President Donald Trump couldn’t resist turning a fun moment into a roast — and a sales pitch — all at once.

The president yucked it up with a group of kids who were coloring pictures at the annual White House Easter Egg Roll on Monday. Trump joked that the kids might as well turn his signature into a side hustle, telling them he could sign autographs for them.

“Then tonight, you could sell them for $25,000 on eBay,” Trump joked, drawing laughs from the crowd. 

But the comedian-in-chief wasn’t done yet. The president rarely passes up an opportunity to shade his predecessor.

EXCLUSIVE: TRUMP WHITE HOUSE TORPEDOES BIDEN ATTEMPT TO SHIELD ‘AUTOPEN PRESIDENCY’ FILES

“Biden would use the autopen,” Trump said. “He was incapable of signing his name, so they’d follow him around with this big machine. You know what it was called? An autopen!”

The roast of Biden wasn’t the only viral moment. At one point, a young boy wandered behind Trump as he sat at a table and blurted out, “Donald Trump, you’re the best president!” 

To which the president responded: “Thank you, honey. I agree.”

WHITE HOUSE MARKS HOLY WEEK, EASTER WITH DAYS OF PRAYER CENTERED ON RELIGIOUS LIBERTY

The theme of this year’s Easter Egg Roll was “patriotic spirit.” The South Lawn was packed with kid-friendly attractions, from the traditional egg roll to hands-on stations like military card writing, space-themed activities, egg decorating and even mini golf.

According to the Office of the First Lady, the event aimed to bring families together to celebrate Easter while highlighting the values of freedom and tradition central to the American story.

There was more fun to be had, including an AI-Creation Station, flower bouquet building, a flight lab, a sensory-friendly egg hunt — and live chickens.

America250 hosted an immersive experience celebrating America’s historic monuments through a “George the Star’s Journey” activity.

Spotted at the Egg Roll were some of the president’s children, including son Eric Trump and his wife Laura Trump, as well as daughter Tiffany and her husband Michael Boulos.

President Donald Trump has sparked disbelief and mockery after an extraordinary White House briefing on Monday that critics claimed was more reminiscent of an SNL skit.

Trump took the White House podium to detail the ‘breathtaking’ rescue of two US pilots shot down over Iran, showing the scope and resolve of the American fighting force.

YouTube personality and comedian Jimmy Dore led the charge, calling the administration’s narrative a ‘clown show’ after Trump claimed total military dominance despite the recent downing of a US fighter jet.

‘Pretending that getting a fighter jet shot down by a military that Trump said was ‘Completely Decimated’ as a victory is pure clown show,’ Dore wrote on X. ‘Iran is humiliated? Everything they say is projection and a confession.’

Other high–traffic financial accounts on X echoed the sentiment, with one viral post stating: ‘That was one of the craziest press conferences Trump has ever given. Absolute comedy.’

The comments come as Trump signals a frantic, optimistic push for a peace deal with what he calls a ‘decapitated’ Iranian regime – while simultaneously authorizing the most ‘ferocious’ wave of American strikes to date.

And he wouldn’t disclose whether he’ll be winding down the bombing campaign. 

‘I don’t know. I can’t tell. It depends what they do,’ Trump said, further sparking confusion. 

Trump also used the briefing to issue a terrifying final warning to Tehran, setting a hard deadline for Tuesday at 8:00 p.m.

‘The entire country could be taken out in one night – and that night might be tomorrow night,’ Trump said. He warned that if a deal isn’t reached, he will order the total demolition of Iran’s civilian infrastructure, vowing to leave the nation in the ‘Stone Age.’

‘Every bridge in Iran will be decimated by tomorrow night… every power plant will be out of business, burning, exploding and never to be used again,’ Trump warned, adding that it would take the Iranian people ‘100 years to rebuild’ without American help.

Army Vet Clay Harmon called it ‘absolute madness’ on X. 

‘Trump just told Iran to open the strait or face bombing Tuesday. No lawyers. No press conference. straight from the president. When did we last have a president like this?’ Harmon reacted.

The President claimed he had already ‘road–tested’ this strategy, boasting that he recently ordered the destruction of Iran’s largest bridge in just 10 minutes to ‘force compliance’ when negotiations stalled.

Trump also floated a plan for the US to seize control of the Strait of Hormuz and charge global shipping ‘tolls’ for passage.

‘Why shouldn’t we? We’re the winner,’ Trump reasoned, comparing the strategy to his administration’s handling of Venezuelan oil. ‘They are militarily defeated. The only thing they have is the psychology of, oh, we’re gonna drop a couple of mines in the water.’

Still while Secretary of War Pete Hegseth stood at the same podium Monday claiming that US strikes are ramping up to record–breaking volumes every single day, the Pentagon’s own data suggests otherwise.

‘Per the President’s direction, today will be the largest volume of strikes since day one… Tomorrow, even more than today,’ Hegseth told reporters.

However, figures from US Central Command show that the pace of operations has actually fluctuated over the last three weeks, maintaining a steady average of roughly 250 strikes per day rather than the exponential daily increase claimed by the administration.

In one of the briefing’s most notable moments, Trump said that Iranian civilians are actually ‘begging’ the US to continue the bombardment.

‘We’ve had numerous intercepts. Please keep bombing,’ Trump claimed, asserting that civilians living near blast zones would rather suffer through the strikes than live under the current regime. 

He contrasted the ‘precision’ of US forces, bragging that he sees ‘better with goggles at night’ than in daylight, with the ‘brutality’ of regime snipers who he claimed shot female protesters ‘right between the eyes.’

Trump didn’t reserve his vitriol for Iran alone, turning his sights on ‘disappointing’ European allies. He mocked the United Kingdom’s offer of ‘two old, broken aircraft carriers’ and slammed NATO for sitting on the sidelines.

‘I think it’s a mark on NATO that will never disappear,’ Trump said, before boasting that American technology is so superior it recently intercepted 101 out of 101 missiles fired at the USS Abraham Lincoln.

As the 8pm ET Tuesday deadline looms, the world watches to see if Trump’s ‘instincts’ lead to a historic peace deal or the ‘obliteration’ he so vividly described.

Donald Trump has hailed the relentless bombing of Iran alongside a giant Easter Bunny as hundreds of children descended on the White House for the annual Egg Roll.

The President was joined by Melania on the balcony facing the South Lawn as he addressed attendees about the ongoing conflict, including a daring rescue mission over the weekend to save an airman lost behind enemy lines.

‘What about the rescue that took place yesterday, that’s something that you rarely see,’ Trump told the crowd on Monday, adding that it had been pulled off despite a ‘very strong’ enemy.

‘Not so strong like they were about a month ago,’ Trump said, referring to the devastating US-Israel strikes that have decimated Iran’s leadership since they were launched on February 28. 

The President also told reporters at the event he tried to get guns to the people of Iran so they could help him enact regime change in the country, but the plan went sideways after the weapons were stolen by an intermediary. 

‘You know we sent some guns … they were supposed to go to the people so they could fight back against these thugs … but the people that they sent them to kept them.’

‘I am very upset with a certain group of people and they will pay a big price for that,’ he added. 

Reports earlier this year indicated that the CIA was intent on arming the Kurds in northern Iran by the Iraq border as a part of the war. During the event, Trump reiterated: ‘We’ve had total regime change.’ 

The President also took aim at his former rival Joe Biden. 

Speaking with a child at a drawing table, the President detailed to the youth how Biden at times would sign executive actions and legislation. 

‘Biden was unable to sign his name, so they followed him around with this big machine,’ he explained to the child. 

Trump also autographed some drawings the children presented to him.

‘I could sign autographs for you guys, and then tonight, you could sell them for $25,000 on eBay,’ he told the youngsters. 

The President was also spotted carrying around a printed out rendering of an arch that he wants to build by the Arlington National Cemetery. 

Dubbed Independence Arch, the white structure – which looks similar to Paris’ Arc de Triomphe – was first proposed by Trump in 2025. He was spotted showing off the ne rendering to friends before handing it off to a White House aide.  

Families draped in pastel suits and bright sundresses flooded the White House’s South Lawn for the annual Egg Roll on Monday as military bands blared through blue skies.   

Those in attendance were fortunate enough to score sought-after tickets, which were dispersed to Trump administration employees, friends and those lucky enough to win a ticket lottery. 

Some of the President’s grandchildren were also in attendance as Eric and Lara Trump brought their kids, Luke and Carolina, while Tiffany Trump and her husband, Michael Boulos, were spotted with their son, Alexander.

White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller and his wife, Katie, were also seen alongside their youngsters; while Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt was spotted with her son Niko. FBI Director Kash Patel, his country music singer girlfriend Alexis Wilkins and other top officials were there. 

The roll on the White House lawn began in 1878 under President Rutherford B Hayes after grouchy lawmakers in Congress banned children and their families from hurling eggs down Capitol Hill, citing concerns over the little feet damaging the landscaping. 

These days, the event draws tens of thousands of people to the White House, where children get to embark on a hunt for real eggs while their parents socialize and a Trump administration official hops around the grounds dressed as the Easter Bunny.  

The main event is the Easter Egg Roll – a traditional game where decorated, hard-boiled eggs are rolled across the White House lawn using just a spoon. The custom historically symbolizes the rolling away of the stone from Christ’s tomb.

In celebration of America’s 250th birthday this summer, the White House wanted the Easter event to drip with patriotic pageantry. 

The eggs for the roll have all been dyed red, white and blue.

Less patriotic, however, possibly more American, are the many corporate sponsors that flocked to the event: Meta hosted a booth on AI, YouTube gave out swag bags, The New York Stock Exchange sponsored a challenge coin creation station, and of course, Coca-Cola provided drinks, including Trump’s favorite – Diet Coke. 

Music was provided by the US Marine Band, Army Band, Navy Band, Air Force Band and the Revolutionary War recreating Army Old Guard Fife & Drum Corps. 

President Donald Trump said Iran negotiators made “a significant proposal, a significant step,” following the ultimatum he issued on Easter Sunday, but it is not “good enough.”

“They made a proposal, and it’s a significant proposal, a significant step,” Trump told reporters at the Easter Egg Roll on Monday, a White House tradition that comes amid the backdrop of war.

“It’s not good enough, but it’s a very significant step,” Trump continued. “They are negotiating now. And they have made a very significant step. We’ll see what happens.”

Trump’s media gaggle offered previews of Monday’s 1 p.m. news conference detailing the rescue of the downed airmen behind Iran’s enemies lines, saying the airmen “are both recovering very well” and Iran “got lucky” in downing their F-15e jet.

TRUMP PAUSES IRAN ENERGY PLANT STRIKES FOR 10 DAYS AS TALKS ‘GOING VERY WELL’

“You know what? When you do thousands and thousands of flights, and you have one plane shot down and not mortally, the two pilots got out – they got a little bit lucky,” Trump said. “And you know what? In a way you need a little bit of luck. Also, they got a little bit lucky. That’s all they got.”

Trump is warning some unspecificied consequences for refusing to “cry uncle” and come to heel and reopen the Strait of Hormuz to global oil trade.

“We are obliterating that country, and I hate to do it, but we’re obliterating, and they just don’t want to say uncle – they don’t want to cry, as the expression goes, uncle, but they will,” Trump said. “And if they don’t, they’ll have no bridges, they’ll have no power plants. They’ll have no anything.

TRUMP SAYS IRAN ‘NO LONGER A THREAT’ AFTER 32 DAYS — OUTLINES NEXT PHASE OF US WAR

“I won’t go further, because there are other things that are worse than those two.”

Trump did not rule out taking over Iran’s oil.

“If I had my choice, what would I like to do? Take the oil, because it’s there for the taking; there’s not a thing they can do about it,” Trump continued. “Unfortunately, the American people would like to see us come home. If it were up to me, I’d take the oil. I’d keep the oil.

WHY TRUMP FACES AN AGONIZING DECISION ON OBLITERATING IRAN’S OIL SUPPLY IF HE CAN’T GET A DEAL

“I would make plenty of money, and I’d also take care of the people of Iran much better than they’ve been taken care of. It’s been horrible.”

Trump pointed to the arrangement with Venezuela as a potential model for the next phase once Iran comes to heel, including the “lunatics” needing to give up their nuclear weapons aspirations.

“Hopefully it could be over with quickly,” Trump concluded before returning to the traditional White House Easter Egg Roll. “Again, there are lots of different alternatives. We have many alternatives.

“We could leave right now, and it would take them 15 years to rebuild what they have. We could leave right now, but I want to finish it up.”

President Donald Trump delivered a Good Friday message from the Resolute Desk celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ while declaring that religion is experiencing a “resurgence” across the United States in his second term.

“As I have often said, to be a great nation, you must have religion, and you must have God,” Trump said.

The president framed his message with faith as a central pillar of American strength, pointing to what he described as a broader cultural shift toward religion.

The video, shared via Truth Social on Good Friday, honored the Christian faith tradition and what he claims is a renewal of religion in the United States.

TRUMP ADMIN ISSUES NEW GUIDANCE TO PROTECT RELIGIOUS EXPRESSION ACROSS FEDERAL WORKFORCE

President Trump has often recalled his Presbyterian upbringing, attending Sunday school. He has previously credited his faith to his devout Scottish mother and a “very strong” but “great-hearted” father in remarks at the 2024 National Faith Summit.

“In churches across the nation on Sunday, the pews will be fuller, younger and more faithful than they have at any time in many, many years,” Trump said. “Religion is growing again in our country for the first time in decades.“

The president has invited prayer and faith back into the public square with both an America 250 prayer initiative and the establishment of the White House Faith Office early in his second term.

TRUMP TO SPEAK AT MUSEUM OF THE BIBLE ON RELIGIOUS LIBERTY IN EDUCATION

Trump said he’s “proud to join with Christians” during Holy Week in his address.

“This Holy Week, I’m proud to join with Christians across the country and around the world to celebrate the most glorious miracle in all of time — the resurrection of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ,” Trump said. 

“In his life, Christ displayed true humility. In His death, He modeled true love.”

The president also invoked scripture in his address, quoting John 3:16.

TARGETED FOR THEIR FAITH OVERSEAS, PERSECUTED CHRISTIANS GET A WHITE HOUSE WELCOME UNDER TRUMP

“As it says in Gospel of John, for God so loved the world that He gave His only son, for whoever believes in Him should not perish, but have eternal life,” Trump said.

President Trump’s outspoken approach to the Christian holiday serves as a foil to his predecessor. Former President Joe Biden most recently shared a brief three-paragraph statement during his tenure to celebrate the season in 2024.

Trump has been more candid in his approach to his faith since he survived an assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania, in July 2024.

“I believe that my life was saved that day in Butler for a very good reason,” he declared during his address to a joint session of Congress in 2025. “I was saved by God to make America great again. I believe that.”

The president ended his remarks by wishing everyone a blessed holiday.

“Happy Easter to all. May God bless you. May God bless the United States of America,” Trump concluded.

The White House did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.

The leaders of college sports’ most powerful conferences quickly aligned behind President Donald Trump’s latest executive order.

Commissioners from the Big Ten, SEC, ACC and Big 12 all released statements on social media Friday evening unanimously thanking Trump for his executive action. 

Trump’s EO directs federal agencies to potentially restrict funding for schools violating new, tighter rules on player transfers (limited to one) and eligibility (maximum five years), while curbing pay-for-play booster collectives and protecting women’s and Olympic sports funding.

The conferences struck a consistent tone of appreciation for federal involvement, coupled with a renewed call for Congress to establish national standards governing college athletics, particularly with respect to athlete compensation, employment status and name, image and likeness (NIL) rules.

Big 10 Commissioner Tony Petitti wrote, “The Big Ten Conference would like to thank President Trump for his leadership and continuing efforts to protect college athletics and joins him in urging Congress to quickly pass legislation addressing the critical issues undermining its long-term stability.

“Consistent with President Trump’s executive order, the bipartisan SCORE Act thoughtfully addresses name, image, and likeness for student-athletes, protecting academic and athletic opportunities provided through women’s and Olympic sports programs, and expands resources to support student-athletes on and off the field.

“We will continue to work with a broad coalition of college sports stakeholders and members of Congress to enact this legislation.”

SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey wrote, “The establishment and enforcement of consistent national standards for college athletics remains a top priority, and President Trump’s executive order provides important clarity to help ensure all programs operate under comparable policies.

“We are grateful for the President’s leadership and the continued, bipartisan engagement of members of the House and Senate on these key issues.

“We support House of Representatives approval of the SCORE Act and meaningful Senate consideration of similar legislation to preserve academic opportunity for student-athletes and the long-term future of college sports.”

Big 12 Commissioner Brett Yormark wrote, “Federal action is essential to protect the future of college athletics, and on behalf of the Big 12, we appreciate President Trump’s commitment to advancing a solution. To build on this momentum and provide long-term clarity and stability, Congress must now act.

“The bipartisan SCORE Act offers a comprehensive framework for many of the issues facing our industry, and I look forward to continue working with President Trump and Congress to enact meaningful reforms.”

ACC Commissioner Jim Phillips wrote, “We deeply thank President Trump and his administration’s ongoing commitment to protecting college athletics by issuing today’s executive order. Following the White House’s college sports roundtable, there continues to be significant momentum to preserve the athletic and academic opportunities for the next generation of student-athletes, and we appreciate the efforts.

“We remain optimistic that the SCORE Act, which would provide stability to college sports, will pass the House of Representatives in the near future.”

The executive order “directs Federal agencies to bolster the effectiveness of key college sports rules on transferring, eligibility, and pay-for-play by evaluating whether violations of such rules render a university unfit for Federal grants and contracts.”

It also says that a “five-year participation window” will be enforced, along with “structured transfer rules” and a “banning (of) improper financial arrangements including pay-for-play agreements facilitated by collectives and similar entities.”

Trump’s executive order comes roughly a month after he hosted a roundtable addressing several hot-button issues with notable sports figures and officials.

SCORE ACT RECEIVES SUPPORT FROM OVER 20 CONSERVATIVE GROUPS AS NIL REFORM FIGHT REVS UP

The SCORE Act was at the forefront of the roundtable. It was scheduled to be voted on in December, but the vote was canceled shortly before it was to take place.

The White House endorsed the act, but three Republicans — Byron Donalds of Florida, Scott Perry of Pennsylvania and Chip Roy of Texas — voted with Democrats not to bring the act to the floor. Democrats have largely opposed the bill, urging members of the House to vote against it.

The act would give the NCAA a limited antitrust exemption in hopes of protecting the NCAA from potential lawsuits over eligibility rules and would prohibit athletes from becoming employees of their schools. It prohibits schools from using student fees to fund NIL payments.

The president’s order from July prohibits athletes from receiving pay-to-play payments from third-party sources. However, the order did not impose any restrictions on NIL payments to college athletes by third-party sources. It also demands that schools account for preserving resources for the non-revenue sports.

A month before Trump’s order, a judge approved a settlement between the NCAA, its most powerful conferences and lawyers representing all Division I athletes. The deal means the NCAA will pay close to $2.8 billion in back damages over the next 10 years to college athletes who competed from 2016 to 2025. The settlement also allows college programs to pay athletes directly.

President Donald Trump gave a rare shout out to longtime critic, Republican Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul, on Thursday after he voted to approve plans for the new White House ballroom.

“I would like to thank the hardworking Commissioners and Staff of the National Capital Planning Commission, who just voted overwhelmingly, 8-1, to approve the magnificent White House Ballroom now rising on this Hallowed Ground,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

“I am pleased to announce that even Board Member Senator Rand Paul, known as an extraordinarily difficult vote, voted a strong YES.”

TRUMP PAUSES OIL EXEC SUMMIT TO PEEK AT WHITE HOUSE BALLROOM’S PROGRESS 

Paul and Trump share a contentious relationship, including Paul being highly critical of Trump’s tariff policies and Trump’s military attacks on Iran. In late March, he was the only Republican to vote in favor of a war powers resolution aiming to limit the president’s ability to continue foreign military intervention.

Trump and Paul have been sparring since the 2015 GOP primary, when they clashed during the first Republican debate in August 2015. The tension has flared since, including Trump calling Paul “sick Wacko” just in November. 

The ballroom still faces legal hurdles. On Tuesday, a federal judge halted the project, ruling that construction of the 90,000-square-foot ballroom must receive Congressional approval.

“The President of the United States is the steward of the White House for future generations of First Families. He is not, however, the owner!” Leon wrote in a 35-page ruling. “No statute comes close to giving the President the authority he claims to have.”

FEDERAL JUDGE ORDERS HALT TO TRUMP WHITE HOUSE BALLROOM PROJECT; DOJ APPEALS DECISION

The National Capital Planning Commission proceeded with the vote despite the ruling. The commission chair, Will Scharf, said at the start of Thursday’s meeting that the judge’s ruling only prevented construction of the project.

“We’ll move past that and continue our consideration of the East Wing modernization project,” he said.

The ballroom, which is being funded by private donors, is slated to be completed by 2028. However, the project’s end date remains unknown as the Trump administration plans to appeal the judge’s decision.

President Donald Trump is set to sign an executive order for college sports this week after hosting a roundtable addressing several hot-button issues last month.

CBS News reported that the order, which would be the second for Trump, could be signed as early as Friday. The outlet added that the order will aim to increase the NCAA’s control over athletes amid the new era of name, image, and likeness.

Last month, Trump hosted NCAA President Charlie Baker, former Alabama head football coach Nick Saban, New York Yankees President Randy Levine and each of the Power Four commissioners, among others at a roundtable. Trump called the roundtable to examine solutions to key challenges, including NCAA authority, NIL issues, collective bargaining, and governance concerns.

“This is the future, I think, beyond college sports. This is the future of colleges,” Trump said to kick off the roundtable. “The amount of money being spent and lost by otherwise very successful schools is astounding just in a short period of time. It’s only going to get worse. We have to save college sports, and, I believe, colleges.

“Crazy things are happening. … We have a seven-year freshman. We’re seeing things we’ve never seen before. College players not wanting to go pro because they make more money in college,” he added.

Trump said he’d write an executive order “based on great common sense.”

There was no formal meeting and no big announcement, just a brief phone call.

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said President Donald Trump informed her she had the job in a simple post-election call, telling her: “Oh, by the way, you know, you’re going to be the White House press secretary, right?”

Speaking at a Turning Point USA event at George Washington University on Thursday evening, Leavitt described the moment as “the most anti-climatic thing ever” and said the job offer came without any formal process.

“About a week after the election, we were on the phone about something, the president and me, just chit chatting,” Leavitt said.

“And it was the most anti-climatic thing ever. He goes, ‘Oh, by the way, you know, you’re going to be the White House press secretary, right?’” Leavitt said, to which she responded, “Oh, okay.”

“And he said, ‘So about that other thing, what do you think about that? What should we do? What should we say?’”

“That was it. That’s how I got the job,” she said.

Leavitt added there was “no pomp and circumstance,” describing the moment as “true Donald Trump fashion.”

Leavitt said she had worked on Trump’s 2024 campaign after losing her congressional race in New Hampshire and was serving as a spokesperson before being tapped for the role following the election.

“There really wasn’t a process,” Leavitt said. “I thought, I hope I’ll get a job. I don’t know if I will.”

Tiger Woods had at least one friend to lean on shortly after his car crash that wound up in his vehicle rolled over.

Bodycam footage obtained by Fox News Digital showed Woods hanging up his phone, then telling an officer he was “talking to the president.”

After the crash, Woods took a phone call and walked down a street for a moment. Woods walked back and forth on the phone before an officer called him to come back over.

“Mr. Woods, let me get you to hang with us down here, please.”

“Thank you so much. Alright, you got it. Thank you, bye,” Woods said as he ended his phone call.

Woods then asked the officer to repeat what he said, which the officer did.

“Yeah, I was just talking to the president,” Woods said calmly.

The shameless plug did not help matters in this situation, as Woods was arrested for driving under the influence. Despite Woods blowing “triple-zeroes” on a breathalyzer, Woods showed signs of impairment and was found with two pills of hydrocodone, a prescription opioid for pain relief.

Woods previously told law enforcement prior to the field sobriety tests that he underwent seven back surgeries and “over 20 operations on his leg.” He told law enforcement that “I take a few” prescription medications. In 2021, he got into a wreck that resulted in serious leg injuries that kept him off the golf course for the entire year.

President Donald Trump voiced his continued support for Woods, saying in a recent interview that the five-time Masters champion “lives a life of pain.”

“He lives a life of pain. He has a lot of pain. He’s an amazing guy. He’s an amazing athlete. He does have pain,” Trump added Tuesday of Woods. “He doesn’t have an alcohol problem, but he does have pain.”

Shortly after the crash, Trump labeled Woods as a “very close friend of mine” with “some difficulty.” Woods dates Trump’s former daughter-in-law, Vanessa, the mother of the president’s granddaughter Kai.
