    Bill Clinton visits Georgia McDonald’s: video shows employee’s reaction

    An employee was in for a big surprise when a president stopped by a McDonald’s in Georgia this weekend, but it wasn’t the president she was thinking of.

    “You Joe? Mr. Joe,” the employee asked former President Bill Clinton, who was standing in front of the cash register at the popular fast food restaurant in an American varsity jacket.

    She immediately corrected herself, “Bill? Oh my God, hello Bill!” The employee walked from behind the counter to give Clinton – not current President Joe Biden – a hug.

    “Take a picture of me,” she said cheerfully. “This is all Bill!”

    In the clip, Clinton and the employee are seen smiling as her colleagues took photos of them.

    The now-viral McDonald’s interaction was posted by Clinton’s deputy chief of staff Angel Ureña.

    “The boss was stomping for @KamalaHarris in Georgia and had to stop by the old stomping grounds, @McDonalds,” Ureña wrote.

    Clinton notably went to McDonald’s on his own campaign trail, so much so that a plaque was created in his honor at a location in Little Rock, Arkansas. In 2000, he was photographed leaving a location in Monroe, Michigan. His lunch order consisted of crispy chicken and fries.

    “You know, it was a regular thing for me when I was a private citizen, so maybe I’ll do it a little more now,” he said at the time, the Toledo Blade reported.

    The ex-president’s recent visit comes amid his campaign efforts for Vice President Kamala Harris in Georgia. The former president delivered remarks Monday at a Democratic campaign office in Columbus.

    “Uniting people and building, repairing the breach, as Isaiah says, those are the things that work,” Clinton said as he spoke to Peach State voters and organizers. “Blaming, dividing, humiliating – they get you a lot of votes at election time, but they don’t work.”
