Trump poses in golf gear for couple's engagement photos at Mar-a-Lago, Internet calls him 'best POTUS ever'

Trump happened to walk by the area of Palm Beach, Florida, resort on February 16 where groom-to-be, Brian Schottenstein, was posing for photos with his fiancée

Former President Donald Trump posed in his golf gear with a "good-looking" couple at their engagement at Mar-a-Lago earlier this week. Trump happened to walk by the area of the Palm Beach, Florida, resort on February 16 where groom-to-be, Brian Schottenstein, was posing for photos with his fiancee.

A video of what happened next was posted by Schottenstein on Twitter, with the caption, "Fun day with @ToriaAronoff at Mar-a-Lago taking engagement photos. Our friend @POTUS45 came in for a couple too."

In the short clip, Trump could be seen on camera paying some compliments to the couple as they snap pictures. Initially, he is off-camera as it is pointed straight at the couple. Then Schottenstein happens to notice the former POTUS and greets him.

This is followed by a few giggles from his fiancee, who asks Trump if they can get some photos with him. Trump, decked out in his golf gear — white shirt with black pants — obliges and walks over to where the couple was taking pictures. The bride-to-be moves in the middle and Trump stands next to the couple, giving a big thumbs up for a few snaps.

As soon as Schottenstein posted the video, a flurry of responses from Trump supporters flooded in, most of whom were delighted to see the 45th president make a cameo during the couple's special occasion.

"Congratulations, on your engagement and on having @POTUS45 drop in on your photoshoot! How amazing!! All the best for a happy & long life together!" one of them said while another stated, "That is SO cool! I wish I could have been a fly on the wall. I admire his open attitude a lot." 

A user remarked, "If i was him I would of wished I wore my white pants... lol." One more commented, "Congratulations! What a lovely couple & how awesome that you got a picture with @POTUS45." The next quipped, "You lucky lucky couple! Not just for your engagement but a picture with the best person in the world! lol". A user tweeted, "Trump is so unpretentious, down to earth, kind, generous, warm, natural! Best POTUS ever! Congratulations!"

This is not the first time Trump has made a cameo in a couple's wedding photos. He has posed with newlyweds and to-be married couples a number of times in the past, even when he was the POTUS. In fact, shortly after news broke that he had lost the 2020 election to President Joe Biden in November, he was also seen snapping photos with a new bride at his Virginia golf course.

The bride, at the time, was getting married at his Trump National Golf Club in Sterling, Virginia, and a video taken at the time showed Trump snapping photos with her and the bridesmaids. The crowd surrounding the area could be heard yelling, "We love you!" After he posed for the photos, they began to cheer and clap as Trump walked away.
