The Internet was horrified and amazed to learn that a Mar-A-Lago club member posed for a selfie with a military officer he identified as the keeper of the "nuclear football."
Richard DeAgazio, an actor and retired investor, posted the photo on his Facebook account after attending a party Saturday hosted by President Donald Trump at his private resort club in Palm Beach, Florida.
The president also took a national security phone call during dinner to discuss North Korea's ballistic missile test.
The Trump supporter -- who apparently joined the club just before Trump won the election and doubled membership fees to $200,000 -- took down his social media account after the post went viral.
But Twitter users expressed their shock over the incident.
