We've been watching all the coverage on our President's foreign trip, which is carried live on Fox News. We switched once to MSNBC and they were talking about Bill Cosby. We switched once to NBC and they were talking about Russian ties and President Trump. Enough of those stations; they're still bound and determined to either bash, or ignore our President. We should all support our President on this historic trip and all he's accomplished, so far. The receptions he's received there have been heart warming, unlike Obama's apology tours and cool receptions. It's wonderful to be proud of our President and First Lady.....Class Act!
Well, I'm glad he kept the lid on during his time in Saudi Arabia. Of course, there was that sword dance, that curtsy, and that weirdly glowing orb...not to mention the total absence of women at any significant events, but hey, at least he didn't demand a ham sandwich along with his double scoops.
Now, on to Israel. At least Melania and Ivanka won't have to cover up quite so extensively. Just hope Trump doesn't botch any Biblical references this time, and that his refusal to visit Masada doesn't continue to raise eyebrows.
I hope he realizes he's still going to have to wait a few days for that ham sandwich.
I am really looking forward to Trump's visit to the Vatican. Can't wait to see what Pope Francis's conversations with him include.

It's been well covered on every news channel. That said, I think we are going to see a different Trump with respect to Muslims and diversity when he returns. Foreign travel, even the protected, scripted one that Trump is on, cuts into the provincialism, ignorance and xenophobia that so many Americans, including Trump have as a birthright. Trump may even show flashes of being presidential in the next few weeks.

Fox has been recycling the same footage.
Just tuned in and all three cable outlets are showing the same live coverage.
Fox recycles the same footage and is giving it more airtime with the talking heads gushing in the background.
Thus far Trump has stuck to his scripts even though the scripts contradict some of his campaign rhetoric. That's an accomplishment.
US presidents have, over time, recieved all sorts of receptions throughout the world.
I cannot imagine feeling a sense of pride or any other emotion about presidential visits to other countries.
