BUSTED! Video debunks Politico viral tweet of Trump throwing a hat at the Easter Egg Roll
By now you’ve probably seen or read about this alleged incident at the White House Easter Egg Roll yesterday where it appeared that President Trump, after autographing a MAGA hat, threw the hat to a different kid in the crowd. From Politico:

Except, this video from a different angle show that the president tossed the hat back to the same teen who handed it to him in the first place. Focus on the boy in the light blue dress shirt with light khaki pants:

Let's hope Trump manages North Korea with more competence and finesse than he showed in another hard task–the Easter Egg Roll. https://t.co/mxFUD0KWJD
