25. I was thinking that same thing

I don't eat a lot of fast food, but I do stop there now and then. There is no normal restaurant in this small town that makes a good burger, believe it or not. I mean, how hard is that? We did have a great place for burgers, but it closed down, so now all we have are duds again. (There is also no place to get a good steak here.) Anyway, even though it is a bit out of my way compared to McD's, I have decided to never patronize them again. As soon as an outlet is tainted by the stench of trump, we quit going there (pizza places, Home Depot, etc.). I'm not an Arby's fan, and our Wendy's has gotten some very bad reviews for their handling of food so they are out. BK it is when I need a quickie burger fix!
