🔴 Moment Trump arrived in Davos, Switzerland no one was there to receive him. No official welcome. No delegation. Just

Trumpy's lone walk may be symbolic of the USA--standing alone with a lunatic in charge



🔴 Moment Trump arrived in Davos, Switzerland no one was there to receive him.

No official welcome.
No delegation.
Just a silent arrival at the world’s most elite forum.

This is an indication of his knees going out. I only learned this myself last year when a family member had a knee operation. Prior to that, he could not walk a straight line and even after the operation, it took some time for him to be able to do so.

The knees play a role in balance. Frankly, I'm surprised he hasn't fallen yet. He probably has and we don't know about it.

There are times when I ‘wobble’, usually when I’ve been walking for a while. I make light of it…Weebles wobble but they don’t fall down.

And btw other posters were spot on Trump’s limp was there @ the start and he almost walked off his red
carpet at the end. He is very ill.

I wonder if he takes sick in Switzerland will the hospitals there treat him?

No one there to welcome him, take a hint Donald. Too bad they didn't set up barricades to block his path or make him walk further.

When they had to return to Washington, there was a whole delegation that had to exit the first plane and then reboard on the replacement. No Secret Service? Did they vanish over the Atlantic?

both for the same reason.

There's Trump, arriving at Davos, and no one can be bothered to come outside to welcome him.

That's funny.

And yet, there's the President of the United States, so despised by the world no other head of State will step outside to welcome him.

And that's sad for our country.
