President Trump on Nov. 21 pardoned a Thanksgiving turkey named Drumstick. “It’s a big bird,” Trump said before granting the pardon. “However, I have been informed by the White House counsel’s office that Tator and Tot’s pardons cannot under any circumstances be revoked. That’s a big bird,” Trump said as he approached the turkey, perched on a cloth-covered table. The presentation of a Thanksgiving turkey has been a presidential tradition for 70 years.
