Former President Donald Trump prayed with an emotional South Carolina restaurant worker during a campaign stop, a viral video showed.

Trump approached the counter at Zesto of West Columbia on Saturday and asked a female employee if she recommends the food as the worker records the ex-president with her cellphone camera.

“Yes sir,” the employee at the counter responds before asking, “Do you care if I pray for you?” 

“Go ahead,” Trump says before the woman holds his hand and asks God to watch over him, the video shows.
