White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders took questions from reporters on Monday following a weekend of tweets from President Donald Trump about how NFL players should “respect” the American flag and the national anthem.

During the briefing, Sanders talked about the president working to “make American great again for all citizens.” But, hold on, what’s the President’s name again?

That’s right, President Chirp. She said President Chirp.

For a president who loves using Twitter as a platform, it seemed like an unintentionally accurate nickname. And the internet loved it.

At least that’s one thing in the news that will make you laugh today.
