President Trump and Melania return from Europe

It's nothing, really. They simply return.




Mr President, do you have a deal? Mr President, do you have a deal? Mr President, do you have a deal? Mr President, do you have a deal? Mr President, do you have a deal? Mr President, do you have a deal? Mr President, do you have a deal? Mr President, do you have a deal? Mr President, do you have a deal? Mr President, do you have a deal? Mr President, do you have a deal? Mr President, do you have a deal? What did he say?

He said, "GFY" 

The comments I read elsewhere are religious. They're thanking God for watching over our president and returning him safely. 

Repeatedly:

Thank you, God for returning our president.

Thank you, God for watching over President Trump and Melania.

It's a relief to see them back safe.

Welcome home. We missed you both.

Thanks be to God. They both made me very proud to be an American.

Most of the British people love their Queen, so Trump making her smile made a huge impact on changing their opinion of our President.

Thank you, God, for continuing to protect our beloved President, Melania, and the entire Trump family. We pray you surround them with your shield of protection.

Whew, that’s a relief. Been biting nails and pacing over the trip all week.

I thank almighty God for returning our president and our first lady safely home.

Sometimes, we need to thank God more than once…

Great picture of the two holding hands and laughing. Makes an old guy feel young.

Thank you, God.

And so on, over and over.

They'e been praying all along and now they're praying their thanks. 

It blows my mind that people are like this. 

My family is like this to an extent. Although I have no idea how they feel about Trump. Their political views are superficial, whatever they know comes from media. 

And I can imagine that I can pull up the videos on YouTube and read comments to them that are careless and negative and harsh.  But I don't want to. The comments I saw are beautiful. 

Such simple videos. So touching.

What is meant by "this"? Kind hearted? Well meaning? Well Wishing? Relieved? Grateful? Genuinely thankful? Pleased? Interested? Connected to what they believe is a power greater than themselves?

For a guy who's supposed to be a egomaniac, he's awfully down to Earth.

God stepped in to save us from The Witch Hillary. And yes I mean that.

He takes time, appears present, and responds with something that comes across as more than polite form or scripted material, as people light up and appear to connect when he addresses them.

Reaching out and responding in that manner takes time, energy, dedication, and commitment. It's possible he's doing it to "win" something that matters to him, like votes or the approval of others. Watching him interact with the crowds however, I wonder if something more than winning is prompting him. It's my sense he values real connection and carries a sense of purpose and duty that runs under the wackiness and punching back present in his tweets.
