People can’t get over these videos of Donald Trump clapping

Donald Trump’s 90-minute State of the Union address covered a range of issues, from North Korea and immigration to imploring Congress to “remove federal employees who undermine the public trust or fail the American people” – a worrying precedent to set.

Millions of people around the world tuned in and a lot of them noticed the president’s clapping.

You see, he was clapping a lot. At his own speech.

It’s basically ‘liking’ your own tweet, except in real life.

We get it. Self-congratulatory actions are probably in the How To Be A President handbook, but still. Did it have to be quite so frequent?

According to USA Today, he clapped for himself loads of times – way into double digits.

True story.

People were inventing new games for his clapping

And giving relationship advise

The clapping was a bit of a shambles.
