A Pennsylvania mother who was served by former President Trump at McDonald’s shared the one request she made when he appeared at the drive-thru window on Sunday.
During his visit, Trump cooked and served French fries to customers while accusing his 2024 opponent, Vice President Kamala Harris, of fabricating claims about having worked at the fast food chain.
A clip of Nayara Andrejczyk arriving at the drive-thru window where Trump was waiting with her order went viral, as online users focused on a comment she made to the former president during their brief encounter.
“Mr. President, please don’t let the U.S. become Brazil, my native Brazil, please,” Andrejczyk pleaded.
“We’re gonna make it better than ever, ok?” Trump said, shaking her hand while continuing to greet an assembled crowd through the drive-thru window.
The Pennsylvania resident, who immigrated to the U.S. from Brazil 26 years ago, was asked about the remark in an interview on Fox News’ “The Story” on Monday.
“My parents were victims of Brazilian corruption, government corruption,” she told anchor Martha MacCallum. “My mom lost a pretty successful business…almost 30 years ago, and that’s the reason why we moved to the United States.
“I am very grateful for this country. I love this country,” she continued. “And I don’t want to see this country become the corrupt sewage that Brazil is at this moment, where politicians do whatever they want with no accountability to the people.”
