Fox News host Ainsley Earhardt on Thursday lauded President Donald Trump's practice of carrying around a pocket full of cash.


While boarding Air Force One, the president was photographed with $20 bills in his back pocket. He was later asked why he still carried cash as president.

“I don’t carry a wallet because I haven’t had to use a credit card in a long time,” Trump later explained. “I do like leaving tips to the hotel. I like to carry a little something. I like to give tips to the hotel. I’m telling you, maybe a president’s not supposed to do it, but I like to leave a tip for the hotel, et cetera, et cetera.”

Earhardt reflected on the president's remarks during the Thursday episode of Fox & Friends.

"You know, our generation, a lot of people don't use cash, you use cards," Earhardt explained. "So I'm glad the president does that."

"My dad always had cash," she added fondly. "Always does have cash."
