Trump Pardons Turkeys Gobble and Waddle

Trump Pardons Turkeys Gobble and Waddle

Every year before Thanksgiving, the President of the United States pardons a turkey.

This year, two turkeys named Gobble and Waddle will be pardoned by President Donald Trump.

They are staying at a fancy hotel in Washington before the big event.

The ceremony is a fun tradition where the President makes jokes and everyone is thankful.

Gobble and Waddle are very lucky because they get to live instead of being part of the Thanksgiving meal.

After the ceremony, they will live at a university in North Carolina where they will be taken care of.

The public helped choose their names through an online poll.
