President Trump is preparing for the annual Thanksgiving turkey pardon at the White House Tuesday morning. Bread and Butter arrived in Washington D.C. on Monday and stayed overnight at the Willard. They are provided and were transported by the National Turkey Federation.

"Butter" likes to snack on sweet potato fries and is currently training for a personal best in the turkey trot.
