DOJ Launches Investigation Into Trump Over Alleged Failure to Wash Hands at McDonald’s

Key Takeaways:

  • The Department of Justice (DOJ) has launched an investigation into claims that Donald Trump failed to wash his hands after using the restroom while working at a McDonald’s in Pennsylvania.
  • Witnesses allege that Trump returned to handling food without following proper hygiene protocols.
  • Trump’s legal team denies the allegations, calling them “a desperate smear,” while McDonald’s conducts its own internal review.

WASHINGTON, D.C. – In a bizarre twist, the Department of Justice has launched an investigation into Donald Trump following claims that he skipped hand-washing after a restroom break during his short-lived stint at a McDonald’s in Pennsylvania.

Eyewitnesses report that Trump, returning from the bathroom, grabbed a spatula without pausing for hand sanitizer. “He didn’t even glance at the sanitizer station,” said one employee. “He just went straight for the fries.” This breach of hygiene protocol, according to insiders, led to swift complaints from staff and customers alike.

DOJ Steps In

The DOJ has taken the matter seriously, citing public health concerns as the primary reason for their investigation. “This isn’t about politics. It’s about ensuring proper health and safety standards in a food establishment,” said a DOJ representative. “The allegations, if proven true, could have significant implications for anyone in that restaurant.”

Hand-washing, especially in the food industry, is a strict requirement. Health experts have emphasized the dangers of skipping this essential practice. “Hand-washing reduces the spread of germs. In any restaurant, it’s non-negotiable,” noted one public health official. The DOJ now seeks to determine whether Trump’s actions posed a health risk to those present.

Trump’s Legal Team Fires Back

Trump’s legal team quickly issued a statement, calling the investigation “ridiculous” and “part of an ongoing witch hunt.” His lawyer claimed that Trump did, in fact, use the hand sanitizer after returning from the restroom. “We have witnesses who saw Mr. Trump sanitize his hands thoroughly before handling any food,” the lawyer insisted.

The former president, as expected, took to Truth Social to defend himself. “No one washes their hands more than I do! This is just another FAKE story to attack me. The fries were amazing, by the way. #MAGA #CleanHands.”

McDonald’s Responds

McDonald’s responded swiftly, confirming that they are conducting an internal review of the incident. In a statement, the company reassured the public: “We take food safety seriously, and all employees are required to follow strict hygiene protocols. We are fully cooperating with the investigation.”

To ease public concern, McDonald’s also announced a weekend promotion offering free large fries with any purchase. “Come in and enjoy our world-famous fries—just wash your hands first!” the statement added with a wink.

Will This Impact Trump’s Legacy?

While some see this latest scandal as another bump in Trump’s tumultuous post-presidency life, others question whether it will stick. “Trump’s base is fiercely loyal,” commented one analyst. “A hand-washing scandal might not sway them. But for others, this could be another example of him ignoring basic rules.”

Regardless of the outcome, the scandal has already set social media alight, with memes and commentary flooding platforms. From “No Soap, No Problem” memes to jokes about Trump’s unique approach to food safety, #DookieGate continues to dominate trending topics.
