President Donald Trump lit up like a kid in a candy store after Speaker of the House Mike Johnson gifted him a gavel to commemorate the signing of his massive “Big Beautiful Bill” into law. Surrounded by a gaggle of senators, congressional leaders, and supporters on the White House lawn, Trump played up the pomp and circumstance of the July 4 moment as he asked the eager crowd, “Ready?” before signing the bill. Afterward, Johnson stepped in with a blue box containing the gavel. “Mr. President, this is the gavel used to enact the big, beautiful bill,” said Johnson. “And I want you to have that for your collection.” Trump took the gavel and asked the audience again, “Are we ready? Are you ready?” He then proceeded to bang the gavel on his signing desk. The moment sparked a mix of praise and criticism online, with one X user commenting, “Sorry, I have to go throw up now.” Yet another X user commented, “You gotta hand it to President Trump. He knows how to put on a show.”
