People Express Outrage Over Trump’s Display in Front of European Leaders
Donald Trump, known for being a polarizing figure, has once again stirred up discussions with his recent behavior, which many found ‘nauseatingly embarrassing.’
Recently, the 79-year-old Republican faced criticism due to an incident involving US troops and Russian President Vladimir Putin during a summit on August 15. Soon after, Trump’s actions in front of European leaders became the center of another outcry.
During a White House visit by French President Emmanuel Macron and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on August 18, Trump proudly displayed his collection of hats. These hats, adorned with his well-known slogans like ‘GULF OF AMERICA’, ‘TRUMP WAS RIGHT ABOUT EVERYTHING’, ‘MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN’, and the controversial ‘TRUMP 2028’, caught significant attention.
The display was shared online by a White House official, quickly garnering criticism for what many deemed ‘childish’ conduct.
Comments flooded social media. One user remarked, “What an embarrassing joke.” Another person criticized it as a “total embarrassment,” and several others echoed similar sentiments, questioning the seriousness of the act.
Comparisons were drawn to childlike behavior, with one comment likening it to “a kid showing his toys to his friends,” while another noted, “Child showing his room to visitors.”
One commentator expressed, “These people must just laugh and laugh when they walk away from Trump. Can’t wait till this national shame is over.”
Highlighting his knack for merchandise, another pointed out, “Politics aside, that man moves merch.”
In addition to hats, Trump has ventured into selling various items, including homeware, skincare, watches, clothing, and more. Yet, the ‘Trump 2028’ hats stand out due to their contentious nature.
The hat, priced at $50 on the Trump Store, is accompanied by a ‘Trump 2028 Shirt’ for $36. The product description hails the hat as the latest trend, with a proud ‘Made in America’ label and an embroidered design featuring the American flag.
This particular piece of merchandise sparked debate on social media, as it suggests Trump’s ambition to run for a third term, which would be unconstitutional.
The prospect of Trump hypothetically serving as the 48th President in 2028, at 82 years old, clashes with the legal limitations set by the Constitution.
The 22nd Amendment clearly states: “No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once.”
