Trump winces during military flyover at Xi arrival ceremony
The viral clip renewed questions about Trump’s health after he recoiled from the noise as two B-1 bombers passed overhead.
- On Wednesday, President Donald Trump winced and recoiled as two U.S. Air Force B-1 Lancer bombers roared over Joint Base Andrews during the ceremonial welcome for Chinese President Xi Jinping.
- An unusually elaborate arrival ceremony at the base featured a 100-foot red carpet and military honors, departing from customary White House diplomatic protocol for visiting foreign leaders.
- While Trump appeared startled, remarking to Xi, 'That was really loud,' the Chinese leader remained stone-faced and unmoved throughout the display, sparking widespread online commentary and mockery.
- Senator Roger Wicker of Mississippi criticized the 'lavish' trip for a 'dictator,' emphasizing ongoing disputes regarding trade, human rights, and China's military build-up during the state visit.
- Although online speculation linked the reaction to health concerns, no medical evidence confirms a diagnosis; the visit continues with formal talks and a state dinner for the leaders.
