During a moment with reporters at the G7 summit, Donald Trump and UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer shared news of a trade agreement they had reached. While they spoke, a peculiar incident unfolded that caught the attention of people on the internet.
As they were discussing the deal, Trump accidentally let go of some ‘historic’ documents, which made for an amusing scene that quickly spread across social media. The moment showed Trump and Starmer standing outside, with Trump eager to display the signed agreement.
“We just signed a document. This is…” Trump started to say before he lost his grip, sending several pages tumbling to the ground. In thick, black ink, his signature was visible on the top page. “Sorry about that,” he mentioned casually, not bending down to retrieve the papers.
It was Prime Minister Starmer who leaned over, collected the fallen sheets, and remarked with laughter: “A very important document!”
As the wind tussled with the papers, Trump joked, “It’s a little windy out here, give me that…” He continued confidently, “We just signed it, and it’s done. And so we have our trade agreement with the European Union, and it’s a fair deal for both.”
However, viewers quickly noticed an unusual aspect: many of the ‘historic’ pages appeared to be blank. This detail did not escape the quick-eyed internet community.
Questions began popping up on social media. A curious user wondered, “Are those documents blank?”
Another puzzled viewer commented, “Plain blank document, for what?” while a third humorously added, “Holy smokes. The US-UK trade deal is a blank piece of paper and only Trump signed it.”
A fourth person observed, “Blank pages!!! ALL OF THEM!”
Someone else jokingly suggested, “It’s the first trade agreement written entirely in invisible ink and ego,” and another lamented, “Incompetence personified.”
Another onlooker noted, “I thought the papers looked blank when Starmer picked them up.”
In a lighthearted manner, one commenter declared, “Oh no, they weren’t supposed to see that, Trump was just showing off his signature again.”
One more outraged viewer stated, “This isn’t getting nearly enough attention – and it should be. There’s so much going on here, it’s hard to keep up.”
“Trump just proudly waved around blank pages, convinced he signed a ‘historic deal’ with the European Union – while standing next to Keir Starmer, the Prime Minister of the UK, a country that left the EU post-Brexit.
“He can’t even bend over to pick up the papers he drops – physically or politically. And yet some think he’s the hero of the day?
“Meanwhile, the broader backdrop includes shaky diplomacy with Iran and global tensions that seem on the brink of escalating.”
They concluded, reflecting a deep concern: “Seriously folks, it’s alarming. We’re witnessing global disarray fueled by someone who perhaps views international agreements as mere platforms for flashy signatures.”
