Today, Trump had McDonald's delivered by DoorDash. This is something millions of Americans do every week, and it was meant to showcase Trump's policy of no tax on tips.

Once the Dasher approached, President Trump started a full on conversation with her.

Apparently, she didn't have much of an opinion on this topic and wanted to stick to the one she knows the most about. No tax on tips certainly matters to gig workers.
The White House just released more details on the DoorDash Grandma, who just delivered an order of McDONALD'S to President Trump in the Oval Office

Sharon Simmons from Arkansas:
- Is grandma of 10
- Started dashing in 2022
- Completed 14,000 DELIVERIES
- Has saved $11,000 in… pic.twitter.com/bmaK67SIGv
That's a whole bunch of money saved! That's likely several months of Social Security checks for her.
🚨 LMAO! A DoorDash driver was just asked if the White House is a good tipper

DRIVER: "Ummm..."
POTUS: "WAIT!" *pulls out $100 bill*
DRIVER: "Yes! Very!" 🤣🔥 pic.twitter.com/cUMjl7QWrl

That's what Doordash Grandma wants to see!

DoorDash Grandma is a fence straddler, apparently.
This reads to me as someone at DoorDash preparing her for this exact situation https://t.co/qWgtC3JxYe

They probably told her if Trump starts talking and talking, just refuse to answer anything at all. Heh.

In India this woman would have had her house bulldozed, electricity department would have cut off her connection and the courts would have refrained her from speaking! https://t.co/YSlirBiiJP

So, what you're saying is Trump isn't a dictator/Fascist/Hitler or whatever the Left du jour most popular slur going might be?
her shirt saying doordash grandma is very bleak, peak late stage capitalism. she should be retired and drinking coffee on her porch, not doing food deliveries https://t.co/7HH9DcRTXc

Maybe if the Left didn't steal her Social Security to help deadbeats and illegals, she could retire.

That Doordash woman is the most skilled politician in Washington.

Has to be!
47 routinely carries hundreds on him for tips, actually.

He’s known to be a good tipper. Especially for staff at his clubs.
Good on him! Also, because of his policies, the service worker takes all the money home and their government doesn't get their grubby paws on it.
