00:04Donald Trump reflected on an unusual moment from the 2024 campaign trail,

00:09telling attendees at the McDonald's Impact Summit in Washington, D.C.

00:13that serving French fries at a Pennsylvania restaurant

00:15made him feel confident about his electoral chances.

00:19I'm honored to stand before you as the very first former McDonald's fry cook

00:23ever to become president of the United States, Trump, 79, told the audience.

00:28According to USA Today, Trump described stepping behind the counter

00:32during an October 20, 2024, campaign stop in Feasterville, Pennsylvania,

00:38where he briefly worked the fryer.

00:40Trump described trying to make French fries at the line,

00:43mimicking the cook's technique, and said it was challenging but interesting.

00:47Calling the task a little complex,

00:49Trump said the line of customers stretched long that day.

00:52They had 25,000 people, so somebody let them know we were coming, he claimed.

00:57After helping with the fries, Trump said he moved to the drive-thru window to greet customers.

01:02He joked that people visiting were initially bored,

01:05but reacted so positively that it felt like he knew he would win.

01:09He added that the response was love, calling the experience great.

01:14Trump's recollection came days after the House Oversight Committee

01:16released thousands of documents from Jeffrey Epstein's estate,

01:20including email exchanges between Epstein and associates.

01:23In one message to Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein referred to Trump as

01:27that dog that hasn't barked, writing,

01:30redacted victim's name, spent hours at my house with him,

01:34he has never once been mentioned.

01:36Maxwell replied, I have been thinking about that.

01:39Epstein also wrote to biographer Michael Wolff about Trump's club, saying,

01:43Trump said he asked me to resign, never a member ever.

01:46He later added, of course, he knew about the girls.

01:49Responding to reporters after the emails became public, Trump said,

01:53I know nothing about that.

01:54They would have announced that a long time ago.

01:56He added, Jeffrey Epstein and I had a very bad relationship for many years.
