President Donald Trump borrowed a serpent staff from a child at the White House Halloween event on Sunday to wave in the direction of the media as he and first lady Melania Trump distributed chocolate bars and twizzlers to the children of military families before once again attacking the press on Twitter
'Do you know what I'm doing,' he asked the two little girls, who were dressed in Egyptian style costumes as the first lady chuckled at his antics
He waved the staff up and down and all around, as if he were casting a spell. more videos 1 2 3 Watch video Prince Harry and Meghan Markle officially close Invictus Games Watch video Trump gets in the Halloween spirit as he wields serpent staff Watch video Meghan wraps up turtle neck as she and Prince Harry visit a café Watch video Harry and Meghan celebrate 125 anniversary of women's suffrage Watch video Drunk white woman harasses two black women in a parking lot Watch video Police dispatch audio reveals horror of synagogue massacre Watch video Adorable moment Megan comforts shy five-year-old Kiwi boy Watch video Meghan Markle speaks about women's suffrage in New Zealand Watch video Hundreds of people gather in Wellington to meet Harry and Meghan Watch video Harry and Meghan evacuate in New Zealand due to a fire Watch video Pittsburgh Public Safety director says shooting is 'worst' he's seen Watch video Bolsonaro speech after winning Brazil presidential elections His Halloween antics come a day after the president stirred up controversy by joking about his 'bad hair day' and tweeting about the World Series, just hours after a gunman slaughtered 11 people at a synagogue
He first told a young farmers convention in Indianapolis on Saturday morning that he almost cancelled the events because the weather wreaked havoc with his hair, and not the massacre in Pittsburgh
Later in the evening he then took to social media while watching Game 4 of the series between the Dodgers and the Red Sox, and questioned the pitching changes
But none of that was on display at the White House on a sunny and cool Sunday evening as the first couple welcomed children of military families and local schools
.'The Fake News is doing everything in their power to blame Republicans, Conservatives and me for the division and hatred that has been going on for so long in our Country
Actually, it is their Fake & Dishonest reporting which is causing problems far greater than they understand!,' he wrote on Sunday evening

Harry Potter theme music played, a fog machine pumped spooky smoke, pumpkins abound on hay bales, and the columns of the White House were decorated as corn stalks for the event
There was nary a political costume in sight. Super heroes dominated - Wonder woman was popular for the girls - along with princesses, unicorns, astronauts, and the Stay Puffed Marshmallow man
The first lady, dressed in a yellow plaid coat and her signature stilettos, seemed to particularly like the animal themed costumes
She patted a little guy dressed as a yellow duck on the head and tugged the ear of a little girl dressed as a white rabbit
The first couple entered the South Lawn of the White House on an orange carpet to the music from Thriller and stayed outside for a little more than hour, handing out treats for kids to put in orange plastics bags stamped 'Made in the USA' all along the top
The president didn't give any public remarks at the event - which took place a day after the mass shooting at a synagogue in Pittsburgh - and only spoke to the children

The first couple, who did not dress up in costume, passed out the treats from wicker baskets as the kids walked by them
The Trumps posed for photos with all the kiddos with the president being particularly diligent about calling kids back if they ran off before their parents got a snap
Some kids even got extra candy from the president after they posed. And while Melania Trump, who was wearing a $3,950 Bottega Veneta checked brushed-wool coat, would hand the candy to the kids, the president usually let them take it out of his basket or would drop it straight into their bag
In addition to the sweet treats, the South Lawn was packed with fun activities
NASA had a moon carpet set up on the South Lawn, and robotics displays was on hand from the First Lego Robotics League from the Department of Education
The Department of Transportation handed out paper airplanes, the Department of Agriculture brought in a tractor for the kiddos to explore, and the Department of Health and Human Services had emergency vehicles on display
Children were also able to see the Presidential Limo known as 'The Beast.'There was also a hay bale maze to explore
