There seems to be no end to awkward public moments between US President Donald Trump and the first lady Melania Trump. On Monday, while walking towards 'Marine One', Melania seemed to have again swatted away President's hand.

The awkward moment came on Monday before the two boarded the helicopter to depart from the White House to Ohio.

As the two walk together before boarding 'Marine One,' Trump reaches out to hold Melania's hand who was wearing a long yellow jacket over her shoulders, with arms and hands inside the coat. 

 

A video posted by NBC News shows Trump making several attempts to hold his wife's hand and failing. As Trump fails to hold her hand, which were inside the coat and not inside the sleeves, he stops and waves his hand and moves towards Melania's left. 

The two then continue walking towards 'Marine One' with Trump's hand in his coat and Melania holding her handbag. 

As they moved closer to the chopper, Trump placed his hand on her shoulder and then back before she got on board before him.

While the caption with the video said "President Trump and First Lady Melania Trump depart the White House on their way to Ohio," Twitter users were quick to point out the awkwardness visible in their walk. 

They pointed out to the moment Melania dodging his hand, something she has done in the past. 

When the couple at the White House after a short trip to Ohio, Trump was again seen attempting to hold Melania's right hand, which was inside her coat. 

Some suggested that Melania kept her arms and hands inside the coat, not inside the sleeves, to avoid holding Trump’s hands. 

The couple have had many awkward public moments. In May, 2017, during Trump's visit to Israel, Melania had slapped away his hand during a public event. 

 

Trump, walking alongside Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his wife, reached out to grasp the First Lady’s hand, but video circulated on Twitter appeared to show Melania briefly flicking his hand away.
