A mobile McDonald's has popped up near the Saudi Royal Court during President Donald Trump’s visit to Saudi Arabia.
Journalist Olga Nesterova posted the restaurant on wheels via Bluesky, "As part of the red-carpet treatment, Saudi officials arranged for a fully operational mobile McDonald’s unit to accompany President Trump during his stay. According to local reports, the unit was set up near the Saudi Royal Court."
The fast-food restaurant is a known favorite of the president. According to a former campaign manager of Trump's, a typical dinner order for Trump consisted of “two Big Macs, two Fillet-O-Fish, and a chocolate malted shake."
Trump landed in Saudi Arabia Tuesday. It is the first of three stops while visiting the Middle East.
He was welcomed by the Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.

According to the Associated Press, they signed an economic agreement, which “includes energy cooperation, modernizing the Saudi armed forces, judicial cooperation between the Justice Ministry and the Saudi judiciary, assistance between customs authorities and collaborations between the Smithsonian Museum and Saudi institutions.”
The two leaders are also expected to speak on dismantling Iran’s nuclear program, ending the war in Gaza, holding down oil prices, and more.
The trip is also filled with controversy. Two of the President’s sons, Don Jr. and Eric, visited the Gulf region ahead of their father’s trip.
Last week, the New York Times reported Eric visited Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, and other Middle East spots promoting the family’s real estate and crypto plans.
There have also been several reports that Trump-branded luxury skyscrapers and golf courses will be built in Qatar.
Multiple White House representatives have vehemently denied that Trump’s family business, the Trump Organization, is profiting off the presidency.
Anna Kelly, a White House spokeswoman, told the Times, “The president’s assets are in a trust managed by his children. There are no conflicts of interest.”
“It is ridiculous that anyone in this room would even suggest that President Trump is doing anything for his own benefit.” White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said at a briefing.
Qatar is giving the President a $400 million plane and will be visited on this trip to the Gulf.
