KFC took inspiration from President Donald Trump as it took a dig at McDonald's on Twitter, writes dailymail.co.uk.

Aiming a swipe at its rival's mascot on Wednesday morning, the KFC UK & Ireland Twitter account said: '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!' 

The tweet was a clear parody of President Trump's statement that his nuclear button was 'much bigger and more powerful' than that of North Korean leader Kim Jong-Un.
