In fear of his life?

At a welcome celebration for the arrival of President Trump, hosted by Crown Prince Mohammed Salman, the offer of a ceremonial cup of coffee was warily accepted by Trump, who held it on his lap and never drank from the cup. Could this be that he is mistrustful of his host, fearing the same fate as the late Jamal Kashoggi ? With a reputation such as that of THE DONALD...I would be too. No one likes him...they all just tolerate him. Maybe a few drops of something other than Nescafe? A nefarious Maxwell House? Mrs. Folger's "special brew"? Juan Valdez getting even for you deporting his relatives to El Salvador? "Good to the last drop" ...or maybe your last drop!

I'm sure there are plenty of MAGATs who would take the fall for him!

He probably doesn't want to drink on camera since he had that water bottle mishap back in 2017.

Apparently a big insult culturally.

I forgot where I heard/saw this today. I just googled and saw a couple articles from pravda.ru (didn't click on that)

A couple others from sites I've never heard of. Newsweek has it, and rates it unverifiable leaning to True
