2025/11/04

He did it again Fresh off President Donald Trump’s successful whirlwind trip to Asia, he arrived back at the White House just in time to greet young Halloween trick-or-treaters. Rather than “retiring to the basement” in exhaustion after a week of intense negotiations, Trump stood by the door to personally greet the kids at the annual White House event.
