Weekend Wrap Up: The Must-See Moments You Might Have Missed – 12.9.24
Happy Monday everyone.
I hope you had a lovely weekend. Let’s catch up on what you might have missed!
UNITY
First up, First Lady Jill Biden and President-elect Donald J. Trump had a chit chat in France at the re-opening of the Notre Dame Cathedral. The pictures took the internet by storm.
In true Trump fashion, the troll king is now using the images to promote his cologne.
Those weren’t the only pictures sure to drive the left insane.
While Trump was meeting with world leaders, Biden was holding a presser about the fall of Syria’s Bashar Assad.
It did not go well.
In another alarming moment, Biden answers a question about U.S. journalist Austin Tice who was kidnapping in Syria in 2012.
Almost immediately after, he totally forgets who he was talking about.
Trump took to X and posted the following on the Syria unrest.
“Opposition fighters in Syria, in an unprecedented move, have totally taken over numerous cities, in a highly coordinated offensive, and are now on the outskirts of Damascus, obviously preparing to make a very big move toward taking out Assad. Russia, because they are so tied up in Ukraine, and with the loss there of over 600,000 soldiers, seems incapable of stopping this literal march through Syria, a country they have protected for years. This is where former President Obama refused to honor his commitment of protecting the RED LINE IN THE SAND, and all hell broke out, with Russia stepping in. But now they are, like possibly Assad himself, being forced out, and it may actually be the best thing that can happen to them. There was never much of a benefit in Syria for Russia, other than to make Obama look really stupid. In any event, Syria is a mess, but is not our friend, & THE UNITED STATES SHOULD HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH IT. THIS IS NOT OUR FIGHT. LET IT PLAY OUT. DO NOT GET INVOLVED!”
COLD SHOULDER
On Sunday, Jill and Joe were back together again for the 47th Kennedy Center Honors event.
Unfortunately for the honorees, the First Couple’s behavior toward Kamala and Doug garnered most of the night’s attention.
School The Press
Other important moments from this weekend include Trump’s interview with NBC’s Kristen Welker.
Here are some of the clips that had people talking.
