(7,576 posts)must have been taking a nap.....better his face not in the picture. What a dufus he is....he has no idea what is happening around him.
malaise
(269,004 posts)Was probably constructing his next tweet
murielm99
(30,741 posts)He does that automatically when he is feeling defensive.
malaise
(269,004 posts)I could be wrong but I think it's to hide his gut and pretend he's the only important person in the room.

(5,730 posts)Come into the century.
You would think w both his wife & daughters being models & designers , he wouldn't have to strut around like around like he was in the 50s &60s.
lunatica
(53,410 posts)If he leans back his belly will show so he's figured out how to look like he's thinner than he is. He also rarely buttons up his jacket. His longer ties are to hide his belly too. Or, as I believe, his depends.
Makes sense
magicarpet
(14,150 posts)That he did not stand up and moon the camera ~ or reach over and grab the pussies of the ladies in his immediate proximity ~ with his sick ear to ear psychopathic grin smeared across his face.

(21,635 posts)And FAR more extreme.
From 1984:
A top White House official acknowledged Monday that President Reagan sometimes dozed off at Cabinet meetings but said it had ''more to do with what's going on in the meeting than what time of day it is.''
''These meetings are sometimes boring, and I doze off, too,'' Michael Deaver, the deputy chief of staff, told NBC News.
The comment was made in an interview with NBC's Chris Wallace in connection with a televised profile of Mr. Reagan, who is 73 years old. Mr. Wallace said that ''even when he's working, officials have described a disengaged President'' who ''just accepts staff recommendations'' and sleeps in meetings from 1 P.M. to 3 P.M.

(21,635 posts)Cheeto seems to be several years further around the bend than Reagan was at this stage in his presidency.
To say nothing of the fact that Reagan was a bonafide moderate compared to this medieval neofascist we have now.

Can't believe some will still support him after this second debacle of a foreign trip.

(53,410 posts)In front of him. Probably the meeting agenda. Which tells me he's quite aware of the visuals.
Good! I hope it torques his ass painfully. Photos are being taken, and by now he may have seen them himself.
Brother Buzz
(36,434 posts)But the vain one, as you stated, is totally aware of the visuals.

Thomas Hurt

If he isn't selling his himself or the Office of the POTUS for his own enrichment he has nothing to say.
xxqqqzme
(14,887 posts)If he ever had any face recognition skills they are long gone. So he can't talk to anyone without a handler whispering in his ear. Plus he only wants to talk about his fantasy accomplishments.
No credibility at home and none on the world stage. He deserves everything coming to him.

(4,750 posts)Keeping him even kinda-sorta near the realm of normal must be the job of a number if people. I would love to know how many people are required to get him through his no-heavy-lifting days.
No way he gets himself dressed, fed, and vaguely aware of what he'll do next, not to mention accomplishing the all-important task of securing the critter on his head, without which he wouldn't feel properly groomed, all by himself.
And I don't think Ivanka and Jared are doing those tasks, either.
dixiegrrrrl
(60,010 posts)I found that remarkable. He moved from the bullet proof looking clear glass thing that he was in, wandered slowly onto the stage, then stopped and just stood still, looking kinda vague.
Were they hiding, hoping he made a good target, or just as clueless about their job as he is?
erronis
(15,257 posts)I still feel sorry for his pathetic existence.
Now, if he could just check out. Way out.
calimary
(81,267 posts)Or are you just too good to hang out and schmooze? Maybe they're just not your equals, your worship? Not worth your time (since they probably don't have big mob money to loan you, your sons, or your son-in-law? So they're a waste of time?
Bigger version of that photo shows groups of other dignitaries all busy, behind him, talking and schmoozing. Yet there His Lordship sits, all alone, waiting for whatever's supposed to happen next. And everybody else is busy chatting and fraternizing.
Whatsa matter, Donald? Nobody likes you? Or did somebody finally take your phone away and you're left, adrift, not knowing what to do with yourself?

HockeyMom
(14,337 posts)but I don't remember Reagan sitting by himself at world events staring into space. Yes, he did get confused at times, but world leaders generally liked, and respected him enough to not shun him. Even as a Democrat, I will give Republican Reagan this much.
Very, very bad, sad situation we are now in. Sorry, Donald, your Daughter cannot take your place. Where is your VP or Secretary of State to HELP you out?
