This is too funny. For President Trump at Notre Dame, it’s an ordinary walk to his seat, except something happened.
It starts out with Poland’s President Andrzej Duda standing up to greet President Donald Trump. They are friends, and Duda is one of the EU heads of state that is seriously thrilled to see President Trump return (Hungary’s Orban is another). However, after Duda stands things get funny because all the other dignitaries then feel obligated to stand and greet President Trump.
President Trump ended up turning his simple walk to his seat, into a reception line of foreign dignitaries who stood at attention to greet him. I cannot stop laughing because it’s just so epic. WATCH:

You just know she voted for him 😂🤣😂 !!

Leader of the ( ahem ) Free World.
How owns the room and it’s Notre Dame. Whew.
Foreign dignitaries… and royalty!!
I spied with my little eye King Philippe and Queen Mathilde of Belgium, as well as the Prince of Wales (with whom President Trump met at the British Embassy after).
Just incredible!
This entrance is an example I’m talking about Betsy.. the man knows exactly what he is doing.. some on other threads are upset with his Cabinet picks…I say let him be sworn in and watch..?if you don’t like what you see then you can gripe…🤷🏻♂️
🇺🇸💪😀👍
I can gripe now too.
that’s why there is a p-nut gallery
He’s been there before, Jim. Remember his first visit during his first term?
Remember how the various NATO (wasn’t it?) heads were snickering at him, casting glances at one another with barely hidden eyerolls? I do.
But not this time.
He’s earned his place as a leader…a man, an Alpha male amongst pygmies. He’s always talked about respect and how important it is. After four years of a demented, debauched charlatan, the point has been made.
Respect is what we witnessed today.
No snickering, no eyerolls…
And it was glorious!!
They all have been waiting for him to take charge again. They may have questioned him during his first term, but they ALL realize HE is the man that will change the free world, again.
And one who can, God willing, pull the western world back from the brink of nuclear annihilation where “Biden” has pushed them…and where their countries are closest to it.
I’m not a lip reader, but I could swear one of the dignitaries leaned towards another and said, “Dad’s back in the room…”
LOL! Daddy’s Home!!! YAY!
Oh how they hated him. Oh how they missed him though once he was gone.
They welcome him now but I doubt it will be long before they hate him once again.
They will hate him for missing him so much, knowing they need him far more than he needs them. That resentment will burn.
So well stated, Gulag. That’s just human nature, isn’t it.
Narcissists and egotists fear being exposed by someone who has what they crave yet will never have themselves because they believe they can gain respect by force. Which is why it was fascinating for me to watch President Trump’s interaction with each one who greeted him individually as he walked the “receiving line”.
He has a great gift of being able to connect. Call it what you like…charisma perhaps…but it is genuine because, simply put, he likes people no matter what station in life they may occupy. And that is a powerful attribute, like empathy, which truly great leaders have.
So he will give them what they yearn for…respect in all his dealings and interactions with them. And in so doing, I hope that what you predict, accurate for people such as they are generally speaking, doesn’t come to pass. Because I believe President Trump is himself a force of nature such as we’ve not seen in our lifetimes.
Personal relationships are the foundations of his success. I think that is what we witnessed today as well. He’s building. That is what he does best. And from where I am sitting I think he’s off to a superb start.
Well stated, Betsy. I do think (if not the leaders of the countries) the people of Europe have a sense of doom, and are glad our President Trump is back. Let us hope manliness finally makes a comeback. I’m hopeful on that track for our country, and I am hoping it rubs off on Europe.
They do have that sense, Deborah, with cause. And here comes President Trump, bigger than life and the only leader who understands someone has to start to turn things around. His presence has to signal a palpable ground shift is on its way. I pray so.
Well stated. Then, years down the road, they will have to admit, even if it’s only to themselves, that President Trump was right all along. They’ll ponder: “How did he know all that he knew…” They will pretend they don’t know or pathetically really won’t know.
Respect and amazement!
100% Agree !!!
President Trump knows what we don’t … and … either his picks succeed, or, they will have succeeded in proving they are not who they pretend to be … and will be replaced.
WE’RE BACK!!!
For anyone who might be interested, EE, of which I know you are one 😊

William looks almost as tall as Baron Trump.
He’s not, Liz. Nowhere near 😉
Why yes, Ms. Jones, in fact, I am, thank you! 😊(I thought the occasion called for a bit of formality). The relieved, full on smile on William’s face…priceless…
Figured 😉💕
We’ve Never Been So Back
Betsy, I was noting the throngs even outside the receiving line stretching to get a glimpse of the great man. I just posted that too – and I said “incredible” too! but in French 😉
The greatest, reed. Leave it to your bilingual self 😊👍🏻
As our host has pointed out – an epic return to greatness! Bets
For world leaders, their collective relief is palpable.
Of that, reed, I truly believe there can be no doubt.
“In-cre-dee-bluh!”
Yup. The French may as well rename it Le Trump Tower and be done with it.
One word……
GRAVITAS.
Yeah, but I used gravitas for Lavrov already this week.
I need to lighten up.
🤣….Bahhhh! If the shoe fits…… I hereby pardon you in perpetuity for recycling ANY pertinent words …
Entering bigly
Funny, He greats them like old friends. Shoulder pats and warm greetings. Presidential!
And how about the smiles he gets from Dr Jill and Ashley? Should be all kinds of splodey heads on MSNBC and the Sunday shows tomorrow.
They are angling for pardons for the Biden family
If only he was wearing a ring….😉
The Don…..
This should be posted and shared as a clear message to Democrats and GOPes-in-name only – Look at the support global leaders give in accord to POTUS 2024! MAGA!
Shame on you all.
That is too funny! Love it. Like it was perfectly planned. Our President rolled with it cause he’s the greatest.
It was perfectly planned.
Right on down to Trump being them last, rather than the first, to his seat.
He knows who his friends are in this gathering.
I wish it were a wider view so we could see everybody standing up after the fact
.
Awesome entrance President Trump. Even the current corrupt, fraudulent administration, knows the real President was in France today.
Zelensky was showing him the love.
Well he has literally billions of our dollars
Somewhere
London?
I’m not sure it didn’t get divvied up before it ever left the U.S.
Isn’t it about time he spent some of our money on a SUIT…
Fidel Castro meme
The Zeester would have kissed PDT’s feet if he could have without making a spectacle of his little self
In his little toad green outfit. He couldn’t wear a suit to Notre Dame.
There are no words to describe how happy and proud this makes me!
We finally have a real President back!
May God continue to bless President Trump and keep him safe! ❤️
I have to admit that I was seriously concerned about DJT’s safety and security prior to his visit to Paris. January 20th can’t come soon enough.
I thought maybe it’s why FLOTUS isn’t with him… it’s kind of an historic event to miss for her. I kinda doubt they’ll be traveling together much, if at all, going forward.
Yet another sacrifice Melania and PDJT will make for all of us…..
I’m reminded of the many years John and Abigail Adams spent away from each other during the early years of this Republic. They truly loved and respected each other, missing each other very much when John’s duties took him away from Braintree.
Donald and Melania Trump know well what the Adamses experienced and sacrificed. For the Republic.
Let me add what an other President sacrificed, too, for the Economic/ National Independence of the Republic.
His portrait was displayed on the wall, behind and to the left of President Trump, in the Oval Office.
”Donald Trump used Jackson’s legacy to present himself as the president of the common man, praising Jackson for saving the country from a rising aristocracy and protecting American workers with a tariff. ”
”Jackson and Rachel were accused of adultery for living together before her divorce was finalized and Rachel heard about the accusation. She had been under stress throughout the election, and just as Jackson was preparing to head to Washington for his inauguration, she fell ill. She did not live to see her husband become president, dying of a stroke or heart attack a few days later. Jackson believed that the abuse from Adams’ supporters had hastened her death, stating at her funeral: “May God Almighty forgive her murderers, as I know she forgave them. I never can.”
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Jackson
I hope the traitors-to-the-party RINOs in the Senate were watching.
They’re too arrogant and jealous to care.
Bet they are, trying to brush away heat under their collars, rising heart palpitations with snides.
Leadership. You either have it or you don’t. It can be refined, but it cannot be manufactured through the alchemy of desire. This man was born to lead.
Well put Aqua ! I may plagiarise that paragraph. Thanks
Our Heavenly Father chose PDJT to lead at this time in history, as part of His Eternal Plan.
Rub it in!
Those lackies in the current [stolen] administration deserve it.
Jill has had a nose job.
Yep, she looks a little “refreshed” now.
PDJT’s hair looks white in these images. I wish he would do a buzz cut. Something more military and boss. I’ve seen photoshopped pics of him bald and he still looks great.
Yes. He likes that signature ‘do’ of his, though.
Hie SCOTTISH HERITAGE Would Be PROUD with This and His Family Colors Kilt ! ( NOT Sure about Melania tho )

No way!
President Trump, aka The Boss, aka “rope-a-doper-supreme.”
aka…who? 🙂 🙂 🙂
Minor correction: Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán is a head of government, rather than a head of state.
They know the real big guy is back and in charge.
Nice one.
Never saw her smile at Joe like that.
Ha ha-she always looks panicked around him
It is hard taking care of a person w/dementia. Never know what they are going to do. She probably feels like she is on a vacay.
Yep and those leaders that stood for PDJT were all beaming from ear to ear, too. So fine!
She knows an Alpha male when she sees one.
Those are probably what was really said.
those autism memes are just TOO funny
some great minds in the world making entertainment for us
My favorite X account to follow. Guaranteed to make one laugh no matter what bout of depression one may be going through.
just signed up, thx
Catturd is my favorite, but I’m loving the Autism posts so now I’ve got two favs. That and seeing President Trump’s happy face makes this a great day!
First I’ve seen of ’em, yeah those are good.
me too – love em!
Cool – you got a knack for these meme posts. I love em!
Hey Elon did I tell you the story about the rocket being caught by the gantry?
President Trump never ceases to amaze me with his superlative communication!
Wow!! What a handshake.
It appeared that he made his poodle host heel!
🤣🤣
Notice all the cell phone cameras trying to forever capture a moment in history.
Only one day to find their phones take a bust and all is lost.
Shivers…designed with quill pens and built by HAND.
They were standing to kiss the ring.
Lololololol!!
Did the President’s invitation say, “and guest”?
Trump is mentoring Elon in a good fatherly way – in which Elon was denied by his own father.
Interesting insight retired magistrate!
I thought Musk has secretly been using the Antikythera mechanism 🙂
Trump brings JOY to the world. They all could not help but break out into deep grins – no they were not laughing at Trump. They were laughing at themselves. The Boss has arrived.
Trump brings JOY to the world.
what a nice thought this is.
They all rose to greet him like a line of petulant students who knew the new school master was not going to take any guff.
Love it!
Trump is not a worm like the others. He sincerely likes people.
It cuts off when he gets to Jill. I would like to see that interaction.
All the previous naysayers were in full chagrin. The transfer of US power has already taken place.
WE ARE SO BACK!
It feels like many years, since Reagan, since we’ve had a CiC and world leader POTUS, but that video shows it. PT’s first term was tainted by the coup d’etat. It wasn’t quite all there yet. But now we’re back.
We’re reaching levels of backness we’ve never seen before
Baby got … no, sorry, wrong venue
Respect. Nice to see it again.
In 2016, Trump was the one full of jumbled word salads. However when I turned the sound off, I saw his real message. His body language said I am gonna kick butt. And he did.
He brought swagger back to the US, and this was the full message today. The world is safer today, because Trump does kick butt. Bravo Mr President – the real one.
Here’s more Boss Body Language.
I read PDJT’S lips… He said; ” I’m BACK you little dweeb and let go of my hand, I have a picture of your house”….
Il n’y a pas un bataille ici. President Trump tellement emasculier Emanuelle au son coin!
Was that Prince William?
Why didn’t Melania go with him I wonder
My guesses? She knew what the trip was really about, and it was risky so she wasn’t going to leave Barron alone in case something happened.
Does that mean she’s never going to travel with him?
A lot of us had major concerns about the safety of this particular trip. Melania may’ve had such concerns as well.
Maybe Melania and/or Barron would have been a, albeit fabulous, distraction for what hubby, dad, GOAT wanted to signal and accomplish on this particular event? Maybe if Z hadn’t been there it would have made the difference?
Anyhoo, here’s the Autists’ take on the Prince…
I’d say there was parity between them, explained by the fact POTUS was meeting with the man who would be king. No power struggle, and still PW deferred ever so minimally, as would a Prince, befitting the honor due a statesman of POTUS stature.
Of which, there is only one.
Looks to me like William is about to do a curtsey. I definitely don’t like his new face hair.
Kate didn’t go with William. So not all spouses were there.
I think she is busy getting ready for the inauguration and the move and this was before the inauguration, so not a formal trip. She takes the job seriously, but not politics.
Daily Mail keeps saying she will be low key, but I don’t see her saying that. Fyi — that’s the only legacy media I see because I like the photos.
Daily Mail a!so keeps talking about things she sells, like Christmas ornaments. They imply she is earning money for herself. But the money is for her charity work with foster kids. The media is scum. One use of the money is for sponsoring some of the kids in college.
“You just know she voted for him”!!!
As did her Husband!!! (And Prolly the Whole Fam Damily)
Yes, President Trump can reach across the aisle, just like all the politicians talk about constantly in my entire 75 years of being alive ….
Do not underestimate President Donald John Trump.
God made him for this moment.
So, rather than bitch and moan about his words or his choices for this and that; look at the bigger picture, as he does.
Remember, his philosophy is and I paraphrase “If your gonna think, why not think BIG?”
Well, Treepers, we are fortunate enough to be living through a time when we have a World Leader, right here in America, who is thinking BIG.
So quitcherbitchin’!!!!
Prolly = Probably
(for those who don’t speak ghetto) 🙄
lighten up Francis
No.
I, for one, only worship at the feet of the Lord God Almighty. Donald Trump is a man, a sinner, and a flawed human being.
We can be grateful for him without worshipping him or pretending he is anything other than what he is. We are not democrats, thank you very much.
*ahem* lighten up Francis
Must meet/marry the girl holding the door open as the VIPs arrived ….
The look on her face as all the famous paraded by … I think I’m in love. Most expressive honor guard I’ve ever seen. Time for a trip to Paris … like tomorrow.
⚠️ 🛑 ⚠️
💩💩💩💩Crap link
–
rhark – based on your attraction to the honor guard, I suggest a viewing of The French Dispatch, for Lea Seydoux’s prison-guard character
Yeah. She’s cold shower worthy.
Everyone loves Trump and it shows.
OMG! We are so back! President Trump rules! He is my man. ( O where is ol Joe- sleeping off his useless Africa trip)
Our lion.
The lion sleeps tonight original in Zulu.
Cool stuff Monti. Chris Walken great clip too.
I am also thinking of Samson and the Philistines.
President Trump just tied burning rushes to the tails of foxes and turned them loose in their wheatfields.
Jesus is the Lion of Judah.
Save the glorification for him and him alone.
Any power Trump has comes from him.
please pull the corn cob out Francis
These are both fantastic.
I once heard two young college radio broadcasters call it the Weemawep song!
(The didn’t know the name of ‘The Lion Sleeps Tonite’.)
Funny, I’ve always referred to it as the “A-Weemawac”! song 🙂
And poor Biden who stole the 2020 election is mocked mercilessly. What a contrast between a legitimately chosen USA President and a usurper in chief. Hmmm.
I thought Jills lovely Smile was Epic!
As it should be.
But But But Joe Biden said that World Leaders were begging him to keep Trump out of the White House. Were they blowing smoke ? Or is FJB a lying bag of scum?
There are no wrong answers.
Funny, but she has a bigger crush on the midget than Macron does.
Always a bridesmaid, Never a 👰♂ bride…
you’re killing me
we’re dyin’ in heah
My favorite .
I noticed how, when Trump sat and was waiting for the ceremony to begin, all eyes were on him. He commands respect simply by his presence. As Tucker Carlson said, “Daddy’s home, and he is pissed.” Everyone is cleaning up their room and acting like “the party while the parents were gone” didn’t happen, but Dad knows exactly what happened and will address it accordingly.
🤣😂🤣😂
Macron had to pretend he wasn’t getting his hand squeezed hard.
See him gritting his teeth!
Make him stop please somebody make him STOP
Oh my poor stomach
Most Hilarious , T4C 😄
Thanks for Sharing 😊
As they say .. Laughter is the Best Medicine 🤠
It looks like Jill’s got a crush.
She looks like a JV cheerleader when the Varsity quarterback notices her.
The body language says if he’d just move his chair a little closer she could lay her head on his shoulder
Jill doing a little lusting, i do believe!
when a woman is at a cocktail party with her enfeebled mate and recognizes that there’s a true bull in the room
With Trump, America is again a player on the World Stage!
Most Powerful Man
Jill Biden looks absolutely enthralled with Trump in that picture. Maybe she’d forgotten what it was like to be in the presence of a real man.
Yeah, cleaning out Joe’s full Chinese designed Depends could get to be tiresome, and trying to find him every night walking naked in the White House must get old as well.
ewwww
c’mon, man
You wanna bet she is paying for hired help to take care of that?
What goes unsaid but is certainly known by everyone there is what forces he fought against (and prevailed!) in order to be there today.
A friend I only hear rarely from said that since President Trump won the election, everyone in her town seems so much more cheerful and upbeat. I’ve noticed that here, too. Just a general positive attitude, smiles.
And that’s what I see there at Notre Dame. Smiles. Gracious ones.
The man with Grit
