This isn’t the first time Donald Trump has spoken his mind a little too boldly…<\/strong><\/h1>\n

The US President has found himself in hot water once again, yet this time it’s after he poked fun at a young child.<\/p>\n

Donald Trump invited many young athletes to the Oval Office on 5 May to celebrate the return of the Presidential Physical Fitness Award, which he recently revived as part of his plan to bring back a fitness test in schools.<\/p>\n

Several athletes were also in attendance, including Gary Player, Bryson DeChambeau, Amani Oruwariye and Noah Syndergaard.<\/p>\n

During the get-together, the 79-year-old president focused his attention on one young girl, asking her which sports she likes to play.<\/p>\n

“I play volleyball, and then in the summer I\u2019m trying to get into soccer,” the child replies, shyly.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Surprisingly, however, Trump then put a slight downer on the conversation, pointing out that the girl might struggle to continue playing volleyball as she ages, given her rather petite size.<\/p>\n

“And with your height, do you smash the ball, the volleyball. Do you get up high? Can you jump high?” he questioned the girl.<\/p>\n

Hesitantly, she answered, ‘Not very’, to which the Republican leader quipped: “Soccer might be better.”<\/p>\n

After his remark was met with a roar of laughter from older attendees, Trump continued to add: “I\u2019m just looking, I think she\u2019d be a great soccer player.”<\/p>\n

In spite of the politician going on to tell the little one, ‘That\u2019s good. Good luck, OK?’, he was subsequently subjected to mass criticism.<\/p>\n

Footage of the strange interaction started circulating on the internet, prompting backlash from those who accused Trump of quashing the girl’s ambitions.<\/p>\n

“Trump just mocked a little girl for being short, and stomped on her ambitions,” one X user hit out.<\/p>\n

Another wrote: “Maybe not everyone can be a volleyball player. Maybe suggesting an alternative isn\u2019t the horror you think it is. When you\u2019re little and wanted to be Troy Aikman, who deflected you to ‘internet douchebag’?”<\/p>\n

“Imagine someone told Ivanka she was too short to play a sport she loved. Trump would’ve lost his mind,” a third alleged. “But for this little girl? Just another joke. Another audience to perform for. Another chance to remind everyone that he doesn’t lift people up.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

“He pushes them down to feel taller. That’s not a leader. That’s a bully.”<\/p>\n

Another continued: “The way my heart actually broke for her… kids should be told they can do anything, not that they\u2019re ‘too short’ for their dreams. Literally so unnecessary.”<\/p>\n

The most bizarre moments from Trump’s second term<\/strong><\/h1>\n

He won’t deport Prince Harry because ‘he has enough problems with Meghan’<\/strong><\/p>\n

In early 2025, president Trump was asked during an interview with the New York Post if he had plans to kick Prince Harry out of the US amid ongoing questions about his immigration status.<\/p>\n

“I don\u2019t want to do that. I\u2019ll leave him alone. He\u2019s got enough problems with his wife,” he said. “She\u2019s terrible.”<\/p>\n

Saying Volodymyr Zelenskyy was ‘all dressed up’ in military attire<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ahead of a 2025 meeting in the Oval Office, the Ukrainian president wore a black, long-sleeved polo shirt featuring the Ukrainian trident – after which he’d vowed not to wear a suit until Russia’s invasion of his country would come to an end.<\/p>\n

Trump jokily said when he greeted Zelenskyy: “Oh look, you\u2019re all dressed up.”<\/p>\n
