For sure not relatable to everyone, nothing is. But lots of Americans doordash their McDonald's. And its not something we picture a president or even a wealthy person doing. That's what makes it humanizing at the very least, if not relatable
Doordashing fast food just boggles my mind. I mean a good pizza or chinese place is a bit healthier, better tasting, and cheaper to have delivered. If your lucky there are a few other things with delivery menus around to.
Yeah I feel ya. But objectively, doing so is hugely popular. The fact McDonald's has special packaging just for it really goes to show what a huge part of their income its become.
I don't think going to church makes any sense either, but there's no denying that being seen doing so makes you relatable to a good chunk of the country. (Although not as big a chunk as some may like to pretend...)
