When news broke about the surprising moment between French President Emmanuel Macron and his wife, Brigitte, on the tarmac in Hanoi, Vietnam, it quickly captured global attention — and naturally, President Donald Trump had something to say about it.
At a recent White House press conference, reporters couldn’t resist asking Trump for his take on the now-famous “plane door” incident. The moment in question? As the Macrons disembarked their plane, Brigitte appeared to gently—but noticeably—push Emmanuel’s face away from the door, sparking a viral video that had everyone talking.
French officials later downplayed the moment, calling it a lighthearted joke between the couple. But when asked for “marriage advice” for the Macrons, Trump didn’t hold back his trademark wit:
“Make sure the door remains closed. That was not good.”
The room burst into laughter, and Trump followed up with a warm update:
“I spoke with Emmanuel. They’re doing great. They’re two really good people.”
Though he admitted he wasn’t sure exactly what caused the cheeky shove, Trump reassured everyone the couple was fine and the incident was no cause for concern.
Social media quickly chimed in, with reactions like:
- “That’s hilarious — but good advice! Keep the door closed.”
- “Best response ever.”
- “I don’t care who you are… that’s just funny!”
As the video continues to stir buzz worldwide, the French President insists the moment was all in good fun, nothing more. And while Brigitte chose the plane railing over Trump’s offered arm during disembarkation, it seems the minor drama has since settled.
Still, Trump’s cheeky “marriage tip” has become the talk of the town. What’s your take on his comments? Drop your thoughts in the Facebook comments below!
