It seems that Donald Trump can’t even do a good deed without raising a few eyebrows.

In classic Trump fashion, the former president made headlines this week during a campaign stop at a Pennsylvania grocery store. While there, cameras captured the moment he handed a local mom-of-three $100 toward her groceries.
The grocery stop took place at Sprankle’s Neighborhood Market in Kittanning, PA, as Trump promised the public that he was going to work to lower supermarket prices if he’s re-elected to the White House in the upcoming presidential election.
In a video shared by his campaign, Trump can be seen approaching a woman checking out at the store and handing her a crisp $100 bill.
“Here, it’s gonna go down a little,” Trump told the woman, referencing the ever-rising prices at the grocery store. “It just went down 100 bucks.”
The woman, clearly amused, laughed with others around her before saying: “Thank you so much.”
“We’ll do that for you from the White House, all right?” Trump replied with a grin, hinting at his plans to tackle inflation and lower costs for Americans if he secures a victory in the 2024 election.
Before moving on, Trump couldn’t help but compliment the woman’s children, saying, “Beautiful,” and “Perfecto,” when he realized they were her sons.
After grabbing a large bag of popcorn to go, Trump headed off to a rally in Indiana, PA, later that day.
