Most adults are well-practiced at handing out Halloween candy for trick-or-treaters on Halloween.

For a U.S. President, the tradition of handing candy to trick-or-treaters at the White House is far easier than negotiating trade deals with foreign countries, deescalating international and domestic conflicts, and working to get support for policy.

Trump still managed to make it awkward.

The President and First Lady Melania Trump were giving candy to a child dressed as one of the Minions from Pixar's Despicable Me.

Instead of placing the candy in the child's bag, they inexplicably placed it atop the head of the child's inflatable costume, sending the sweets sliding into the bag of a nearby Spider-Man.

However, people had some ideas.



We just hope the minion got their candy.

Caitlyn Jenner Slammed For Hypocrisy After Revealing That She Asked Trump To Fix Gender On Her Passport So She Can Travel Again

Former Olympian Caitlyn Jenner recently revealed she can no longer travel internationally after the Trump administration's new passport policy required her to be marked as "male," and is receiving backlash for writing a letter to President Donald Trump asking him to get it changed.

Trump, who turns 80 in June, was discussing his administration's pledge that Social Security benefits would be tax-free when he claimed that "seniors are loving me" and proceeded to ramble incoherently.
