Coincidence?
I think not! %^)

"At least 49 illnesses have been reported across 10 states, including one death of an older person. Ten people have been hospitalized, including a child who had hemolytic uremic syndrome, a serious complication that can develop from an E. coli infection.
Most of the illnesses are in Colorado and Nebraska."
.
"Most of the people who became ill reported eating McDonald's Quarter Pounder sandwiches, the CDC says.
The agency says that the investigation is "fast-moving" and that information reviewed by the US Food and Drug Administration shows that slivered onions are a likely source of contamination."

Trump gets a job a McDonald's and now we learn their food is killing people. Totally expected.

Watch out for E.coli's nasty brother, Bro-C.coli.

I quit McDonalds many years ago when I earned that they were farm growing high protein worms for filler in their burgers.

That was the rumor a neighborhood father that told us 10 year olds about Wendy's. He called them Wendy's Worm burgers. I'm 55 now, so that's an old rumor.

Twinpac and A Monson just triggered a memory of a book I read as a kid:
How to Eat Fried Worms

I did say "many years ago" and I distinctly remember it was McDonalds. I don't know if Wendys was around my area at that time because, if they were, I never went to any of their restaurants. I do remember my stomach churning every time I saw those golden arches. I also remember the announcement by McDonalds that they were no longer using what they called "high protein fillers" in their meat products.
I'm sure the scandal has been long forgotten by now. I just never trusted them again.

Now we can believe that Kamala worked there. Trump's time at McDonalds was staged.

So according to Maga we should just keep quiet and let more people die from eating poison Quarter Pounders till after the election...just so Trump doesn't look bad. Smart.

@#17 ... Now we can believe that Kamala worked there. ...
What is the apparent fascination of MAGA with VP Harris' work history?
I mean really.
Instead of just posting vague inferences, maybe post a question that can be answered, or a comment that can be read and understood.

Since all she says is meaningless we have to look at her resume. A past unburdened by personal accomplishment. Did you know she took advantage of a program intended for the disadvantaged to get into law school? Weird.

A post unburdened by any facts. As usual.

Nov 5th is in the future. (Here on Earth 1)
So no. Not real. Yet.
Also ... most humans are terrible at predicting the future. Apparently. As the future is never what we think it's going to be.

I noticed the siphilitic orange oaf wasn't wearing gloves when he du.ped tbose pre-made fries out of the basket a d put them in the boxes. After seeing that, it's no wonder they're having an E. coli outbreak.
