It’s his last day; I want to take a moment to reflect on images of Trump that stand out in my mind of him & the events around his Presidency from a photo op perspective.
There was that time there was a solar eclipse & the President stared and pointed straight at the sun ☀️
There was the time Trump visited England - he was 12 minutes late to meet the monarch & proceeded to walk in front of her at a photo op
This image is a classic; he looks deeply uncomfortable around seasoned politicians & world leaders & the moment of Melania & Trudeau, despite just being an angle of the photo taken - is a classic
That time Trump provided Kim with lots of great photo ops & air time - achieving nothing & having circles ran round him by the autocrat
Then the pandemic: which provided moments like these when he took some bodyguards for a spin whilst he knew he was diagnosed & sick with covid
Then that time he casually suggested injecting bleach might stop Covid to his health advisors who appeared to try & shrink into their own sphincters on camera
And who can forget the downright eerie photos of Trump standing in office as religious folk laid hands on him& prayed.
