Donald Trump Allegedly Got Angry At Melania Trump During A College Football Game
President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump recorded a yet another "handgate" moment and netizens made fun of both. Videos of the FLOTUS yanking her hand away from POTUS grasp went viral on social media.
The couple, recently, attended the game between Louisiana State University and Clemson at the College Football Playoff National Championship in New Orleans. They were received warmly by the audience who shouted "USA, USA!" while they walk into the field to wave at the crowd.
But, the First Couple's appearance created tons of memes and GIFs on social media after they were caught again in another "handgate" moment. Before the game started, the President and Melania took the center field for the singing of the national anthem.
As they took their positions, Melania was smiling until Trump tried to hold her hand. She quickly jerked his hand away that stunned the audience and it seems like even the president.
Others, however, have different opinions on what happened between the two at the time. They think its the president who yanked his wife's hand and not the other way around.
"[Looks like] someone is a little stressed out about the impeachment... What a cute couple if you think 'angry dictator' is cute," a netizen commented. The commenter was referring to the imminent impeachment hearing at the Senate, not to mention the growing pressure on the Trump administration on the crisis in Iran.
Another noted that it was Trump who looked angry at his wife in the video. Watch the video below at 2:18 mark and be the judge.
Aside from hilarious comments and memes from netizens, many also said since awkward moments like this happened many times in the past, Donald and Melania should have learned their lesson that the public is watching. They advised the couple that it would be best if they would keep their hands to themselves.
Overall, the football game night of the Trumps wasn't all bad. While it's true that Trump handshake with actor Vince Vaughn sparked controversy, the First Couple did receive a more cordial welcome from the football fans in NOLA than the last time they watched a game in Washington D.C. last year.
Trump met with loud boos when he was introduced at the World Series. Some even chanted "Lock him up!" The President went out to watch a game after he announced earlier that same day that ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, had been killed by American operatives.
