Boy Who Got Wish to Mow White House Lawn: ‘It Was Really Cool’ to Meet President Trump

Full Title: Exclusive — Boy Who Got Wish to Mow White House Lawn: ‘It Was Really Cool’ to Meet President Trump, ‘Especially After He Retweeted Me’

Frank “FX” Giaccio, of Falls Church, Virginia, the 11-year-old who had his wish to mow the White House lawn granted on Friday, told Breitbart News that it was “really cool” to meet President Donald Trump, “especially after he retweeted me.”

*snip*

He found out that his wish to mow the Rose Garden lawn came true on his eleventh birthday, August 2.

FX said that while he does not have any employees at the moment, he has a few clients. That number is likely to grow over the next few days.

Asked about his career aspirations, FX said, “I want to become a Navy SEAL.”

His father said it was the book Way of the Warrior Kid that prompted FX to set his sights on that courageous path. “He read that book, and that’s why he wants to become a Navy SEAL,” Gregory said.

FX participates in an annual charity ride in Dover, Delaware, called the “Annual Amish Country Bike Tour.” Gregory told Breitbart News, “When he was nine, he did a 25-mile cycle.” FX, at 11, just participated in the 50-mile charity ride last month.

Does this article/post matter to us? Why?

It might make you feel better, but in your case, with that attitude, no one would care how you feel.

Go back to bed, you need more rest.

That’s only his first pass. Probably the design in the completed lawn will spell-out “covfefe”.

The same is true about hair cuts.

The difference between a good one and a bad one is about a week.

“Go back to bed, you need more rest.”…and a good laxative might be in order.

I’m sure liberals will criticize this - some OSHA violation or something. Personally I think very highly of our President involving himself with this kid.

I’m thinking that his whole name is a good Catholic name like Francis Xavier....hence the FX.

Because, for the first time in a decade, a white male heterosexual capitalist did not have to die to get favorable mention from the president of the US.

I recognize the lobby bar of the Trump International Hotel in the background of the Breitbart video. Very cool.

Watch the media accuse Trump of bringing the kid to Washington just so they could fill a hotel room (I bet Trump comped him, though.)

In the clip I saw he was amazingly focused. Good on him! Have no doubt he will accomplish his dreams.

Reminds me my kids sister. At about the age of 6 she became very interested in chemistry and wanted to pursue a career in it. She’s been a professor of chemistry at the Naval Academy for the last 20 some odd years.
