'Peloton room is sacred!' Trump roundly mocked for latest courtroom complaint

Donald Trump's attorney expressed himself appalled Tuesday that federal agents would dare enter the room where the former president's youngest son Barron keeps his Peloton — spectators were less sympathetic.

MSNBC anchor Katie Phang got the mockery ball rolling when she took to X to share what she described as "an are-you-kidding-me moment" in Trump's Florida federal court hearing on his classified documents case.

The moment saw Trump attorney Emily Bove complaining to Judge Aileen Cannon about the FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago, where special counsel Jack Smith contends the former president criminally stored national secrets in his ballroom, bathroom and shower, among other places.

"Emil Bove, lawyer for Trump, indignantly exclaims to Judge Cannon that while executing the search warrant on Mar-a-Lago, FBI agents searched the room where Barron Trump’s Peloton is located," Phang wrote.

Pelotons, of course, are the pricy stationary bikes that allow avid cyclists to participate in spin classes at home. The bikes themselves retail at up to $2,495 (the price of a Peloton+) and require an annual $500 payment for live-streamed and on-demand classes, according to a recent Wirecutter review.

Phang's report on Barron Trump's stationary bike rights was met with shock and much laughter.

"He has a whole room for his Peloton?" asked Rose Benson. "Or the Peloton was located inside it? Either one is ridiculous to offer as a legal argument but both seem possible."

Other readers referenced newly revealed photos that show Trump stored official documents alongside MAGA momentoes and crates of Diet Coke.

" Everyone’s Peloton room is sacred!" declared Nat Finn. "Did they check the PS5 room and the Mountain Dew room, too?"

"That bike deserved its privacy," argued X user A to the Z.

"I'd be more surprised to hear Trump had a library...or in his case, a liberry," noted Bernard Silverman.

"He’s setting it up for the House to pass a Peloton exception for search warrants," quipped Ronnie Batkin Hudson. "I’m sure they can get it passed quickly . . . No searches in rooms that contain Pelotons."
