No one tells the most powerful (and deadliest) country in the world to "get out of the way".

He hates the job and it won't get any easier. The more he pushes his duties off on Jared and Ivanka, the more people will begin to resent it. They were not elected, he was. He was elected to do a job he does not want to do, is not equipped to do, refuses to learn how to do, and resents anyone who brings these facts to light. And not everyone is as enamored of Ivanka as he is. I thnk he's going to resign soon.

Maybe, he will stroke out. Maybe his plane will crash. Where is ISIS when you need them?

He seems to be returning the kiss ass pretty well. I think he was overdone, and so he sent Ivanka without explanation. I don't see him using an eastern toilet, so maybe he had to return to the hotel.
They were already running an hour late, and DT does not run late.
CNN said that reporters said he met w the King instead, at the king's request.
Probably a rumor. It would have been a hard schedule, even if he were younger and in good shape, w the jetlag.

He's already punking out?
Don't recall any previous president "cancelling" scheduled appearances on trips abroad.
(?)
Maybe he's making his get away.
Seems weird to me.
