Donald Trump acts like the President of the United States.

It was the 2009-2017 dogpile in the Oval Office who bowed to the leaders of other countries, especially islamic ones.

A Head of State should never bow to another Head of State. They are co-equal. Obama was wrong, and an idiot.

Obama got a cool reception on his 2016 trip.

President Trump and Melania got a Royal Reception.

So proud of our President and Melania and his LOYAL staff.

Wonder what the medal was??

Sources close to the White House say Trump may have broken International Law by not bowing to the King of Saudia Arabia. In a related story other unnamed sources close to the intelligent community say Trump may have sexually harassed Comey during their May 10th dinner.

Any westerner that wears a headscarf or bows is paying homage to Islam, and establishing themselves as either a Muslim or a dhimmi (half-slave).

The Saudis know Trump is no dhimmi, but it won’t stop them from being the primary financial force behind the Islamization of America. We must not be fooled by their (Saudi) gestures. Their primary focus is on replacing the Constitution with the sharia, and anyone who thinks otherwise is themselves a dhimmi and a fool.

“The King bowed to our President.”

Thus restoring the natural order of things to the Universe.

The Saudis are getting $110 billion in U.S. weapons. They will cut a lot of slack to get their hands on the planes, ships, precision-guided bombs and the anti-ballistic radar system that will help to keep the House of Saud in power for decades.

Well at least not till they give him a medal.

LOL! Trump's taller than the King so he had to lean forward. would have been funny if they'd rolled in a little stairway for the King to climb up on instead.
