(32,917 posts)I predicted this would happen. Jet-lag is real and unavoidable, and it's especially hard on older people. There's no way that Trump could fly 7 time-zones east and not have it affect his body-clock.
The way to combat jet-lag is to get there a day early and take it easy on the first day. Go to bed early and sleep a full night. You wake up the next day on Arab time (or Europe time) and you'll be OK.
But he didn't listen despite everyone telling him that this is what he had to do.
Now as a result he's been a narcoleptic dummy this entire trip. The same thing happened again when he came back home. What an asshole.

(10,178 posts)Plus, he's hugely overweight and out of shape. I'm a year younger than Trump and I just recently flew to South Africa via an overnight trip to London, all day in London, and then another overnight to SA. After a good night's rest, I was ready to go the next day! And since I was in a crmped economy seat, I certainly didn't have the comfort of Air Force One. What a luxury, and yet Trump was too tired even to walk 700 yards after having several days to adjust to the time change. What a loser!

His twitter feed when his Muslim ban lost (and lost again and again) is good, but there is more that can be gotten out of him.

(111,475 posts)It will be a challenge to spot it because he favors stage makeup. It's a reddish color with a lot of blue in it. People who develop it are within months of disaster, at the very most.
I think champagne corks will be popping all over the country when he leaves office, no matter how he leaves it.

(60,010 posts)Golf used to be recommended as a way to get exercise, but then somebody invented the golf cart.
during the day, he is sitting most of the time, and goes from front door to a vehicle or helicopter to airplane.
Using the golf cart in Brussels may have been a way for him to avoid talking to any of the other members. as well.

"The son of a bitch l'm looking for will be on the front page" the customer said and walked away.

dixiegrrrrl
(60,010 posts)and in the pic from the Nato meeting.
The impression I got from the pics is that he was pouting. He does not like to share limelight,
and in the Brussels meeting he was just one of many.
What he does is all the attention grabbing behaviors, like what he did during the debate with Hillary,
pacing around the stage, interrupting, making faces.
I viewed one of his depositions, where he did the same thing when forced to sit thru the session which
he had no control over..he wiggled, lots of body movement, made faces and loudly turned pages and tried joking.
I did notice at the Nato meeting, Merkel was markedly noticing his lack of headphones, closed eyes.
So his attention seeking behavior worked for a bit.
He is incapable of being just a member of a group. It has to be all him or nothing else, even if he has to assault someone to get in the front row of cameras.

rainbow4321
(9,974 posts)All the walking, etc..he had to do over there was not the normal sloth life he is used to back at the WH. I say "all the walking"...pfft..cuz to him it probably felt like a marathon. And (gasp) he had to do a FULL day's worth of work for nine days and meetings as opposed to lounging around, watching cable news and tweeting.
He was waaaaaaaaayyyyyyy out of his league amongst the real leaders of the world who most likely work from sunrise to a late bedtime doing the work of the people who elected them.
Totally out of his element.

If you take him out of his home/normal routine he literally gets disoriented, distracted, needs his wife/kids to direct him. They've taken him on a couple trips into cities/crowds and they have to decide ahead who gets to "keep track of dad", they have to take turns so no one person gets exhausted.
They neglected to give drumf a minder like that.

He was not in good health to start with and he is not handling the workload or the stress well at all. He could easily stroke out on us and then the conspiracy theories would go on forever... McConnell and Ryan would be ECSTATIC. That would solve so many problems for them.
