Hey, I know the United States has a lot on its plate right now—the health-care crisis, the constant threat of imminent war, a history-long struggle with racism and inequality, and
>this guy. But there is still more to contemplate, America.
On July 9, President Donald Trump tweeted a slideshow with “highlights” of the G20 Summit in Hamburg, Germany. The video is set to his tremendously bad, ear-destroying anthem, “Make America Great Again.” Nothing says patriotism like vacant suits pressing the flesh, set to clanging music by a shrill chorus. Trump really gets America.
You can watch the full slideshow here, if you dare.

Here are the weirdest, most inexplicable parts of Donald Trump’s G20 Slide Show and Orchestra Spectacular.
1. Trump care bigly, wave and point to people
Every exciting bit of the G20 Summit is covered in this slide show, including personal greetings in the form of hand gestures commonly seen at weddings and town hall meetings. Riveting candid shots of Trump walking, pointing, smiling and standing are here, including Trump joshing around with his best buds, German Chancellor Angela Merkel and French President Emmanuel Macron.
2. Trump’s pensive, sour face is some depressing shit to watch
The pictures in this slide show include some glimmers of Trump’s phony joviality, but there are mostly lonely glances and longing looks. We do get a captivating birds-eye view of Trump’s inner monologue, though: “I wonder what they’re saying about me ….. ME ME ME ME ME ME ME…. What does G20 even mean? ……Finding Dory is a great, great film.”
3. Putin and Tru-ump, sittin’ in a tree
Here’s Trump and his good friend, Russian President Vladimir Putin. Judging by their expressions and body language, neither is on the same channel. Trump clearly seems in awe of Putin, but Putin just looks bored. It must be hard for a communist leader to wait patiently for the spy chip that was inserted into Trump’s neck to become functional.
4. #Trumpfail: He couldn’t bully his way to the center for the big photo
When it was time for the grand photo op for the BFFs at G20, you’d think Trump would have been seen right up front, dead center and personal. But where is he? He’s waaaayyyy over there, second from left. He failed in his main objective—to always be the center of attention. If anything, this picture was something they should have edited out, not included. Sad!
