Donald Trump wins: His viral moments
The US Presidential race has been one dramatic and exhausting event but that's the fun of it. In between launching scathing attacks against the Democrats, first at Joe Biden and then at his successor Kamala Harris, Donald Trump, thanks to his funny bone, also managed to make us chuckle with his antics. Below, we are sharing five viral Trump moments that were a breath of fresh air amid election chaos.
1. Trump's viral dance
Contrary to former president Barack Obama's remark that you'd be worried if grandpa acted like this, netizens were thrilled to watch Donald Trump's viral dance moves during an election campaign last month. At a town hall in Oaks, Pennsylvania, on October 14, Trump broke out into an impromptu dance performance to keep the crowd entertained after two attendees fainted. The 78-year-old grooved on stage for nearly 45 minutes to songs like YMCA by the Village People, Nothing Compares 2 U by Sinead O'Connor, and Luciano Pavarotti's version of Ave Maria. Aside from the fun part, fans also appreciated the thought behind Trump's moves.

2. The McDonalds shift
At a time when Gen-Z stars, including Sabrina Carpenter and Olivia Rodrigo, were working overtime to support their Kamala Harris endorsement at their concerts, Trump opted for a more relatable approach - he took a job at McDonald's in Feasterville-Trevose. On October 20, the former US President manned the fry station and even held a news conference at the drive-through window. Trump's play for Generation Z hit the right mark as a Newsweek/Talker Research poll revealed that 39% admitted they liked him more after his famous shift.

3. Trump¡¯s ear bandage
After a would-be assassin's bullet grazed Donald Trump's ear at a Pennsylvania rally in July, he appeared at the Republican National Convention with a bandage covering the wound. Supporters showed solidarity by wearing their white ear coverings, sparking jokes online.

1) So, following up on a hunch, I checked back to see if Trump ear bandages were for sale. And now they are. Now, MAGA will tell you they¡¯re not a cult emulating everything their leader does. But¡how do we explain there¡¯s a market for this? Oh, and there¡¯s more!?? pic.twitter.com/TzzOJ42DCU
