If Donald Trump wins the presidential election in November — which at this point seems more likely than not — then what happened yesterday at a McDonald’s in Bucks County, Pennsylvania will encapsulate why. Assuming there’s a single honest history book in 20 years, this will be the moment that the authors use to illustrate the trajectory of the race in its final days.
On paper, it was basically just a classic photo-op. It’s the kind of thing that’s been done thousands of times before. Donald Trump showed up at the McDonald’s, mingled with the employees, learned how to cook fries, served some customers in the drive-thru, talked to reporters, and left.
