Melania nudges Trump as he forgets to place hand over chest during national anthem
The moment was quickly captured by the cameras pointing in their directions.
WASHINGTON (Dunya News) - US President made yet another gaffe during the White House Easter Egg Roll.
Trump forgot to put his hand over his chest as the first family listened to the National Anthem on the Truman Balcony.
Melania Trump then instantly nudged her husband’s hand to remind him to place it on his heart.
Trump while understanding the hint, promptly placed the hand on his heart like his wife and son Barron as the Star Spangled Banner played out.

The U.S. Flag Code states that individuals in uniform, members of the Armed Forces, and veterans should give the military salute during the national anthem. Anyone else present should face the flag and “stand at attention with their right hand over the heart.”
