It is…possible…that someone whose username on instagram is “prolife.spiderman” is more interested in the appearance of the needs of the pregnant being attended to than to the sordid accounting of actually making sure that happens.
If his claims of a Turning Point USA connection aren’t lies; there may also be some background money involved(more likely in covering his activities than in actually reaching a poor; of course).

It’s also possible that if enough people hear about the pregnant woman, some will step forward and donate to her.

Gotta have big balls to attempt that.
i don’t think testicular size has anything to do with this level of performative assholery and sheer idiocy. the knock-on being the additional information given upthread that points to the true nature of his stunt.
to me, that points to the miniscule nature of his thinking and shallowness of his “cause”.
