Trump Jokes After Being Accidentally Hit by Reporter’s Microphone

The incident occurred during a press event at Joint Base Andrews, where the president laughed off the mishap despite conservative concerns over security.

President Trump was accidentally struck in the face by a boom microphone while answering questions from reporters at Joint Base Andrews on Friday.
The microphone, covered with a windscreen known as a 'dead cat,' brushed his face, prompting Trump to joke, 'She just made television tonight.'
Trump's reaction, including a raised eyebrow and playful glare, was captured on video and quickly went viral on social media.
Some conservative commentators expressed concerns about security protocols, referencing past threats against the president.
Trump continued the press conference, addressing topics such as the Ukraine ceasefire and the Gaza hostage situation, before boarding Air Force One.
