A DoorDash driver, known as the "DoorDash Grandma", delivered McDonald's to President Trump at the White House. The interaction included discussions about the administration's tip policy, political topics, and personal anecdotes, as well as a deleted social media post from Trump.

I’m an award-winning writer and editor living in New York City, where I currently work at BuzzFeed as the Senior Lifestyle Editor., aka the DoorDash Grandma, dropped off an order of McDonald's to President Donald Trump at the White House earlier this afternoon.

You remember the policy, right? The one that stated that certain workers will no longer be taxed on some of the tips they claim on their taxes.

• tokens that can be exchanged for a fixed amount in cash ,'100% of tips received by DoorDash will go to the Dasher associated with fulfilling the order, on top of base pay and promotions.' While Sharon didn't clearly state where her tips came from or how they were withdrawn through the app, she did have some interesting interactions with the commander in chief. Let's go through them together, as a team, as a family.

First up, we see Sharon walking up to the Oval Office door with McDonald's in her hands. What is the first thing Trump says?'It doesn't look staged now, does it?'

After talking about the policy and the Big, Beautiful Bill a bit, Trump asked her,'And I think you voted for me? You think?' Her response?'Ah, maybe.'Even though DoorDash Grandma completed her delivery, Trump wasn't done with DoorDash Grandma. He invited her to stand next to him while he answered some questions from the press.

he posted late last night, but then later deleted from his Truth Social account. He stated that he believed it to be him,, who makes people feel better.'As an example, the $11,000 — I understand your husband is going through treatment... This goes a long way,' he said to Sharon, seemingly explaining how his policy helped them.

A few minutes later, Trump talks about how the Democrats have cheated in the 2020 elections, which then led to him asking Sharon a one-off question:'They want to have open borders. They want to have men playing in women's sports. Do you think that men should play in women's sports?' Her response?'I really don't have an opinion on that.'

Trump didn't believe her, but Sharon stood her ground,'No, no, I'm here about...' But Trump tried to finish her sentence by adding,'Pizza?' to which she said,'No Tax on Tips.' Right after, he weirdly pats her on her back while saying,'Okay.'

Next, a reporter directly asked Sharon a very important question.'Are the White House good tippers? Do you know?' Before she answers, Trump pulls some money out of his pocket and hands it to her, laughing.'Uh, potentially,' she begins, but then says,'Yes, very' when she looks at the cash amount.that will be happening this summer.'Is your husband up to coming?' he asked.'He might,' she responded. He then asked her how her husband was doing, and she explained that he was doing really well and that he had written a book on humility, which hasn't been published yet.

After clips of this brief press conference with Sharon went viral on Twitter , the internet had a lot of thoughts about DoorDash Grandma and Trump. 'That woman's life flashed before her eyes,' one person said about Sharon being asked if men should play in women's sports.'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,' another person said.
