Viral Video: Trump Helps Mother of 3 with Grocery Bill, Internet Calls Him 'Man of the People'
The video captures Trump helping a mother by paying a hundred-dollar grocery bill in Pennsylvania during a campaign stop.
Viral News: A recent clip of former US President Donald Trump has caught the attention of internet users.
The video captures Trump helping a mother by paying a hundred-dollar grocery bill in Pennsylvania during a campaign stop on September 23.
The Republican candidate was also seen promising lower supermarket prices if elected in November.
The video was posted by Trump's campaign team with the caption, "President @realDonaldTrump helps a mom of 3 pay for her groceries."
Trump hands the money to the woman, saying, "Here, it's gonna go down a little. It just went down 100 bucks."
The woman conveys her gratitude toward the candidate, and Trump is heard saying, "We'll do that for you from the White House, alright?" He also compliments her sons, calling them "beautiful" and "perfecto."
Inflation and reducing the price of everyday items have been major points of Trump's campaign ahead of the November 2025 elections.
How did the internet react?
While Trump supporters appreciated the gesture, Harris supporters called it an "act."
One user wrote, "This is more than Kamala has ever done to help any American."
Another commented, "Comrade Kamala could never do this. Trump is real and genuine, Kamala is fake."
A third user wrote, "Love Trump, he has been doing this his whole life without cameras filming. There are so many stories of people saying he read their story in the paper and sent them a check to pay off their house, gave loans to minorities when all banks refused, etc."
A critic remarked, "100 ain't paying for a mom of 3’s groceries."
Finally, another user commented, "Wait, he said, ‘we’ll do that for you from the White House’ as in he’s bribing someone for a vote? Also, why did he feel the need to have this taped for posting instead of just doing it privately? I’m not impressed."
