Twitter users had a field day after President Donald Trump hugged Washington Nationals catcher Kurt Suzuki during his World Series-winning team’s celebratory visit to the White House on Monday.
Trump hugged Suzuki from behind as the player ― who was wearing a Trump campaign “Make America Great Again” hat ― addressed fans from a lectern.
The bizarre incident soon became a meme, with many people likening it to that particular moment between Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet’s characters Jack and Rose in the hit 1997 movie “Titanic.”
Kurt Suzuki: the umpiring has been atrocious these first 6 games.
Trump: I agree. I think I can fix it for game 7. I would like you to do us a favor though. pic.twitter.com/JyG22WrZ8V— Deer Chair (@deer_chair) November 4, 2019
Are they recreating that Janet Jackson Rolling Stone Magazine cover?
