It's real and a very sad display of how out POTUS is recognized on the world stage.
 
It serves as a political statement, with the text stating, "I am sitting on the back of a man. He is sinking [under] my burden".
 
The maga would pretend that he leads from a position of power and respect, but when you peel away the vileness, this is what is left.
 
And the perspective of the world as they shift away from us.

Who cares about the artist, but the fact this is the depiction of the leader of the US at the I ternational conference. Disrespect to the office you say? Nah, the person in the office who has destroyed the respect of the office.
 
It's sad to see the level of respect degraded, but you get the respect you give.

It's the response for the way one acts.
 
Want respect? Act like it
 
It's earned, not deserved.

I have to say, one should not choose someone because they like that they are disrespectful to those they disagree with, then be upset when they themselves are disrespected. We have created this.

redneckroy : Well, apparently, I owe you an apology. None of my comments were aimed at you specifically, just the human condition of our world. I've known you for a hot minute and I think I'm somewhat aware of the thickness of your skin.

I shouldn't have to explain this. If you've spent any time here, you're aware of my dry/tongue-in-cheek sense of humor. And no, I didn't mention "being tired as context for tone."
 
Who would have ever guessed an AI Bot could **** me off so much? 😂
 
Back to my hostile, abusive cloud! 🫢

That is the result of half of our voters being unpatriotic. The rest of the world sees that and feels empowered to mock us.
 
Our dirty laundry should not be exposed for the world to see… we need to deal with our differences respectfully and internally. But unpatriotic folks, from people like Rosie O'Donell, Billy Armstrong, Bruce Springsteen, down to the regular "keyboard warrior" folks and "community organizers" are choosing to do it differently.
 
So don't be a hypocrite now acting as if you are sad about what the world think of us… this is what you support… this is what you want.

Other countries are reacting directly to Trump's actions and the actions of his team. Not from the americans reactions to him. That suggestion is just silly.
 
Looks at Obama or the clintons. They were well respected internationally while at home, folks were harsh.

Thanks to modern technology, there's no such thing as keeping "our dirty laundry" from the rest of the world. As news good and bad now travels in nanoseconds. Secondly, people around the globe used to look up to the United States as a beacon of hope and one to be emulated. Sadly, that's no longer the case.
