McDonald’s Twitter ‘Compromised,’ Insults Donald Trump
Someone’s not lovin it…
The McDonald’s Twitter account created waves in the social media world Thursday morning with a tweet insulting President Trump.
The tweet was published at 6AM and the alleged hacker even pinned it to the account, meaning it appeared at the very top of the account’s Twitter page. McDonald’s has deleted the tweet and claims their Twitter account was compromised.

The company did not take action on the tweet until after 10AM EST. By then, over 1,000 people on Twitter retweeted the tweet and favorited it.
Now McDonald’s will start an investigation:
Twitter notified us that our account was compromised. We deleted the tweet, secured our account and are now investigating this.

Trump loves his McDonald’s, too. He ate McDonald’s on his private jet to celebrate his GOP presidential nomination last summer.

He even appeared in a McDonald’s commercial in 2002.

Suuuuure it was “compromised”.
Maybe they could start their investigation in the office of the Fascist-Progressive political operative they hired as their brand communications director.
For those who don’t know, you’re speaking of former Obama spokesman Robert Gibbs, right?
“Compromised” by one of their high-paid SJW executives, no doubt.
I would boycott them, but I haven’t eaten there in years. Nasty stuff.
Chances are, they have an intern or something to handle the tweets. That’s the first place I’d look.
At minimum wage, I hope.
McDonalds did hire Obama’s press secretary…mmmm Deep State?
Thankfully, my town has a Bojangles right across the street from McDonald’s.
I would have expected a full blown apology by now from McDonald’s to the public and President. This is liberal land though, and they are trying to figure out if they apologize if it will hurt their sales from non Trump supporters.
News at nine. We see Ronald McDonald in cuffs being led to a squad car for violating the CFAA.
It has to be a hack. They are just trying to get their story straight. They know that Republicans buy burgers too.
The old my account was hacked lie/excuse. That was a favorite of Anthony Weiner as I recall.
The fact that they did not simultaneously issue an apology and disavow the contents of the tweet says everything one needs to know about McDonalds.
Won’t ever buy their products again.
I believe them. I don’t eat there, either,but they make a lot of money from those who do, and good for them!
MacDonald’s can take their garbage I truly would not feed a dog and their black/365 posture and go eff themselves.
Def. a legit hack…it’s not like Trump wants to raise the min. wage to $15 an hour. He wants to scale back regulations.
In suspect a roque employee…who needs to be fired.
I have a republican friend who owns a McDonald’s franchise. He’s not very happy right now.
