Serious question - why are all these leaders and heads of state coming here instead of TSF traveling internationally?

[DUMember24]

Is he allowed to go to other countries? Or is there something hanging over him related to convicted felons being barred from other countries? Just seems odd to see this on a weekly basis with heads of state rotating through to this frequency or perhaps it just wasn't publicized.

1. Good question.

2. They may not allow felons to travel to their country. nt

3. He's afraid of his old airplane.

And a dictator often can't leave home.

[CrispyQ]

4. Besides his status as a felon, which might make him ineligible to enter some countries,

in his mind "you come to me" is a power move.

5. They want to see his lard ass face-to-face to judge how crazy he's become.

He wants them to come kiss his ass, and they basically have no choice.

Macron thinks he's been able to break through wall of misinformation previously.

6. Why is his inability to travel to do diplomatic duties being normalized?

This needs more attention IMO.

[ScratchCat]

7. Probably a combination of

His ego, wanting to make them come see him, coupled with fear that he will be killed or arrested.

8. They don't want to have to entertain him,

although Saudi Arabia is getting orb ready.

[milestogo]

9. Because he is a felon who poops in his pants.

They don't want poop on their carpets.

10. Somebody's got to pay $1 million per night to stay at Trump properties.

😒

[sakabatou]

11. A few things

1. He's lazy
2. Felons cannot enter their country.
3. Dump is trying to assert dominance by making leaders come here.

12. Trump Dassn't Travel Much.

Too much danger our there for him. Folks have to come to him, make their kow-tow and hear his pronouncements.

[EndlessWire]

13. Oh, I think it's because

he knows we won't let him back in the country if he leaves. That's the plan. Arrest him on the tarmac, or he can take AF1 and land in some other country. We won't pay to get him back. We have to save the money for the big coming tax break for those who don't need it. We can ransom back the air crew.

If musky can have a private army, so can we. Surround the plane on the tarmac. Do you think the Army or Marines will save his doughy ass? I think not. He fired one too many Generals, and they're pissed.

Call out the Grey Panthers! We're pissed, too!

[Locutusofborg]

14. It's an intentional strategy

Trump wants all the "earls", "barons", and "dukes", the leaders of other countries to come to the Game of Throne's Iron Throne to "bend the knee" to the king, Donald J. Trump. Trump's view is that there are three world leaders: him, Putin and Xi of China.

15. It's also a pain in the arse to host an American president, because the Secret Service insists on huge protection

even more so with a paranoid coward like Trump.

The UK is buttering him up with the "unprecedented!!!" 2nd state visit. That takes time to organize. I hope Starmer got something worthwhile out of it. It's not nice seeing a rapist fawned over like that.
