DJ Daniel, the 13-year-old brain cancer survivor honored by President Trump during his speech to a joint session of Congress, got to meet the commander in chief Wednesday and the two shared another tender moment.
Daniel, an aspiring police officer, received a standing ovation in the House chamber Tuesday night after Trump surprised the Houston teenager by making him an honorary Secret Service agent.
The “newest member of the United States Secret Service” and his family met with Trump, 78, in the Oval Office, where the young boy had a surprise of his own for the president.
“There’s one more thing I got for you – a big hug,” Daniel told the commander in chief before wrapping him up.
“That’s very nice,” Trump said in response.
Daniel, who was donning the same Houston Police Department uniform he wore for Trump’s big speech, had previously gifted the president a cowboy hat.
“What a good-looking family,” Trump said of the Daniel clan who accompanied DJ into the Oval Office, including the teen’s father, Theodis, and two young girls .
“That was a big evening last night,” the president said.
“Yes it was,” Theodis responded.
Theodis hoisted his son into the air Tuesday night as chants of “DJ! DJ!” broke out in the House chamber after Trump announced the honor.
“[DJ] has always dreamed of becoming a police officer,” the president explained during his speech. “But in 2018, DJ was diagnosed with brain cancer.”
“The doctors gave him five months at most to live,” Trump added. “That was more than six years ago. Since that time, DJ and his dad have been on a quest to make his dream come true.”
Trump recounted how Daniel has been made an honorary member of other law enforcement agencies across the country — including the NYPD — and praised his fighting spirit.
Daniel described his new Secret Service gig as the “biggest honor of them all” in an interview with “Fox & Friends” Wednesday morning.
“I was not expecting it,” he recalled. “Nobody even told us [it was going to happen].”
