Donald Trump had an unexpected incident at a press conference on Friday (March 14) at Andrews United Base in Maryland. While speaking to reporters, including in Gaza, the booming microphones accidentally hit Trump’s face.
The microphone comes with a blurred windshield called the “Dead Cat” that contacts Trump’s lips and leaves his cheeks, causing him to flinch slightly. The incident caught Trump and the media at the rally off guard, leading to a brief silence.
Trump’s initial reaction to misfortune was a mixture of surprise and humor. After initially glaring at the reporter in charge of the microphone, he quipped, “She only made the TV tonight. She just became a big story tonight.”

The microphone operator’s identity has not been revealed and he apologized for the accident. The moment quickly spread on social media, causing various reactions from supporters and critics.
While some see it as a potential security issue, others see it as an embarrassing accident in the press. Despite the unexpected interruption, Trump continued to hold a press conference to resolve issues such as the ongoing conflict in Ukraine and discussions about Hamas’ holding of Israeli hostages.
Trump spent a coordinated protest on Saturday (March 25), called “postcard to Trump”, where opponents sent postcards to the White House, expressing opposition.
He also reportedly launched a massive strike against the Hottis in Yemen in response to their attacks in the Red Sea. He warned that if they do not stop the attack and send a harsh warning to Iran to stop supporting Hushis, “hell will rain.”
In addition, he signed a stop spending bill that avoided partial government closures. The bill was passed by Congress earlier this week.
