A youthful admirer of Donald Trump became emotional during a campaign event when the ex-president took a moment to greet him, noticing their strikingly similar attire. Before addressing the citizens of Philadelphia at Temple University over the weekend, Trump paid a visit to Tony and Nick’s Steaks where the memorable interaction took place.

A video capturing the moment when a young boy, dressed in a blue suit and sporting a blonde wig, can be seen beaming with joy as the Republican addresses him and hands him a signed $20 bill has garnered close to five million views.
“You know who that is? That’s Andrew Jackson,” Trump could be heard saying at the crowded restaurant, with dozens of spectators watching in the background.
“We’re going to add some value,” the former president said as he adorned the bill with his signature and the young fan’s eyes welled up with adoration.
