ISLAMABAD: White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt faced a series of questions on Tuesday from children gathered in the briefing room.
What is President Trump’s favorite order at McDonald’s? What is the president’s favorite ice cream? Who is his favorite president, besides himself?
According to The Hill, the White House hosted the children of journalists and staffers in the building for Take Our Sons and Daughters to Work Day. First lady Melania Trump also interacted with children in the Rose Garden who were doing arts and crafts, and Leavitt hosted a briefing for kids where they got to ask questions about the president.
“Favourite ice cream”
“How many people has he fired?” one child asked.
Leavitt replied with a laugh that one person left their job, but so far, the staff is working together well.
The press secretary told another questioner that Trump “loves McDonald’s hamburgers and French fries.”
Asked what his favourite ice cream is, Leavitt told the kids that she’s seen Trump eat ice cream sundaes with chocolate sauce.
“Who is Donald Trump’s favourite president, besides himself?” asked one children.
“I think that perhaps he would say George Washington,” Leavitt said, joking that Trump would probably say himself otherwise.
