MANAGE SUBSCRIPTIONS   |   UNSUBSCRIBE   |   VIEW ONLINE   Trump kept clapping into the microphone during the State of the Union and Twitter wasn't having it by Allan Smith on Jan 30, 2018, 10:04 PM Advertisement President Donald Trump kept clapping directly into his microphone during his first State of the Union address. Twitter erupted over it. No matter who is president, one thing stays consistent during a State of the Union address — there is a ton of clapping. Senators, congressmen, party leaders, guests, and both the president and vice president will spend a significant portion of the speech clapping after the president delivers lines. During President Donald Trump's first State of the Union address, one person's clapping overpowered the room full of applause. It was the president himself. And it was because he kept clapping directly into the microphone. Is it just me or is the refrain of the soundtrack of this #SOTU Trump clapping maybe just a bit too loud and a bit too close to the mic? pic.twitter.com/Mh1wKizrjU — Dave Orrick (@DaveOrrick) January 31, 2018 And Twitter was not having it. Can Paul politely tell Trump to stop clapping into the mic? — Justin Baragona (@justinbaragona) January 31, 2018 No seriously...someone on the House floor please make Trump stop clapping into the mic. Pls. — Victoria M. Walker (@vikkie) January 31, 2018 #trump STOP CLAPPING into the mic!!!!!! Damn!!! — Chef Casey Thompson (@ChefCaseyT) January 31, 2018 Really can't handle the sound of Trump clapping for himself in the mic every 2 seconds. #makeitstop #SOTU pic.twitter.com/E3ZdEHwqL1 — Wardah Khalid (@wardahkhalid_) January 31, 2018 Dear Facebook, Would you kindly take a moment from tinkering with your algorithm/ruining my life to enable immediate captioning in live streams because TRUMP CLAPPING INTO THE MIC IS QUITE THE LOUD SITCH AND MUTING WOULD BE TIGHT. Best, Me — Kenny Thapoung (@KTpoung) January 31, 2018 The whole stand up and clap and the people who pick and choose when is humorous to me. Like ahh not much of a fan of that Ill sit this one out haha. P.S. Trump clapping near the mic though is getting a little annoying. #SOTU — James Blair (@jamesblair06) January 31, 2018 Me when Trump starts clapping directly into the mic #SOTU pic.twitter.com/jyExQylYqt — Ashley Marie Callery (@tweetmemaybejb) January 31, 2018 Really wish Trump would stop clapping in the mic 😒 #StateOfTheUnion — Trent StayShiny (@TrentStayShiny) January 31, 2018 SEE ALSO: What to expect at Trump's first State of the Union address   Share the latest business news with your network:    Email sent to: nguyenvu1187.love5@blogger.com   |   Manage your email preferences   |   Unsubscribe Terms of Service   |   Privacy Policy Business Insider. 150 Fifth Avenue, New York, NY 10011
