During a recent press conference at Joint Base Andrews military facility in Maryland, President Donald Trump was unexpectedly struck in the face with a microphone. The incident took place as Trump, 78, was fielding questions from reporters after delivering a speech at the Department of Justice in Washington, D.C. In a video of the incident, a boom microphone suddenly appeared from below, hitting Trump in the mouth. Trump reacted by tilting his head back and giving a disapproving look to the person holding the microphone, who apologized. Trump then made a lighthearted remark about the incident, suggesting it would make for a memorable television moment. Social media reactions varied, with some questioning the security measures in place and others expressing sympathy for the crew member involved. People have reached out to the White House for comment on the matter.
