To the election campaign trail in the US where Donald Trump went out meeting and greeting in a supermarket in Pennsylvania.

And this moment in particular went viral, where he gave – strictly speaking, threw – $100 of someone’s money to a woman to help her pay for her shop.

And the visit prompted no end of totally on-point responses …

When the cameras stopped rolling he retrieved the money.

On an unrelated note, that probably marks one of the few times in his adult life he's ever stepped into a grocery store.

Better or worse than throwing paper towels after a hurricane?

Noted.

It seems that Trump is allowed to break the law on a daily basis.
