Social Media Lauds Obama For Volunteering At Food Bank For Thanksgiving While Trump Plays Golf In Florida
Twitter and the rest of social media could not hide its excitement over former US President Barack Obama’s decision to volunteer at a food bank for Thanksgiving even as Donald Trump spent Wednesday playing golf in Florida, according to Newsweek.
On Tuesday, Obama made a surprise visit to a Chicago food bank in order to assist volunteers in preparing Thanksgiving food for people in need. The news first became public when the Greater Chicago Food Depository tweeted a video showing the former president helping volunteers to bag potatoes with a pair of latex gloves. Obama can be seen smiling and chatting with other volunteers at the facility, and as the Inquisitr reported yesterday, the former president even took out time to meet up with little girls who were starstruck at his presence.
Obama, who is in native Chicago to attend the second edition of the annual Obama Foundation Summit, was lauded on social media for his surprise visit.
