If there’s one thing any two sane persons can agree on this week, it’s that the news cycle absolutely sucks.

Between a porn star discussing the intimate details of the president’s genitalia to the left accusing a man of a 35-year-old attempted rape with exactly zero proof, you’re probably wondering why you even bother opening Facebook these days.

So here’s a sweet video to break up your toxic newsfeed and remind you that not everything is totally awful. In a touching moment, a little boy asked President Trump for a hug while they handed out meals to North Carolina families affected by Hurricane Florence Wednesday. Here's how it went down:

“Can I have a hug?”

The pair then posed for a quick photo for the little boy's mom, who admitted the scene made her tear up a little.

Of course, not everyone on Twitter was thrilled about the clip, and took even this opportunity to slam the president for...well, whatever they're ticked about today. Because in 2018, not even a good deed goes unpunished.
