The new Birtherism is McDonaldsism?

I mean, it is kind of awesome if you think of it--after people made such a big deal out of the horror of electing a barista to the House of Representatives and the SAME people are now arguing that a candidate should be disqualified for president for NOT working at a McDonald's.

Can you highlight where it says they have no record of her working there for me? Still don't see it.


Are people seriously arguing now that people should have tax returns and paystubs from ~40 years ago?

Follow the dialog.

Follow the dialog.

I did.

Nor do I. Can you highlight your point?


by housenuts k

Good. My point is simply that you made an incorrect claim and should withdraw it. I'll consider it withdrawn.


by Maximus122 k

If I claimed that I worked at Microsoft Azure, but didn't it would be highly unethical.

Trump working at McDonald's going viral on Twitter and Kamala not addressing it makes me certain that she was lying about it.

She's just waiting for the news to start talking about something else in a few days time.

If you claimed that you worked at Microsoft Azure, I'd suspect you were lying since Microsoft Azure is not a company. Microsoft is a company, Azure is a product/platform they provide. Just like if you said you'd worked at McDonald's Big Mac, I'd suspect you probably hadn't worked at McDonald's.

Not a single person who has worked on the Azure team at Microsoft would say they worked "at Microsoft Azure".


by Gorgonian k

No. What they said was they have NO RECORDS FROM THAT TIME PERIOD. That doesn't mean they deny she worked for them. Do you understand the difference?

You're withdrawing this claim, right?


by housenuts k

You're withdrawing this claim, right?

Of course. I fully admit I slightly mis-worded it. See how easy that is. It shouldn't be such a big hit to your ego to admit error.

That's what follow the dialog means.

I said something.
You erroneously corrected it.
And then I properly corrected it.

But for some reason you wouldn't stop talking about the original sentence, which had been corrected.

Follow the dialog pal, saves everyone lots of time and effort.


by VoraciousReader k

I disagree. I would say that even dignifying this kind of ridiculous attack with an answer pr documentation legitimizes the people trying to make it.

Hey, I thought you didn't want to be partisan. That we should all sing Kumbaya and get on together.

Now you're throwing stones just like the rest of us.

Was I supposed to consider your claim withdrawn for some reason? You seem to be assuming I should have. I see no reason why would do so and I feel like I followed the dialog just fine. Point out what would've made me think your claim was withdrawn? Either way, I'm happy you now realize you were incorrect.


by lozen k

Maybe Kamala just misspoke maybe she dreamed that she worked at Mcds
Kinda like Tampon Tim saw military action

Democrats misspeak
Republicans lie

this makes me LOL a lot

by Gorgonian k

So to summarize: McDonald's never said they had no record of Kamala Harris working there, and there is absolutely no evidence that she didn't (and very little that she did).

I don't understand why you were so excited about all of this, given that all of that is true.


by housenuts k

this makes me LOL a lot

Is this a good or bad time to tell you I'm not a democrat? I'd hate for you to "mis-speak."


by housenuts k

Ya they said they have no record of Harris being employed by them or any of their franchisees.

common sense would lead one to that conclusion, yes.

i'm also happy you realize you were incorrect.


by housenuts k

I don't see how.

by housenuts k

Given I was basing no conclusions on my statement, I find the error forgivable. You may feel differently and it would affect my life not in the slightest.

Okay, let me correct myself. Gives an air of legitimacy to the claim itself.


Maximus will return to us in 3 days. Please do not evade the profanity filter to call someone the r-word. Thanks, friends 😀

Trump has done a lot of terrible stuff in office, but I think undoing the Iran deal and pushing for a ludicrous Israel Arab nation business deal while completely ignoring Palestine is probably the dumbest/most destructive. Was handed a really good chance to normalize relations with Iran and ended up killing top Iranian officials. Choosing a war for really no reason.

have you seen the Democratic platform on Iran? have you listened to anything Kamala has said about Iran?


by VoraciousReader k

Well. She can either present evidence or not but I don't think "I'm not going to dignify these allegations with evidence" will play that great.

The smartest ones seem to get caught out by the simplest traps.


I'm sure you're a very busy man over at Microsoft Azure bro, these 3 days will be a godsend for you to catch up on your backlog.

Edit: lol, should have thought about how silly this post would look once his got deleted.

it would seem pretty weird for most people to have definitive documented employment history from 40 years ago yes.

but it also seems pretty weird that the sitting VP and Democratic nominee for president does not have any evidence at all nor is able to find any through various channels for her claims of employment for a massive American corporation.
