On Thursday last week, a guest of Donald Trump’s passed out in the Oval Office during a press conference. The aftermath became all about the president’s reaction at the time, and days later, Saturday Night Live made its impression of the incident, mocking Trump.

On Thursday last week, a person collapsed in the Oval Office. Dr. Mehmet Oz, Trump’s administrator for the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, held a press conference regarding the president’s announcement of his weight-loss drug cost-reduction plan when the incident occurred, with several executives from the pharmaceutical industry, as well as Donald Trump, sitting at his desk.

But during the press conference, a person collapsed behind the Resolute Desk. Dr Oz was seen helping the person on the floor. However, afterward, social media was filled with reactions regarding what the President of the United States did in the situation.

Images of Donald Trump standing at his desk looking towards the cameras while people helped the man on the floor quickly spread.

“Just replace the guy on the floor with America and we have the perfect painting for 2025,” one person wrote on Reddit.

Another added: “[Trump’s] not scripted for dynamic events. It’ll be better to just to restart the quest so you don’t corrupt your save.”

Meanwhile, a third person was critical, saying, “This photo perfectly encapsulates the Trump admin in 2025. Humans empathetic for someone in trouble, while Trump stands by vaguely annoyed that it isn’t about him.”

The press conference was momentarily delayed, but shortly after, the press were invited back. Donald Trump announced that the person was doing well.

“You saw he went down, and he’s fine. We just sent him out and he’s got doctor’s care, but he’s fine,” he said. “So we had a little bit of an interruption.”

It wasn’t just social media that noticed Trump’s reaction. During the weekend, on Saturday Night Live, the show made a whole segment on Trump, mocking him for his reaction to the person fainting.

In the sketch, actor and comedian James Austin Johnson, portraying Trump, stated that he had a “very normal” reaction to the man fainting, which was “Just stand there and stare like a sociopath.”

“Each week, I like to create a big visual that sort of sums up how things are going,” he continued. “Last week, it was the demolishing of the East Wing. This week, it’s a medical professional almost dying in my Oval Office at the mere thought of charging less for drugs. Maybe next week, a bald eagle will fall dead out of the sky and splat right on the White House lawn. And by lawn, of course, I mean big outdoor concrete floor.”

“A guy collapsing in the Oval Office. Who’d have thought it’d be not me?” he concluded.
