# Sweaty Trump Rambles About Snakes and Thirsts Over Ivanka Lookalike

Donald Trump, 79, set aside talk of the holiday season on Sunday during a White House Christmas reception to ramble about snakes—and his daughter, Ivanka. In a not-so-shocking twist, the president veered off script while addressing the crowd, ricocheting through a laundry list of topics before landing on an unusual fixation: snakes. “\[Peru\] is known to be a rather rough place in terms of physical creatures crawling around,” a visibly sweaty Trump began. “28,000 people die a year from a snake bite, a certain snake. It’s a viper. It’s said to be the most poisonous snake in the world.”
