Donald Trump was in the middle of giving a speech in the Oval Office when little Travis Smith (2) decided it had been nice. The two-year-old boy stole the show with a classic tantrum that only toddlers can do. As he rolled theatrically across the carpet, those present could barely contain their laughter.

For once it wasn’t the American president who got all the attention, but naughty little Travis. The White House saw the humor in it and shared a photo of the boy lying flat on the ground, with the appropriate caption: “ALMOST FRIDAY.”


The actual reason for the visit was very special, and especially heart-warming. The US president had invited Travis, his mother and a number of medical experts to praise a new drug that has completely restored the boy’s hearing.

“That’s really incredible,” Trump said of the treatment. “He was 100 percent deaf, but he was given this miracle drug and now he can hear his mother, Sierra, say, ‘I love you.’”
