President Donald Trump was asked at a White House press conference about a viral incident involving French President Emmanuel Macron and his wife, Brigitte, in Hanoi, Vietnam.
As Macron exited his plane, Brigitte appeared to shove his face playfully—an act the French President later said was a joke. The moment quickly went viral.
When asked for “marriage tips” for the Macrons, Trump joked, “Make sure the door remains closed. That was not good,” prompting laughter. He added that he had spoken to Macron and confirmed the couple was doing well, calling them “two really good people.”
Reactions online praised Trump’s humor, with many calling his response “hilarious.” Despite the buzz, Macron downplayed the incident, saying it was being blown out of proportion. As he disembarked, he offered his arm to Brigitte, who opted to use the railing instead.
