Is this picture real? Because I don’t like it.
It implies that President Trump is OK with the occult.
And if President Trump is OK with the occult, then we need to rethink a whole bunch of stuff.
Here’s the story behind the glowing orb:
When President Donald Trump set his hands on a glowing orb during his first foreign trip to Saudi Arabia, social media lit up with science fiction jokes. Social media users mused that the image, in which Trump touches a globe with Saudi King Salman bin Abdulaziz, and Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, resembled a scene where villains enact their master plan.
In reality, Trump had touched the globe as part of an inauguration ceremony for the Global Center for Combatting Extremist Ideology in Ridyah, Saudi Arabia on Sunday. Together, the three leaders placed their hands on the globe to start a film about the center.
The newly-opened center has a large TV wall displaying ongoing extremist activity and aims to come together to stop the spread of violent extremism, the Saudi Gazette reports. It will be used to monitor potential threats of terrorism and, through the help of experts, reveal and confront extremist speech.
Saudi Arabia’s Foreign Minister Adel Al-Jubeir said his country wants the US to know that they are “not an enemy” and are committed in the fights against extremist groups like Daesh, also known as the Islamic State.
“We are the second army after the US military in the international coalition against terrorism,” Al-Jubeir said. “The efforts will be an effective partnership between the Islamic world and the West in general to combat terrorism.”
Trump referenced the new center in his speech to 50 Middle East leaders Sunday afternoon. “This groundbreaking new center represents a clear declaration that Muslim-majority countries must take the lead in combatting radicalization, and I want to express our gratitude to King Salman for this strong demonstration of leadership,” Trump said. “We must be united in pursuing the one goal that transcends every other consideration. That goal is to meet history’s great test — to conquer extremism and vanquish the forces of terrorism.”
But the seriousness of the center didn’t stop people on the internet from joking at the sight of Trump touching the glowing orb. [end of story]
As an aside, the Church of Satan tweeted “For clarification, this is not a Satanic ritual.”
It’s real. It is not occult.
It was in Saudi Arabia....I don't think the Saudis are into the occult.
Yes it was real then. here were many memes done about that then too. But don’t be so sensitive....Remember he was in Saudi and when in Rome.....he did a vast number of deals while there.
I think it is a painting of a picture.
“ It implies that President Trump is OK with the occult.”
You may have inferred what was not implied. I don’t get that thought at all. To each his own
