US President Donald Trump was allegedly caught by C-SPAN swearing before delivering a speech about combatting the coronavirus in the White House.
"Oh f...", Trump said with a sigh. "Uh oh, I've got a pen mark. Anybody has any white stuff?"
The stream then continues for several seconds before being cut.
