The National Thanksgiving Turkey and its alternate "wingman," are introduced during an event hosted by The National Turkey Federation at the Williard InterContinental on November 20, 2017, in Washington, D.C. One of the 40-pound birds was presented to President Donald Trump at the White House on Tuesday and ceremonially "pardoned." Both of the 20-week-old birds will now reside at their new home, "Gobbler's Rest," at Virginia Tech.
