President Trump surprised the media by taking questions from reporters during a signing event in the Oval Office, where he signed executive orders and pardons related to supporters convicted for their involvement in the January 6 riot. This Q&A session lasted around 45 minutes and marked a notable difference from the previous four years when the media often covered up concerns about President Biden's cognitive health.
Will Scharf, Trump’s former attorney and newly appointed White House staff secretary, presented the documents for the executive orders and pardons, while also explaining their details to Trump and the reporters present.
Reporters reacted strongly to Trump’s open interaction. Matt Viser from The Washington Post commented on how Trump frequently answered questions, which was rare for Biden during his presidency. Mike Glenn from the Washington Times found it striking to see Trump engaging openly while signing documents, contrasting Biden's approach over the last four years. Axios reporter Marc Caputo noted an interesting moment where Trump almost read a letter from Biden that he found in the Resolute Desk but decided against it. NewsNation's Kellie Meyer emphasized that this was Trump’s first spontaneous press conference upon returning to the White House, where he answered many questions while signing various orders.
During the session, Trump addressed topics including the January 6 pardons, family pardons related to Biden, foreign policy, and even Elon Musk and cryptocurrency, while he continued to sign the documents.
