US President Donald Trump visited Saudi Arabia on his first foreign trip since taking office in January. During his tour Donald Trump gave a speech about Islam, awkwardly took part in a ‘men-only’ sword dance and touched a glowing orb. Rest assured, the entire trip gave us a goldmine of tweets and jokes.
With the right soundtrack, Trump's visit to Riyadh looks like the perfect Asian wedding video #RiyadhSummit pic.twitter.com/y1LfcemS0B

I've never felt more empathy for Donald Trump than now, when he is expected to dance but can't. https://t.co/0UZRoMyLHk

Arriving at Murabba Palace, Trump briefly participates in traditional Saudi "sword" dance, swaying side to side. LACKING RHYTHM OF COURSE. pic.twitter.com/g1ZjGlgrv2

He also put his hands on a glowing globe at the Global Center for Combatting Extremist Ideology with King Salman and the Egyptian President. The photo, however, was extremely reminiscent of every science fiction/ fantasy movie and Twitter made Lord of The Rings and Harry Potter references..

Why does this look like the scene in Harry Potter where the death eaters find the prophecy orb in the department of mysteries pic.twitter.com/VYW5LfpUly
