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.

'Dr. Pimple Popper' Star Reveals She Suffered Stroke While Filming Series: 'I Had A Part Of My Brain That Died'

It's already scary to witness a younger person go through a life-changing medical diagnosis, but it's especially jarring to see a medical professional, who presumably knows best about how to care for themselves, go through the same.

Sandra Lee, known as "Dr. Pimple Popper" on Lifetime, is well-known for her bedside manner, medical knowledge and ability to share her knowledge in an accessible way, and, of course, her unique approach to dermatological care.

Rob Schneider Dragged For Criticizing Elizabeth Banks' 'Dangerous Rhetoric' After She Called Out White Female Trump Voters

After actor and filmmaker Elizabeth Banks—who played Effie Trinket in The Hunger Games—called out white women who voted for President Donald Trump, MAGA actor Rob Schneider lashed out against what he referred to as her "dangerous rhetoric."

Those who've read the book and seen the film adaptation of The Hunger Games know that Trinket—known for joyfully announcing, "Happy Hunger Games and the odds may be ever in your favor!"—is a mistress of propaganda for a hostile government that forces teenagers to fight to the death every year to intimidate critics and keep society's poorest and most vulnerable in line. Trinket eventually embraces the rebellion.

Kid Rock Dragged After Offering Massive Discount To His MAGA Festival Due To Abysmal Ticket Sales

Musician Kid Rock has hitched his wagon to president Donald Trump for quite some time now, and it seems he too is in the "find out" stage of that particularly exercise in FAFO.

It seems that when the president you form your entire personality around craters to a catastrophic approval rating even for him, your ship starts to sink too.

Trump's Border Czar Ripped For Hypocrisy After Telling Pope Leo To 'Stay Out Of Politics'

President Donald Trump's border czar Tom Homan was called out for hypocrisy after telling Pope Leo XIV to "stay out of politics" after he clashed with Trump over the widely unpopular war in Iran.

Last week, Pope Leo criticized the war and called on the world "to reject war, especially a war which many people have said is an unjust war, which is continuing to escalate and is not resolving anything."
