[quote]Donald Trump’s first official overseas trip as US president has produced yet another viral moment for the internet to obsess over.

As Trump and his wife, Melania, disembarked from Air Force One at Tel Aviv on Monday to begin their visit to Israel, the first lady appeared to brush away her husband’s attempt to hold her hand. The action, caught in a video clip by Israeli news publisher Haaretz, has been widely shared on social media.[/quote]

I don't like Trump but is this really news?

Might as well start jumping off the burning ship.

Slow news on controversy so we get this.

Nothing more than a trophy wife caught in a big mess

Who gives a god damn shit lmao

EDIT: like seriously this is the type of stuff that lets idiots get away with their """fake news""" shit-stirring by pointing to idiotic and non-important things like this.

Stop treating Trump like a fucking celebrity and reporting on every minor and inconsequential thing like this.

It's Trump. Even something as normal as him going to a diner or him taking two scopes of ice cream warrants an article from the mainstream media these days.

The two scoops thing was literally a paragraph inside a giant article

I get that it's silly, but it's also kinda stupid to say they're focusing on that kinda shit when it's actually you and the public focusing on that shit. They wrote one paragraph about that, mind you the news story for a week solid during this time of Obamas first term was "The President likes Dijon Mustard. What a non american muslim"

Yes, this is non news. Yes this is a stupid story. But stop conflating shit.

Send a report to the guardian and other news agencies if you think it'll help

Isn't display of affection in public frowned upon in that region? Or is that in Saudi Arabia only?

Big whoop

The big deal is that the office of the presidency is looked up to by many Christians who value the "Nuclear Family" or the loving husband and wife image very highly. By Trump and the Bimbo not getting along, he's gonna start losing the support of those people.

If the pussy tape didn't put these people off, nothing will.

Do you actually think this is an important piece of news? Really?

You and I both know that things like updates on the Russian-Trump investigation, on what exactly he's doing in the countries' he's visiting or any policies he tries to put forward are more important than how Melania and him appear in public.

So stop the snark. I'm not qualified to be a journalist. But I sure as hell can tell you: this isn't news.
