Someone Mooned President Trump's Motorcade In DC: Report

A Cleveland Park man has achieved local hero status after dropping his pants and giving the president a show Thursday night.

WASHINGTON, DC -- President Trump got a glimpse of a full moon as his motorcade passed through D.C. Thursday night -- except this one wasn't from a cosmic body orbiting the Earth, but from a pantsless body living in Cleveland Park.

As Trump's motorcade traveled up Connecticut Avenue, people flocked to the streets to provide their own varied reactions at around 7:25 p.m. Thursday, and one reaction in particular caught the attention of the White House pool reporter, according to a report.

A man in a lower-floor unit of an apartment building dropped his pants and pointed his posterior toward the motorcade as it passed, and we're not talking about a little bit of crack -- the man's glutes were displayed in full splendor as they gazed down upon the president.

"As we road up Connecticut Avenue, there were several clusters of onlookers," the pool report states. "One group cheered the motorcade. A man with a baby on his shoulders waved. Just shy of Tilden Street, several of the riders in the press van reported seeing a man 'mooning' the motorcade from one of the lower floors of an apartment building. One of our colleagues stated it was a 'full moon.'"

No one has yet come forward to claim responsibility, but he's already a hero based on messages in the Cleveland Park neighborhood email group, the Washingtonian reported.
