Trump Dragged After Ex-Bodyguard Claims He Still Owes Him $130 From A 2008 McDonald's Trip

Trump Dragged After Ex-Bodyguard Claims He Still Owes Him $130 From A 2008 McDonald's Trip

Kevin McKay, who was previously employed as a bodyguard for Donald Trump, has claimed Trump owes him $130 for a trip to McDonald's in 2008.

The 50-year-old former bodyguard told The Daily Mail:


"He told me he would pay me back, but he never did."

He held onto the hope he would eventually be reimbursed for a while, but to no avail.

"For much of the time I was working for him, I kept thinking he would say, 'Kevin, here's that money I owe you', but it didn't happen."

McKay eventually saw the light, though.

"I thought he was an okay guy when I first started working for him, but I guess as we have all come to see, he is not a man of his word."

The McDonald's trip in question happened in Aberdeen, during a trip to one of Trump's golf courses in Scotland. The real estate mogul wanted burgers for the plane trip back to the US, and decided to order for everyone in his party.

McKay described the food ordered:

"20 cheeseburgers and fries with around 10 or 15 Coca Colas. I think Mr. Trump ordered two cheeseburgers with fries and a Diet Coke – that was his usual order and he always wanted McDonald's to take with him on the private jet."

The enormous order came out to £94 (around $130), but Trump didn't have any of the appropriate currency on him. Instead, he asked McKay to cover the order, promising to pay him back later.

McKay never saw the money, though.

Twitter users were hardly surprised by the news Trump failed to pay a debt owed.






McKay's is just the most recent in a long line of claims of Donald Trump not paying his debts, and it likely won't be the last.

McDonald's' New Purple 'Demon Sauce' Has 'KPop Demon Hunters' Fans Doing A Spit Take

McDonald's is doing a collaboration with KPop Demon Hunters, and people haven't talked about a pop culture restaurant menu partnership as much as this one since, probably, The Grinch or Shrek, both of which also rocked bright, unrealistic food coloring.

Next month, the KPop Demon Hunters X McDonald's menu items will appear at most United States locations, at some locations in Korea, and there are rumors of at least some of the menu items turning up in other countries, as well.

We're deep in the era of assuming that people are rude, controversial, problematic, and maybe even hateful when they set firm boundaries and protect their peace from the people around them.

Because with our increased access to information, thanks to social media and unending internet resources, we seem to think that if we have a question, we are entitled to an answer simply because we want it.

Lindsey Graham Scrambles To Post Macho Photo After He's Spotted Carrying Bubble Wand Around Disney World

South Carolina Republican Senator Lindsey Graham was widely mocked after making an attempt to repair his manly image after he was photographed at Disney World holding a bubble wand—very much enjoying himself during a partial government shutdown.

The shutdown of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is now the longest in history at 45 days and it will stretch on without an agreement between the House and the Senate as lawmakers prepare to leave Washington for Easter break; neither chamber is set to return to Washington until the week of April 13.
