A McDonald’s employee in Georgia was caught off guard when she failed to recognize former US President Bill Clinton until he introduced himself. The encounter took place while Clinton was in the state campaigning for Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris.
Clinton, dressed casually in blue jeans and a jacket, walked up to the counter, but the worker didn’t immediately realize who he was. As the 42nd president approached, the employee looked puzzled until Clinton greeted her. Once he introduced himself, the surprised worker lit up, exclaiming, “Oh my god!” and quickly gave him a warm hug.
NEW: McDonalds worker has no clue she is talking to Bill Clinton until he tells her his name.
