President Donald Trump complimented a “beautiful” and “cute”-sounding 8-year-old girl, whom he also called “honey,” during a Christmas Eve phone call.
Trump, 79, was taking calls from children throughout the country who were asking about Santa Claus, as is tradition. While the president was in Mar-a-Lago over the holiday period, back in Washington, D.C., the Department of Justice was frantically trying to complete its delayed and widely criticized release of its files about dead sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, a former friend of Trump’s.
Seated beside the first lady, Trump was put on the phone with Anna, an 8-year-old from North Carolina.
