Sounds like 45's trip is going to be long and grueling.

Long, busy, and stressful on top of whatever stress he's already feeling. He is also going to have to stay on message which will be hard for him. Can't be good for the ole blood pressure. Wonder if he travels with a physician?

That's the drug that keeps him going. Without constant reassurance from admirers that he is "real", his self image beings to shrivel and die. He wants so badly to be seen as a real leader, but he knows down deep inside that he is only faking it. The only way he can protect himself from that feeling of inadequacy is by distracting himself with praise from others. It's all he has to make him feel real.

Like one of his predecessors did? It could become a Republican tradition.

He doesn't like sleeping away from the White House or one of his resort properties.
He may get cranky.
