The Trump White House called a brief lunch lid until 1 p.m. on Thursday, a routine pause that stands in stark contrast to the days when Joe Biden's handlers would call early lids to shuffle their cognitively declining boss away from cameras and questions.
A Working President
For those unfamiliar with White House terminology, a "lid" simply means no scheduled events or press coverage for a designated period. Under President Trump, these brief pauses are exactly that—brief. The 45th and now 47th President has maintained a grueling schedule since returning to the Oval Office in January 2025, tackling everything from the border crisis to slashing wasteful government spending through Elon Musk's DOGE initiative.
Remember when the Biden regime would call "lids" before noon, sometimes canceling entire days of presidential activities? Those dark days of a part-time president are over, folks. President Trump continues to demonstrate the energy and commitment that Americans voted for in November 2024.
The press pool, including reporters from legacy media outlets, remains on standby at the White House as the administration prepares for afternoon activities. Stay tuned, Patriots—with this president, the news never stops.
