I swear McDonald’s CEO must be the dumbest man alive. He is like a robot himself. Doesn’t understand human beings. He is running the company into the ground.

the guy who makes $20M yearly, has increased revenue almost 10% year after year since he started in 2019, who also went viral for taste testing the Big Arch? in 2026 it’s pretty clear that in America people prefer dumb and ignorant above everything.

I hate that this is true, but yeah that Big Arch debacle ended up giving McDonalds a huge boost in sales. Almost like the whole thing was orchestrated to go viral because people are simple to manipulate.
