KFC mocks McDonald’s with Trump parody tweet

KFC has taken aim at McDonald’s via social media, aping Donald Trump's ‘my nuclear button is bigger than your button’ message to Kim Jong-un.

The former’s UK and Ireland Twitter account tweeted last week that its burger was larger than those on offer at McDonald's. "McDonald's leader Ronald just stated he has a 'burger on his desk at all times'," it stated. "Will someone from his big shoed, red nosed regime inform him that I too have a burger on my desk, but mine is a box meal which is bigger and more powerful than his, and mine has gravy! #nuclearbutton"

No response from McDonald's thus far, although KFC's tweet was shared more than 180,000 times and liked 475,000-plus times within 48 hours. This isn’t the first time it has been a hit on social media. Click here for further details.
