Someone has found footage of every single time Trump says he'll do something 'in two weeks' and the results are baffling

The video includes snippets of interviews that span from recent days to as far back as 2017

It appears as if Donald Trump has a favorite phrase, and no, it's not 'fake news'.

Being the President of the United States, you're always going to be inundated with questions. Trump has been grilled on a series of different topics in this presidency alone: from the Ukraine and Russia war to Elon Musk's supposedly amicable departure from the administration.

One particular thing the president is often pushed for an answer about is timelines of when things might happen — and he has a go to response.

The reply? "Within two weeks."

Trump even has his White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt saying it for him.

One pressing topic at the Captiol is whether America will attack Iran or not amid its ongoing conflict with Israel.

Leavitt read out a response on Trump's behalf on Thursday where she relayed his favorite phrase.

"Based on the fact that there's a substantial chance of negotiations that may or may not take place with Iran in the near future, I will make my decision whether or not to go within the next two weeks," she shared.

A snippet of this press conference made it into a now-viral edit of the president saying he was going to do something 'in the next two weeks'.

You might think we're being dramatic when we say it's his favorite phrase, but the president really does say it a lot, as seen in this minute-long edit.

Reacting to the video that's been posted on Twitter, one person said: "So flip flopping? Nothing new from this weak leader."

Another questioned: "Does he know how embarrassing this is?"

"It’s always two weeks because there’s never anything concrete and he never knows anything," suggested somebody else. A different person added: "Gotta give enough time for people to hopefully forget!"

Agreeing with this theory, another Twitter-user wrote: "There's a psychology behind a two-week timeline: short enough for people to believe him and long enough for them to forget what he said. Conmen use it."

The video comes after a new poll revealed how Americans feel about Trump's running of the country.

In one poll by Fox News it was found that 46 percent of people approve of Trump's handling of immigration, while 53 percent disapprove.

In regards to foreign policy, a lowly 43 percent stated they approve of Trump's way on the world stage, but 57 percent disapprove of the president in that area.
