Trump's love of McDonald's has long been documented. 

The president served a buffet of fast-food options when he welcomed national college football champions the Clemson Tigers to the White House in 2019. He also requested McDonald's following his COVID-19 diagnosis and recovery in 2020, according to his son-in-law, Jared Kushner. And anecdotes from his former bodyguard say Trump enjoyed Egg McMuffins for breakfast during the 2016 campaign.

Trump's love of the fast-food staple was underscored during the 2024 campaign cycle, when he donned a McDonald's apron and worked the fryer at a location in the battleground state of Pennsylvania.

Trump also worked the drive-thru window during his McDonald's shift, greeting customers and vowing that he would make the U.S. "better than ever" if re-elected to the Oval Office.

Trump arrived in Riyadh early Tuesday morning, with the nation sending fighter jet escorts to welcome Air Force One to the ground and Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman greeting Trump on the tarmac that was adorned with a lavender-colored carpet.

"Air Force One about to go wheels down in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia with Saudi F-15 fighter jets bringing us in. On behalf of President Trump, THANK YOU!" White House Deputy Chief of Staff Dan Scavino posted on X while sharing a video of jets flying alongside the U.S. president's plane.

Trump's trip included the president signing a "strategic economic partnership" with the country for energy, defense, mining and space-based agreements that amount to $600 billion. Trump said the deal could lead to the creation of 2 million jobs in the U.S.
