for president. Only because she mentions it a lot.
It's not in any of her two memoirs, and it
wasn't on her bio, so people have been asking about it.
(03:05):
And now as of today, are you ready for this?
The Kamala Harris campaign has stopped referencing her job at McDonald's.
They won't respond to any more media questions about the
location of the McDonald's store or the dates of employment.
They've taken it off the campaign website. Her pack has
(03:26):
taken off references to working at McDonald's. Her campaign pack
that stands for Political Action Committee. That's a separate checking
account to raise money for the campaign. They used to
have on there that quote Vice President Harris is the
daughter of a hard working mother and worked at McDonald's
to put herself through college. That has now been removed
(03:49):
from the Harris for President pack website. According to Politico,
she said that she worked at McDonald's to help pay
her way through college. So help pay the way through
college is different than put herself through college. On the
McDonald's salary and on the campaign trail, she referenced that
(04:11):
she took the McDonald's job as quote a summer job
just to earn a bit more spending money before her
first job, like after graduation. So there's three different McDonald's stories.
One she used McDonald's to pay for the entire tuition
and room and board, and then to help defer college expenses.
(04:35):
And then the third story, she took the summer job
at McDonald's after graduating college. But then she didn't put
that as her last place of employment on the application
to the District Attorney's office in San Francisco, which for
security purpose purposes you have to do. I think you
have to reference your last employment, even if it was
(04:56):
just McDonald's. Here she this is at a campaign rally
in California where she's rallying for minimum wage increases.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
I wanted in McDonald's. I was a student when I
was working at McDonald's.
Speaker 3 (05:10):
There was not a family relying on.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
Me to pay the rent. Yeah, so there it is.
I was a student while working at McDonald's, which violates
at least one of the three stories from the three
different websites, because once she took it as a summer
job after college. Here she is on the Drew Barrymore Show.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
I did fries, did fries, and then I did the cashier,
and Kamala.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
Didn't even start talking about cooking fries until she decided
to run for president. Yeah, So I remember when I
heard that, I thought, like, you know, like when your
ears go up for a second figuratively anyway, like you
notice something and it just kind of tucks into the
back of your mind. I heard her say that, and
(05:57):
I remember at the time that doesn't sound right to me,
And I'll explain hit it again.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
I did fries, did fries, and then I did the cashier.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
So apparently, unlike Vice President Kamala Harris, I actually did
work in fast food. Now, I did not work at McDonald's.
I worked at Burger King, but we both serve fries. Now,
I don't know how they do it at McDonald's. And
(06:29):
if you worked at McDonald's or work at McDonald's, I'm
gonna tap you for some nomenclature direction here, but I
can tell you this. At Burger King, nobody works fries.
And I remember hearing her say that. It just stuck
out of my head. It stuck out in my head.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
I did.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
I did fries. Like, That's not the way it works
at Burger King. You do whoppers, or you do burgers,
or you do what we call specialty sandwiches. That's all
the things that they are constantly coming up with, the
chicken sandwiches and the Italian chicken sandwich and the Asian
chicken sandwich. Right, that's called specialty sandwiches. But effectively that's
(07:12):
all there is at Burger King is Hamburger's cheeseburgers, whoppers,
and whoppers with cheese. The Whopper Junior is just a
hamburger made up like a whopper. Now you know all
the secrets, that's right, there's only two size hamburgers and
then all the specialty stuff. Then the fries are just
on their own. Like there isn't a person that stands
(07:34):
there and watches French fries cook in oil. They'd be
nothing to do. The way it works is you take
the fries are frozen, You take a five pound bag
of fries, you drop them in this thing called a
fry basket, which is a rectangular basket, and then you
(07:55):
press a button on a computer. It automatically lowers into
the hot oil. And then when the timers that beeping
you here at McDonald's and Burger King, that's the fries.
The fries automatically come up like almost like a little
elevator out of the fry friar, and then you know,
when somebody has a minute, they grab the basket and
(08:16):
they dump it in that great big half circle bin
of French fries. And fries are scooped up to order.
So when somebody orders a hamburger and fries, the hamburgers
prepared and then you go and you scoop the fries
and you put it in the bag and you have
a nice day. So there is nobody that does fries.
(08:37):
That's why it's so strange. You know, nobody does fries.
So now it's becoming clearer and clearer that she is
phony Bologni. It's a it's a it's the this is
this could be the uh, this could be the thing
that does her in It may whether or lie about
(09:00):
being the borders are or lying about this or lying
about that. She may be able to get away with
on CNN with Dnabash, But Americans don't like a phony.
And it's becoming clearer and clearer because so many of
us have worked in that industry and we don't like it.
Eight seven seven three seven seven forty three seventy three
is the telephone number if you've worked at McDonald's and
(09:23):
can confirm for me that nobody actually does fries for
their shift. I'd like to hear from you eight seven
seven three seven seven forty three seventy three. Loup Penrose
sitting in for Jesse Kelly on The Jesse Kelly Show.
You're listening to the Oracle. Love this one. It's a
scream baby, The Jesse Kelly Show, The Jesse Kelly Show.
(09:48):
Loup Penrose sitting in for Jesse eight seven seven three
seven seven forty three seventy three. Good to have you
along with us. A poll out shows that fifty three
percent of Americans believe Kamala Harris is insincere, that she's
placating to the public and merely telling folks what they
want to hear. Two thirds believe that she does not
(10:15):
believe what she actually says. Not incredible. She's getting a
lot of heat over this McDonald's thing. And this is
the kind of thing in politics that will sink the ship.
You can get all away with a lot of whoppers,
to use a burger king term, but Americans don't like
a phony. And now it turns out that there's zero evidence.
(10:40):
Reporters are just on top of her. When did you
work at McDonald's. Which McDonald's did you work at, who
was your manager? What are the dates? So the idd
fries thing is really causing a lot of problems for
Kamala Harrison eight seven seven three seven seven forty three,
(11:11):
seventy three. Let's go to your calls. John is in Denver. John,
you're on the Jesse Kelly Show. Hello, Yes, sir, Yeah,
I'm not in Denver.
Speaker 4 (11:26):
I'm in Florida.
Speaker 5 (11:27):
You want to John be Florida or Denver?
Speaker 1 (11:30):
I want the joy. I want the John in Denver
because hang on, you know what, Let's put both John's on.
Let's go to Stacey in New Jersey. Stacey, you're on
the Jesse Kelly Show. Stacey used to work at McDonald
So this is perfect I did.
Speaker 6 (11:46):
I worked at McDonald's in nineteen seventy six and there
was it was a really very busy McDonald's and there
was a fry station and I know because I had
tons of fry burns and you would just be dumping
the fries and scooping them up.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
Okay, so you're telling me that the fries the fries
station could have been a job that Kamala Harris did
if she was at a very busy McDonald's.
Speaker 6 (12:11):
Every day you walked in, you were assigned a different station,
and you could be a shake station, a fry station,
the lobby, the cashier, the fish filet is the burger
because it was so busy that you had to keep
tons of fries in small and large. But he's up
on the thing so people could just the cashier could
just grab them when they were making filling the orders.
Speaker 1 (12:31):
Stacy, what city was this in? What city was this
was this in?
Speaker 6 (12:37):
This was in hack and Stack, New Jersey, hack and Sack.
Speaker 1 (12:40):
New Jersey. All right, say I appreciate the call. All Right,
we're piecing together here a story. Because the Harris people
won't take any more questions about McDonald's. They refuse they
have uh what's the phrase they're using here. The campaign
has stopped referencing the alleged job at McDonald's, won't respond
to media questions about the location of the McDonald's that
(13:02):
she worked at, nor will they respond to the dates
of her employment at McDonald's. McDonald's does not appear in
either of her two memoirs or on her bio as
Attorney General, but she has started talking about McDonald's since
the campaign. She said that the campaign references her humble background.
(13:25):
Her daughter was a cancer researcher and her father was
a tenured professor at Stanford, but she references a humbled background.
Vice President Harris is the daughter of a working mother
and worked at McDonald's to put herself through college. According
to the campaign, that's been scrubbed. And then in August,
she told Politico that she worked at McDonald's to pay
(13:47):
her way through college, and then aides have changed that
to say that she really took a summer job after
college eight seven seven three seven seven forty three seventy three.
As we try and piece this all together, let's go
to Susan in Michigan. Susan, you're on the Jesse Kelly show.
Speaker 7 (14:08):
Hi.
Speaker 8 (14:10):
I really hate to agree with Stacey, but I also
worked at McDonald's. It was a corporate store. Some of
them were franchises, but I worked at several actually stores
in the ann Arbor Seleeen, Michigan area when I was
I think I was fifteen or sixteen years old. So anyway,
(14:30):
I worked there for about four years. Different restaurants, worked
my way up, but there definitely was at all the
stores that I worked at shake stations, fry stations. I mean,
we were busy, and so I really don't want to
call in and say you're wrong, but it really was
a thing, Susan.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
I appreciate the call. No, I do what do you
make of all right? Well, let me just ask you.
Do you believe she worked at McDonald She's not comping
to which McDonald's and the dates of the McDonald's eight
seven seven three, seven seven forty three seventy three. Well, look,
this is all good. Intel. I am here to tell
(15:14):
you that there is no fry person at Burger King
and our fries are hot. Uh So, I guess we
just multitask a lot better at the Home of the Whopper.
Speaker 3 (15:31):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (15:31):
Now I've got I've gotta go to I've got to
go inside of McDonald I can't imagine. I can't remember
the last time I walked inside a McDonald's. I'm always
through drive through, Like, do they even have the inside
of McDonald's anymore? Since COVID, I haven't been in a Starbucks.
It was illegal in California to go inside a McDonald's
(15:52):
or a Burger King or a Starbucks. I don't know
what it was like where you lived. But uh, yeah,
I don't know the last time I stepped inside a
restaurant because I'm just a bit a customed acculturated now
to not even attempt it. But now I've got to look,
because you're right, the fry. The fries are on the
(16:16):
cashier side of the equation, at least that's where they
are at burger king, And so the person taking the
order at the cash register is usually the one that
turns around, scoops up the small fry, grabs the whopper
with cheese, or the big mac puts it in the
bag and boom, you're out the door. So i'd never
(16:36):
seen a fry person on McDonald's. I've never seen a
fried person. And I know there is no fry person
at a burger king. And we were busy. We were
a busy burger king. For those of you listening on
wo R in New York. I worked at the burger
King on Long Island. And you go to a burger
king on Long Island on a hot summer Saturday, and
(16:59):
let me tell you, drive through was wrapped around, and
the lobby was filled with people. It was a busy
burger king, and there was nobody. The person that did
the fries was the same person making your hamburger or
your whopper with cheese, and the fries were hot. Luke
Penro sitting here for Jesse Kelly on the Jesse Kelly Show.
I've got on an Emily said, don't mean says Jesse Kelly.
(17:23):
You're listening to the Jesse Kelly Show.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
I did fries, did fries, and then I did the
cashire and Conalla.
Speaker 1 (17:32):
Didn't even start talking about cooking fries until she decided
to run for president. There was no mention of McDonald's
and both of her memoirs, and so far all reporters
looking into it have found no evidence. The Jesse Kelly
Show Louke Penrose sitting in for Jesse Kelly eight seven
seven three seven seven forty three seventy three. If you
want to get in on this, the McDonald's story is
(17:55):
the one that's going to cause her problems if this
isn't one hundred percent accurate because of Americans don't like
a phony. The Kamala Harris campaign has stopped referring to
her job at McDonald's, won't respond to media questions about
the location of the store, and the dates of her employment.
The McDonald's story is a new one. It didn't come
(18:17):
up in her two memoirs and was never on any
application eight seven seven three seven seven forty three, seventy three.
I just think it's fascinating the kinds of things that,
the kinds of the lie that actually trips up a politician. Right,
(18:38):
she probably thought she could get away with saying anything.
And while she has told some whoppers, this one, because
that's interesting. I don't know that we've had a presidential
candidate that ever worked service work like fast food. So
(19:02):
that's a unique story. So why wouldn't a human interest
story reporter follow up and find her co workers at
the McDonald's And no one can find any evidence of it.
All right, let's go to Let's go to Paul in Oregon. Paul,
you're on the Jesse Kelly Show.
Speaker 4 (19:21):
Yes, Hi there, Hey, two things.
Speaker 3 (19:24):
I started. I'm an old guy. I started at McDonald's
when I was in high school in the nineteen sixties,
and at that time it was we had to make
our own fries.
Speaker 5 (19:35):
Became a station.
Speaker 3 (19:37):
But then in the nineteen seventies, McDonald's went to the
automated system that you describe at there were a whopper
so they didn't have any stations. But more important is
I think we're missing a bigger picture. I had to
work my way through college, and I try to do
it by working at McDonald's. But they pay minimum wage
(19:58):
and you can only work twenty maybe thirty hours because
they didn't want to pay benefits. You can't survive at
McDonald's to pay for school, especially California tuition. So I
really questioned that she even worked there at all to
support yourself.
Speaker 1 (20:13):
Yeah, Paul, I appreciate the call. You bring up a
good point. Here's this is from the campaign website. It's
now been scrubbed. Vice President Harris is the daughter of
a working mother and worked at a McDonald's to put
herself through college. That's an embellishment. I think. I think
Paul's onto something right. I remember that they wouldn't schedule.
(20:34):
You didn't work an eight hour day. I mean you
would work. You would work a couple of hours. You
couldn't work forty hours a week. If you were a student,
you would work the dinner shift or the lunch shift,
depending on your college classes, and then they would put
you on an eight hour shift on a weekend, so
there's yeah, there's no way she put herself through college,
(20:57):
so that's a little bit of an embellishment. But they
then they changed it and they said that she helped
pay for her college expenses. But then they found another
video where she said that she took it as a
summer job. So there's no way you could just work
two months in the summer and pay for college. Good
good call there, Paul eight seven seven three seven seven
(21:18):
forty three seventy three. You're not the first or the
second or the third person whose mind was blown when
I told everybody that a Whopper Junior is just a hamburger?
Why is that? Was that such a mind blowing revelation.
I don't want to give it away. I know it's
(21:39):
magical to go to these stores and look at that
menu and say, wow, look at all those choices, but
they're all just variations on the same one or two things.
Back there, Yeah, a Whopper Junior is just a hamburger.
It's not like a separate thing. It's a hamburger. And
then they dress it like they would a whopper, and
(21:59):
it's that's it. No hocus focus whatsoever. Robert is in Virginia, Robert,
you're on the Jesse Kelly show.
Speaker 9 (22:08):
Okay, Burger King, and I was the fry guy at
Burger King, And the reason you had to stand at
the station to keep the fries going was because you
were also responsible for the chicken sandwiches and the fish sandwiches.
So we had a man post at the fry station.
But talking all my buddies who worked at McDonald's, they
(22:30):
would say, well, the fry station was always set up
next to the drive through window, and the bagger for
the window watched the fry machine, which also faced the
sandwich station. So the assistant sandwich maker and the bagger
for the window would watch over the fry station. And
(22:51):
now between Burger Kings and McDonald's as far as working
the fries, so I did the summer of eighty eight
when I was in high school, and I figured she's
a couple of years older than me, so you know,
if she worked at McDonald's, maybe she was a bagger
who watched the fries. Not defending her, but that's how
it was in the eighties when I worked at Burger
(23:14):
King and would hang out with my friends from McDonald's.
Speaker 1 (23:18):
All right, Robert, I appreciate the call. You may be
onto something. We may be on the on the cusp
of a technological breakthrough, because you're right. When I worked
at Burger King, the fries automatically went down, as did
the chicken. By the way, another little secret, the hash
browns go in the same oil that your chicken sandwiches
going as do your fish filet. Yeah, it's not the
(23:46):
it's not complicated back there, But nevertheless, right before the
technology allowed the computer to drop the fries on their
own and the timer would lift the fries out, maybe
there was maybe maybe she worked at an antiquated McDonald's.
That would be an interesting twist if she worked for
mc Why yes, why did they take it off the website?
Speaker 5 (24:08):
Then?
Speaker 1 (24:08):
That's and why won't they answer any more questions about it?
And why is asking about this story some kind of
a right wing attempt to throw her off the subject?
That's what I love that. It's not enough that they
took it off the website and are no longer referring
to it. They're mad at media for insisting on asking
questions about the location of the McDonald's. Yeah, right, Why uh?
(24:33):
Why do they no longer want to talk about it?
That's all I want to talk about now eight seven
seven three seven seven forty three seventy three. Let us
go to is it? Uh? Put them Pat in Washington, Pat,
you're on the Jesse Kelly show.
Speaker 5 (24:52):
Hi. I think it's her commoner I think it's her
commoner attempt at stolen valor vice president. She's trying to
endear herself to the commoners that had to work at
McDonald's to get herself through school.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
Yeah, Pat, I appreciate the call. I think that's exactly right.
And that is the unkindest cut of all. Like, that's
phony baloney. Nobody likes that. And if you get that
stink on you, there's no way of you washing it off.
There's nothing worse than a phony. And it can be
(25:31):
this simple. But you're right, it is stolen valor because
there's a sense those of us that have done that
level of work, right, there's a sense of accomplishment. If
you did a couple of summers at a burger King,
or did a couple of semesters out of McDonald's after
(25:53):
school or Harty's or Wendy's or Jack in the Box,
whatever it is you worked with the public, you had
to work fast, your boss was probably an ogre or
he was the most inspiring person you've ever met, and
your friend's probably made fun of you. But you got
(26:16):
a real sense of how to work with the public
and a tremendous sense of responsibility. And at the time,
I was making more money than my mother. I was
making pretty good money. I mean, I don't know what
minimum wage was then, but I remember my paychecks were
like one hundred and seventy two dollars every two weeks,
and one hundred and seventy two dollars to like a
(26:36):
high school kid in the eighties. That was decent money.
I bought my own Atari games. I don't have to
wait for Christmas. I don't have to wait for my birthday.
I just took my money and went down to the
store and bought the latest pac Man or Asteroids with
my own money, and it was mine. Thank you, Burger King.
Louke Penrose sitting here for Jesse Kelly on The Jesse
(26:58):
Kelly Show. What Chris we can make jokes? It's fine,
you got that right, The Jesse Kelly Show. The Jesse
Kelly Show. Louke Penrose sitting in for Jesse Kelly. Could
to be with you on a Friday as we head
into a holiday weekend. I am looking forward to this one.
It's been a long time. It feels like it's been
(27:20):
quite a while. August is the only month out of
the year where there isn't at least one three day
weekend within the month, So we're overdue. Eight seven seven
three seven seven forty three seventy three. Talking about Kamala
Harris's campaign, they have scrubbed from the campaign website references
to her job at McDonald's because a lot of reporters
(27:43):
are asking questions like where was the McDonald's and when
did you work at McDonald's because there's some confusion. Did
you work throughout your four years of university or just
in the summer. We're all interesting acquiring mindes want to know.
Let's go to Chuck in Wisconsin. Chuck, you're on a
(28:06):
Jesse Kelly show.
Speaker 4 (28:09):
Yes, I worked at McDonald's for a little over two years,
and yes there is definitely a fries station and I
did work at it. But the thing about McDonald's is,
and the reason I doubt that she worked there, is
all the employees are trained in all the different positions,
working until cooking behind the grill, cleaning the dining area.
(28:35):
I guess you name it that. It's McDonald's. People call
in sick, there's no shows, so there's there's a need
for you to know every job, not just one cooking
French fries. And I also kind of find it unusual
that there's not one former employee or manager that has
(28:59):
gone public and said yes, I remember her. I worked
with her. She was a very nice person, so I
don't think she worked at McDonald's.
Speaker 1 (29:08):
Chuck. I appreciate the call. I agree with you. It's
funny when I thought about talking about this today, and
this was before the news came out that the campaign
was no longer referencing and no longer taking media questions
about the location of the store and the dates. And
when I heard that, I'm like, oh, we're definitely talking
(29:28):
about this. We're absolutely talking about this, because that means
she's a phony. But before I had heard that update,
I reached out on Facebook to a former co worker
of mine at Burger King, Like, I believe it or not,
I am still at least Facebook friends. I mean not
like we're best friends, we go out to dinner all
(29:50):
the time, but I know people to this day, and it.
Trust me, if I was running for president of the
United States, you'd be able to find people that many
people that worked with me at Burger King. And so
I'm beginning to think that she didn't work there very long,
(30:10):
which that is an embellishment. I think that she could
probably get away with like you wait, wait, wait, because
what do you mean you only work fries that's the
only you never ever ever put together a big macnt once.
Yet the McDonald's career funded your college education. That seems unlikely.
(30:32):
And if she's never gotten past fries, I don't know
that she's really capable of learning how to be president
of the United States. So there's a couple of pieces
missing from the story. Jim is in Pennsylvania. Jim, you're
on the Jesse Kelly show.
Speaker 3 (30:50):
Way Man, what's up?
Speaker 1 (30:51):
How you doing?
Speaker 7 (30:53):
Okay? I got a appreciates conspiracy theory.
Speaker 1 (30:58):
I love it.
Speaker 7 (30:58):
There's a movie from to A He's called Coming to
America YEP, where Louis Anderson's washing Lettuce and his goal
was to move up the fries. So guys start checking
with mc donalds and call McDowell's.
Speaker 1 (31:12):
Call McDowell's on Queen's boulevard. Jim, I appreciate the call.
I love it. Yes, McDowell's. That's where you start with
rinsing the lettuce and you move up to fries. She
jumped right over. If she worked at McDowell's, she would
have at least accomplished the lettuce rinsing and moved up
(31:32):
the fries like Louis Anderson. There you go. Oh my goodness,
see a well traveled audience on the Jesse Kelly Show
eight seven seven three seven seven forty three seventy three.
We will continue to follow this down because I just
I think that this campaign clearly now has parked its
(31:57):
car in a parking spot of problems. They have believability problems,
because this isn't the first time, the second time, or
the third time that Vice President Harris and now her
running mate Tim Waltz have had problems explaining what they
meant accurately. What did he say about carrying weapons in war?
(32:22):
He said that his wife told him that he uses
grammar incorrectly. What does that mean? So that's a problem,
and it's not going to go away just because you
demand that the press stop asking that question. And the
governor of Minnesota's got a lot of problems with respect
(32:43):
to accuracy and dates. And I suspect if Kamala Harris
is fast and loose with the truth about, you know,
the McDonald's thing, then there's probably a lot more that
she's not getting that she's not being straight about. And
as I said at the end of the day, a
Memeora prikans loathe of phony. And that's what it's starting
(33:04):
to sound like, at least with respect to the McDonald's story.
I'm sure there's a lot more that goes into well, look,
I mean, look at the way what was the campaign
website characterization that she was raised by a single mom. Yeah,
Vice President Harris, daughter of a working mother. Right, She
was a college professor and a cancer researcher at a
(33:26):
major university, and her father was a tenured professor at Stanford.
I mean, these are they work. These are working people,
no question about it. Being a professor is certainly not
a nothing job. But you're not broke, that's for sure.
My son is a sophomore in high school, and so
(33:49):
I've peaked at what tuition is at Stanford, So I
can only imagine her father was a tenured professor at Stanford.
In the Department of Economics, and he was a mark
exist at that, but nevertheless he's still a professor. He
was pulling down some decent change, and with two working
professors at major universities, she probably did not need to
(34:10):
work at McDonald's. So I'm thinking that she may have
just thrown that in there just for a little bit
of fun. What do you know about that? All right,
good stuff. We got more to get to as we
continue along on the Jesse Kelly Show. Lou Penrose sitting
