Joe Biden went to this barracks, 23 years to the day after the attacks, to support the unity of the country, explained Andrew Bates, the spokesman of the White House. “In a friendly way, he gave a hat to a Trump supporter, who then told him that in the same spirit, the president should wear a Trump hat. I wore it for a short time”, tried to justify the spokesperson.
“Thank you for your support”
The video sequence, which has taken social media by storm, shows Mr. Biden all smiles, already wearing a cap, covering it with this Trump cap that was just handed to him. Republicans immediately exploited this image of the President of the United States wearing the distinctive emblem of the Trumpists.
