The chaotic moment was captured by several media outlets present. Shortly after, White House officials asked the media to temporarily leave the room to handle the situation. President Trump also left his desk, making room for the White House medical team to approach and assist the guest.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt later confirmed the news and said: "The White House medical team responded very quickly and the guest is fine."

When the press conference resumed, President Trump shared: "You saw a guest faint, but he's fine. We took him outside to rest so he could get medical attention. We just had a little interruption."

This is not an uncommon incident at White House events. Although the specific cause has not been announced, in the past, many similar fainting cases have been attributed to stress or pressure when attending important events.
