President Trump may have been criticized as out of touch when he remarked this month that people need to show identification when buying groceries, but Corey Lewandowski said his former boss knows what it’s like to be an average Joe.

His evidence?

Trump was once pulled over by the police while driving his Rolls-Royce from Manhattan to his golf resort in Bedminster, N.J.

This was one of incidents cited by Lewandowski on Wednesday when asked by reporters to provide examples of Trump as a “real guy,” who might, say, buy things in a store or pump his own gas. He also cited Trump picking up the tab for staff at a pricey steakhouse and knowing the cost of items at McDonald’s.

“I shouldn’t tell the story because I’ll get in trouble, but I remember he was driving his Rolls-Royce from New York City one day up to the golf course in Bedminster — this was before Secret Service — and we were on the campaign,” said Lewandowski, Trump’s former campaign manager, referring to Secret Service protection, which Trump requested in November 2015 when he was running for president.
