    Seems high to me. Back of the envelope math doesn’t work out well (13k restaurants, 50 employees each, 125% turnover gives you ~812k a year.)

    Only non-witches get due process.

      Multiply that by 60(?) years. But then of course, you need to figure out the total number of people who lived during that time period.

      I am guess it is somewhere about 1 in 50.

            The ice cream machine reference is genius.
            McDonald's has a well known problem with its ice cream machines in the industry.

              With this campaign event, maybe Trump took the advice of the late Ray Kroc... “If any of my competitors were drowning,” he said, “I’d stick a hose in their mouth and turn on the water. It is ridiculous to call this an industry. This is not. This is rat eat rat, dog eat dog. I’ll kill ’em, and I’m going to kill ’em before they kill me. You’re talking about the American way — of survival of the fittest.”

              “Cry havoc and let slip the DOGE of war!”

                  It would shock me if 1 in 8 American adults have worked at McDonalds.

                  I saw that as well. I don't think I know anyone who has worked at Mickey D's.

                                More Pulitzer fodder for Newsweek!

                                https://www.newsweek.com/donald-trump-fake-image-nfl-star-pittsburgh-steelers-1972064?utm_term=Autofeed&utm_medium=Social&utm_source=Twitter#Echobox=1729527721

                                Newsweek has determined that this is a fake picture.

                                    I mean exactly like that. Who is being convinced of something by any of this?

                                    This stuff might have worked in 1997 on the 6 o’clock news.

                                          “Cry havoc and let slip the DOGE of war!”

                                          Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton
