Trump Latest News:
A mother of three was gifted $100 to help pay for her groceries while at Sprankles Neighborhood Market in Pennsylvania, while former President Donald Trump was making a campaign stop.
"It just went down 100 bucks," Trump said.
"Thank you so much," the woman replied.
"We'll do that for you from the White House, alright?" Trump said as he waved goodbye and thanked everyone for their support.
Trump also supported the business by purchasing a large bag of popcorn.
"Oh, look, I gotta get some. We gotta get it," Trump smiles while handing over the large bag to his team.
"My mom just got a bag of that actually," a customer tells the former president.
Pennsylvania mom of three Jenny Kantz found it a "complete surprise" when former President Trump handed her $100 at a grocery store checkout line to take the pinch out of her bill.
"It was a great experience," she told "Fox & Friends" Tuesday.
Sitting alongside her husband Bryant, Jenny enthused about meeting the former president at the Sprankles Grocery Store her cousin owns in Kittanning, northeast of Pittsburgh on Monday.
Trump's team reportedly requested that someone be present at the checkout counter upon his arrival, but Kantz says she had no idea he had planned to give her money from his own wallet.
Video of the moment shows Trump handing over the cash and telling Kantz, "It [the cost] just went down 100 bucks. We'll do that for you from the White House."
"The total bill was $194 and some change, and the inflation on groceries has definitely affected us," Kantz explained on Tuesday.
"I think it was late 2022 or early 2023, I remember coming home from the grocery store and telling him [Bryant], 'I don't even know how to budget for groceries anymore because it's like every time I go to the store, they just go up and up and up.' That, paired with the rising cost of energy, fuel for our vehicles… it just means that we watch a little bit more closely what we spend."
According to ConsumerAffairs, the Keystone State saw the highest grocery inflation rate in the U.S. with an 8.2% increase in prices.
The GOP nominee is slated to deliver remarks on the tax code and inflation at a campaign event in Savannah, Georgia on Tuesday, maintaining his focus on the economy as he vies for support from voters in the key swing state.
A New York Times poll released Monday indicates Trump is leading Vice President Harris in the Peach State as well as in North Carolina and Arizona.
In must-win Pennsylvania, many polls show the candidates deadlocked, with a Washington Post poll finding Harris at 48% to Trump's 47%.
