The “big hug” of the 13-year-old Secret Service Agents for Donald Trump

The Secret Service Agent DJ Daniel and his family visited President Donald Trump on Wednesday evening (local time), where Daniel gave him a “big hug”. In a video that was divided online by the White House, DJ Daniel stands next to Trump's desk.

“What a good -looking family, right?” Trump notices.

The teenager looks at him and says: “There is still one thing I got for them: a big hug.” Then he wraps his arms around the US President. Trump hugs the hug and replies: “Okay, good. That's very nice. Look at the family you have, right?”

Trump then shakes Daniel's father's hand and asks: “How are you?”

“It was a big evening last night, wasn't it?” He adds.

Two other children can be seen in the video.

On Tuesday evening, Trump fulfilled the 13-year-old DJ Daniel's dream of becoming a police officer during his first speech to the congress by describing him as a secret service.

“Tonight, DJ Daniel, will give you the greatest honor of everyone. I ask our new secret service director Sean Curran to officially make you an agent of the United States Secret Service,” said Trump.

Daniel's father lifted him when the house thundered before applause. Curran handed over a badge to the teenager who suffers from brain cancer in the final stage.

Trump explained the child's history and said that Daniel was diagnosed with brain cancer and five months to live. In another video that shared the White House, DJ Daniel remembers the day when he was taken to the hospital and cancer diagnosed.

“They said no, we have to go to his brain tonight. Since then I have had 13 brain surgery. And so often my personality has changed. And that's something that they don't hear from a terminally ill child. They have five months to live. I know that God, if God calls them at home.

DJ Daniel believes that he is alive because of his father. And the duo is proud of each other.

“I want to thank President Trump because if it weren't for him, I wouldn't be here today,” he said.
