Trump Mocked On Twitter After He Can’t Quite Describe The White House
President Donald Trump on Monday couldn’t seem to figure out how to describe the White House.
Speaking before the traditional Easter Egg Roll, Trump said:
“I want to thank the White House Historical Association and all of the people that work so hard with Melania, with everybody, to keep this incredible house or building, or whatever you want to call it — because there really is no name for it; it is special — and we keep it in tip-top shape. We call it sometimes tippy-top shape. And it’s a great, great place.”
The comments about the Executive Mansion quickly earned the president some attention on social media.
This bunny is all of us when he says “this house or building or whatever you call it. There’s really no name for it.” #itsliterallycalledthewhitehouse pic.twitter.com/tUEWNxChqE

Your tippy-top hurts. There is no word for it.

IT HAS A NAME. IT’S THE WHITE HOUSE.

Hey Trump, the name you are looking for is The White House.
You literally used the name of it seconds earlier.
...and don't ever refer to it as "tippy-top shape". pic.twitter.com/6PB3kp6Z9l— Red T Raccoon (@RedTRaccoon) April 2, 2018
Hope everyone in The @Whitehouse, Sorry I mean, The Tippy-Top Shape, special building thing or what ever you people call it are having a tip-top day, today at the Easter egg roll.

Why can’t anything just be normal? All you need: a few thank you’s & Happy Easter. Instead, a weird rant about whether the White House is “a house or a building” and a monologue on how he tries to keep it in “tippy top shape” before bragging to kids about military funding. https://t.co/c7grZf3bkw
