It appears some businesses have decided to incorporate President Donald Trump’s nuclear standoff with North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un into their online advertising.
Kentucky Fried Chicken mimicked Trump’s “nuclear button” tweet to savage competitor McDonald’s on Twitter.
McDonald’s leader Ronald just stated he has a “burger on his desk at all times”. 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

The assault follows a tweet by the president responding to Kim’s New Year’s address, in which he warned the U.S. that he has a button on his desk to order a nuclear strike.
North Korean Leader Kim Jong Un just stated that the “Nuclear Button is on his desk at all times.” Will someone from his depleted and food starved regime please inform him that I too have a Nuclear Button, but it is a much bigger & more powerful one than his, and my Button works!

With the rise of Twitter, fast food restaurants such as Wendy’s, McDonald’s, and KFC have developed a significant online presence, using Tweets to market products in a more relatable way. Apparently, Trump’s “nuclear button” tweet was just too good to pass up for KFC’s social media team.
