The President Trump at Davos That the Left Didn't Want You to See

"Epic moment as all the world leaders were ECSTATIC to meet President Trump like he's a celebrity. Trump went one-by-one after they signed the Board of Peace in Davos. He has everybody CAPTIVATED! This is why the whole world takes him so seriously." -Eric Daugherty, via X

[PJMedia.com] In every case, there is the event the media and the left want you to see, and the one that actually happened. President Donald Trump's trip to Davos this week provides a perfect illustration of this. (Screengrab image: via X)

Trump delivered his fourth speech at the World Economic Forum's annual meeting in Switzerland to the world's leaders, and he knocked it out of the park. His remarks were prepared, but that didn't stop him from improvising a little. One of the best descriptions of it, and I saw a few people on the X platform describe it this way, was that it was like watching a lion finally getting tired of toying with its prey.

Of course, that's not the narrative the left wants you to have. This is what they want you to think happened:

["Moment Trump arrived in Davos, Switzerland no one was there to receive him. No official welcome. No delegation. Just a silent arrival at the world's most elite forum." -Caption from an X post by SilencedSirs, which was tagged by Community Notes explaining that "Davos is a private international conference, not an affair of state. Many heads of state have arrived in similar circumstances, without any sort of fanfare. The WEF's release discussing this year's meeting mentions no arrival ceremonies, and in the past there have been none."]

A carefully selected camera angle, some snow, and an isolated American leader. Lost. But just minutes later, when the president walked onto the stage for his remarks, the mood changed. This is something you won't see on leftist media or on your woke brother-in-law's Facebook thread.

While I wouldn't go as far as to say the crowd stood on its feet out of a sense of admiration for Trump, it is clear that when he enters a room, everyone knows, and they know it matters. He commands respect. He's larger than life, and to a person, this is understood. (Screengrab image: via X-Jack Posobiec)

This carries over to how other world leaders treat him when they have the opportunity to meet him face-to-face. You can see that they, too, know they're around someone who is the real deal.
