Trump's campaign sent him to McDonald's because of Harris having worked there in college. Trump has repeatedly accused his Democratic opponent of lying about working at McDonald's, in large part because the job wasn't listed on her later resume for a legal job.

I don't often get jobs with a resume, but is it uncommon to drop low level and irrelevant jobs from your resume?

I dont think the IT firm i'm applying to cares if i worked at walmart in high school....

It common practice to curate your resume to the job you're applying for, you can smell the bullshit drifting off this one

You absolutely want to drop irrelevant jobs from your resume. You're spot on.

Trump's just mad because she's actually worked real jobs before, and he hasn't.

It is common to omit short-term or less relevant experience from a résumé and to prioritize including jobs that are longer-term or more field specific to what you are applying for. Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. If McDonald’s corporate was not directly involved with this stunt, perhaps they’ll clarify if Harris did indeed work for them in order to lessen the negative perception of Trump using their franchise.

Did McDonald’s corporate agree to this political stunt? Or was it just one specific location that agreed for him to come in?
