First Lady Melania Trump turned 48 on Thursday, however, her husband President Donald Trump was too “busy” to get her a gift.

Trump said in an interview admitted that he did not get anything big for his wife’s birthday. When asked what he did for her special day he said to Fox, “Well, I better not get into that ’cause I may get in trouble. Maybe I didn’t get her so much.”

He did get her “a beautiful card and some beautiful flowers.” Trump says that he is too busy to go out and go shopping for her. “You know, I’m very busy to be running out looking for presents, Ok?” he said.

Jimmy Kimmel pointed out, “He said he’s too busy to buy her a present. Keep this in mind, he said this during a 30-minute long rambling call to Fox and Friends.”
