They asked about the junk thrown out the window.

I don't think Trump was aware because someone showed him the clip. Trump said the windows are sealed. Keep in mind the president is not responsible for the WH grounds and day to day operations.

So, I think the verdict is still out about the window. It seems weird things happen at the WH from time to time. I still think construction workers tossed stuff to pick up later as they often do.

Update from Daily Beast and WH: It wasn't AI. Keep in mind, Trump doesn't "own" the WH and it's a big place.


White House Reveals Why Mystery Objects Were Thrown Out Window

The White House said in a statement to Time on Tuesday that the mysterious bag drop was due to “regular maintenance.”

“It was a contractor who was doing regular maintenance while the President was gone,” the White House official said.

The video was widely shared on social media on Monday, with commenters poking fun at the president as speculation swirls that his health has taken a nosedive.

President Trump will make an announcement on Tuesday afternoon focused on the U.S. Space Force—but his physical appearance is likely to steal the show.
