Former President Donald Trump surprised customers, on Sunday, by working the drive-thru window at a McDonald’s in Pennsylvania. As he handed out orders, one customer, Nayara Andrejczyk, made a heartfelt plea. “Mr. President, please don’t let the U.S. become Brazil, my native Brazil, please,” she said. Trump, smiling, responded, “We’re gonna make it better than ever.”
Trump’s McDonald’s Visit Goes Viral
A video of the interaction quickly went viral. Trump was seen cooking fries and serving customers, while also taking a jab at his 2024 opponent, Vice President Kamala Harris, who claimed to have worked at a McDonald’s in her youth. Andrejczyk’s brief interaction, however, captured the internet’s attention.
In an interview the next day on Fox News’ “The Story,” Andrejczyk explained her comment. She moved to the U.S. from Brazil 26 years ago because of the corruption that plagued her homeland. “My parents were victims of Brazilian government corruption. My mom lost a successful business,” she said. That loss drove her family to seek a better life in the U.S.
Fear of Corruption in the U.S.
Andrejczyk expressed gratitude for America and her fear of it going down a similar path as Brazil. “I love this country. I don’t want to see it become the corrupt sewage that Brazil is now, where politicians have no accountability to the people,” she stated. Her remarks reflect the growing concern among some Americans about the state of politics and corruption.
Surprised by Trump’s Appearance
Andrejczyk had been invited to a Trump campaign event, but she was unaware Trump would be working the drive-thru window. “There was no stunt,” she said, adding, “It was a great surprise to see him there. He’s very charismatic and relatable.”

Despite the brief interaction, Andrejczyk felt as if she had met a friend. She described Trump as genuine, noting how he made direct eye contact and greeted her children in the back seat. “He looked us in the eye… It was incredible. My kids said, ‘I can’t believe I shook Donald Trump’s hand.’ He’s a genuine man,” she added.
Trump’s McDonald’s Visit Sparks Debate
While many enjoyed the lighthearted moment, Trump critics labeled the event as “staged.” However, Trump’s supporters were quick to point out the necessary security precautions. Trump, who has faced two assassination attempts in recent weeks, cannot simply walk into a McDonald’s without security.
Senator JD Vance, Trump’s running mate, defended the visit during an interview on Fox News. “The president has to have security because there have been two attempts on his life in the last eight weeks,” he said, dismissing accusations that the visit was overly staged.
Trump’s Promise to Make America Better
Throughout the visit, Trump praised the McDonald’s staff, including the branch manager, and reiterated his commitment to improving the country. As he served fries and greeted customers, he promised to make America better if elected president again.
This unique event gave Trump supporters a glimpse of a more personal side of the former president, while also drawing criticism from his opponents. Nevertheless, Andrejczyk’s plea reflected the concerns of many who fear the direction in which the U.S. may be heading.
