Trump's advice to Macron after airplane shoving video: 'Make sure the door remains closed'
President Donald Trump offered some advice for French President Emmanuel Macron after a video of Macron’s wife apparently shoving him in the face in front of an open plane door went viral: "Make sure the door remains closed."
Trump downplayed the incident when asked about it May 30 during an Oval Office event.
"He's fine too. They're fine," Trump said. "They're two really good people I know them very well."
Macron called speculation about the incident with his wife, Brigitte Macron, "nonsense," saying it showed the couple "joking around." The clip was taken after the couple landed in Hanoi, Vietnam, as part of their Southeast Asia tour.
Trump brought Elon Musk into the Oval Office May 30 to praise his work with the Department of Government Efficiency as the billionaire steps away from the job. Musk had a black eye, which he said was delivered by his young son.
"I wasn't anywhere near France," Musk joked.
