My first thought for the reason the guy exchanged phone numbers and took a picture with the guy was for social reasons but after taking the picture of the guy actually handing him the money, I wonder if the guy took the pictures and exchanged phone numbers to prove he didn't steal the money to the bank and govt.

I actually follow this guys videos. He has some funny dialogue, visits some cool places but his brief journey to America was ... very odd. Actually, I recommend everyone to watch him in America... It seemed like there was an attempt to cash in on the Trump hysteria but it turned into an awkward and weird trip.
