By now, you have probably seen videos of Trump embarrassing himself by refusing to leave the stage during the trophy presentation to a team that won a soccer tournament.
I played soccer in high school, but I don't follow soccer, so I don't know much about this tournament. I think it was held in New Jersey, an East Coast state in the United States of America.
Trump was there, and presented the trophy. At that point,the Tournament Director, or whatever he is called. guided Trump off of the stage,so the winning team could jump up and down, celebrate their win (I believe they won by a convincing tally of 3-0, but I am not sure), and get some photos taken.
But Trump refused to leave the stage.
In several videos I have seen, it appears that the Director,and even players on the winning team, are trying to help Trump off of the stage. But he does not leave until he is sort of "pushed" into the background by the players.and the Director.
I have read that Championship photos have been posted with Trump "edited out," but I cannot verify this.
What are your thoughts? Had you seen his? Did it really happen? Is it all AI? Is this a nightmare?
I'll attach recent photo of some guys who won a softball tournament. You can find me in the photo. Donald Trump was not there. Nor were any other politicians.

He really did want to hang around for a bit longer
I was not surprised by that.

I have no idea about whether that is fact or fake news.
One day a photo with Trump might hold some value

I'm glad they took the initiative and pushed him back. He is such a narcissistic brute. Has to be the center of it all. Has no class. Sorry. I could go on and on about this lower life form.
