webfact Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 Revealed: the 'real' reason why Donald Trump and Theresa May held hands - and it's not what you think Robert Mendick, chief reporter Peter Dominiczak, political editor So it wasn’t necessarily an affectionate holding of hands after all WASHINGTON: -- It has emerged that Theresa May was only photographed hand in hand with Donald Trump - because, bizarre as it sounds, the president may have a fear of slopes and needed a soothing arm to negotiate a downhill stretch of path. The image of the pair holding hands was beamed around the world, to the delight of supporters of the new President but to the consternation of those - many of them in the UK - far less keen on Mr Trump. But Government sources in Washington DC were suggesting that the hand-holding was not as a result of a deep and lasting friendship after all.

ezzra Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 Could it be that Trump just wanted to make sure May will not run in away sheer fright after he would confide in her about his plans to rule the world?...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stargeezr Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 They were holding hands to keep from punching each other. Leaders may sometimes be friendly to another, but to be real friends, well that takes lots of time, and these two are new. I like that reason that one of them needed a helping hand.

IAMHERE Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 (edited) Donald needs a hand to hold unto while going down slopes? Who is going to hold his hand on the way down Dante's Inferno ? It looks as though the US is going to become more like the bad guy the rest of the world thinks it is; in many ways this is good. For way too long 'America First' has only been a jingle.

connda Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Just an observation, but articles like this article from the Telegraph really do border on the type of tabloid journalism that rags like the National Enquirer engaged in. And then major newspapers and news outlets wonder why they are losing readership and market share? It might be that readers who are looking for substance in the realm of geo-politics are now pretty well put off by this type of reporting and have found more substantive journalism elsewhere such as in the Foreign Affairs magazine published by the CFR.. Would members and the followers of the Council on Foreign Relations care why Trump and May are holding hands? Personally I doubt it. I don't. I'd say that we are much more interested in the outcome of their discussions and meetings and what it means to future US/Germany/EU foreign policy. I'd much rather see some real substance to journalism and less fluff. But, this is simply my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
