https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2017/jun/21/marco-rubio-ivanka-trump-hug-awkwardvanka Trumps ramrod posture and the ungainly movements of a Republican senator were all it took to distract the public from a government meeting on Wednesday about paid family leave.
The Florida senator Marco Rubio appeared to fail in an attempt to hug the presidents daughter before the meeting, creating an awkward image that adds to Rubios enduring collection of physical gaffes. He has also accidentally hit a child with a football and clumsily drunk water in a live speech broadcast to the nation.
Those moments required significant clean-up from Rubios press team, but he had an ally on Wednesday as he and Trump laughed off the awkward incident in nine tweets following the incident.
In the tweets, they exchanged banter about the hug being investigated by the Senate intelligence committee, which is expected to meet with Trumps husband, Jared Kushner, this month as Congress investigates her fathers administrations ties to Russia.
