Donald Trump hasnt set foot in the White House since leaving office more than three years ago, but that didnt stop him from pretending its still his residence this week when he offered a visitor a key to the building.

Trump gave the baffling gift to former Japanese Prime Minister Taro Aso, who visited him at Trump Tower in New York on Tuesday as the former president finished up a day in court in the Stormy Daniels hush money case.

Aso has a history of praising Nazis and Adolf Hitler , yet Trump called it a great honor to meet him. Then, he handed Aso a ceremonial key to the White House.

The Washington Post reported that Trump was fond of giving away ceremonial keys while he was president, telling Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that he could use it to gain entry basically forever.

Even when Im not president anymore, you can walk up to the front gate of the White House and present it, and they will let you in, he told Netanyahu, according to the 2022 book by Jared Kushner , who is Trumps son-in-law and served as White House advisor.
