Count the many emotions that cross Trump's face in a few seconds.

Let the actors cast to play Trump in future movies study this clip and despair.

ā§Ģā§Šāϟি āĻŽāύ্āϤāĻŦ্āϝ:

Peachy āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

huh? is this another impeachable offense? or is it a felony?

exhelodrvr1 āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

despair

Peachy āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

I think it's cool that Trump is visiting France for the unavailing of the newly and beautifully restored Notre Dame. Bravo. We have a real president again.

(as apposed to the old mob-ruled crap weasel & liar who falls asleep on camera after forking over more American tax dollars.... without our permission.)

Eric the Fruit Bat āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

Well, perfect imitation is all fine, well, and good but pretty much any actor worth his salt will be able to conjure up a frown, wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command.

Dr Weevil āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

A Ukrainian on Twitter couldn't help noticing that Trump not only met with Macron and Zelenskyy in Paris, he wore a blue suit and yellow tie to the photo opportunity (link). Doesn't he normally wear a red tie? (You can see the yellow tie in Ann's video, but I think the black suit is an overcoat, with the blue jacket underneath.)

Those who hope, or fear, that Trump's going to cut off all aid to Ukraine on January 20th and let Putin keep the territory he stole, with the millions of hostages living there, may want to wait and see. The fact that he's met with Zelenskyy more times than any other foreign leader is another clue.

Ralph L āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

Interesting that Macron gave him the head of state treatment. Remember how the media told us the European leaders didn't get along with him.

Ralph L āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

I had no idea the French had adopted the German Christmas Tree. When did that happen?

Leland āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

Got to be a FARA violation in there somewhere, right?

JRoberts āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

The video of Trump and Macron reminds me of the late-in-the-campaign clips from Senators Baldwin, Casey, etc. that almost pleaded "Please don't throw me out of office, I can be friends with Trump!"

Macron, like Trudeau in Canada, may both be cleaning out their desks in the coming weeks. Good riddance!

Rory āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

The lion in winter.

Lilly, a dog āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

Dispair or datpair?

FormerLawClerk āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

Note the "bring in" power handshake, where he pulls Macron's arm practically off.

That's an Alpha male showing a Beta what a man is.

FormerLawClerk āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

Probably about the same time they imported all those terrorists.

FormerLawClerk āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

That was before Joe Biden bombed Germany's natural gas pipelines and put them back in the 15th Century.

mccullough āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

Tenderness, amusement

NorthOfTheOneOhOne āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

1940 or thereabouts?

Yancey Ward āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

You know who else visited Paris to sight-see historic places? Hitler!!!!

Yancey Ward āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

On a serious note- I haven't seen Trump's hair that white before.

NT Dave āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

I noticed it too, think it looks good.

Ann Althouse āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

Thanks, exhelodrvr1

Eva Marie āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

@ Dixcus: That would do it.

Kakistocracy āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

Which names will Trump remember after the flight home?

Well done Macron for inviting Trump and Zelensky for the reopening of Norte Dame. A masterful act of diplomacy in an otherwise puerile political world. If Macron can turn that to an opportunity, that would be a masterpiece.

As an aside, it’s truly remarkable how quickly Paris has been able to restore the Notre Dame.

France does infrastructure projects very well -- rail, nuclear and this reconstruction are all evidence of that.

Kakistocracy āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

In diplomacy as in business, some relationships are unpleasant but necessary.

Dr Weevil āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

What is the evidence that any of these three men finds it "unpleasant" to meet with either of the other two?

Yancey Ward āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

Yeah, only cost almost 1 billion dollars, too. Cheap.

Quaestor āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

Three?

Quaestor āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

What is that repeated off-camera word, "vee"? Short for visage? It would make sense that photographers would ask to see Trump and Macron's faces.

Dr Weevil āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

Sorry, I was thinking of the subsequent meeting between Trump, Macron, and Zelenskyy, linked in my comment below. It's a broader question, but still a good one, and you can ask the narrower version of my question about these two: what is the evidence that either of them found their meeting "unpleasant"?

NorthOfTheOneOhOne āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

Well beats Biden going over. He'd be saying; "Notre Dame? What time do they kickoff?"

hanuman_prodigious_leaper āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

Why not dispair >>>> disparity

hanuman_prodigious_leaper āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

W NC should call them

The Middle Coast āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

That’s what I saw as well. One of them needs the other, the other doesn’t.

AZ Bob āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

President Trump looks ill at-ease and his hair looks white. The events of July 13 have taken a toll.

Megthered āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

I think Trump looks good for what has happened to him in the past year. He does seem more serious, but he has a lot to accomplish in a short time.

Joe Bar āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

Doctor Jill made the trip, instead.

Joe Bar āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

I like that little side-to-side head bump he does at the beginning.

William50 āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

The look of a man who knows he has only 2 years to accomplish his agenda.

Readering āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

It appears French took Xmas tree from German speaking Alsatians long ago.

The Godfather āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

But Trump didn't come in a tank (he didn't HAVE TO).

Readering āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

I don't often speak of Trump this way, but I think it's cool that he made the trip to Paris. He had been POTUS when the tragic fire happened, and it's fitting he's there when the magnificent repairs are solemnized. I think it's a pity Pope Francis judged he would distract by his own presence.

Readering āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

But Musk there, not Melania?

The Godfather āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

What impresses me is that the Frogs seem to have "restored" the ancient church, not "improved" it. I assume there's some modern engineering involved, but it's not obvious.

Jim at āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

But no, DJT really is that much of a clown.

It's going to be a long, long four years for you. May want to pace yourself.

MacMacConnell āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

A yellow tie is the "power tie".

Kakistocracy āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

^^ Amazing story that reminds us that talent lies beyond AI and influencers 😉

Valentine Smith āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

There seems to be a lot of fantasizing about handshakes in these comments. Well, I guess he could be on a par with the CIA poring over all the old Soviet newsreels for hints of the Soviet policy. Geez.

Biff āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

I see Kremlinology is back in vogue. It was interesting to watch the interactions between Trump and the various officials and public figures. It's very clear that he was the center of attention, aside from the cathedral itself, of course. Prince William seemed particularly cordial.

Mr. Majestyk āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

To me, it looked like he was touched to be there, especially the 0:10 mark.

Godfather. I read that the masons and carpenters took great pains to replicate exactly what the medievil craftsmen did including their mistakes.

PigHelmet āĻŦāϞেāĻ›েāύ...

Well done, Fruit Bat! Very funny. Still, we need the sculptor to well those passions read—this is the actor or imitator, no? Who must be extraordinary.
