Donald Trump on Wednesday did what Joe Biden used to often be accused of doing: He wandered off at a public event.

It happened at the G7 summit in France. Per Indy 100, “Footage appears to show Trump walking to his right after posing for a picture, while the other politicians in attendance stayed where they were. French president Emmanuel Macron then appeared to direct him back in the right direction… France’s Macron, Germany’s Friedrich Merz, Japan’s Sanae Takaichi, Italy’s Giorgia Meloni, Britain’s Sir Keir Starmer and Canada’s Mark Carney make up the leaders of the Group of Seven wealthy nations.”

Trump, for much of the summit, appeared tired and unenergetic. He even neglected to do his patented push-pull handshake with Macron, opting for a limp handshake instead.

Social media users had plenty to say about Trump’s lack of direction at the international summit, with some even calling for his removal via the 25th Amendment. Others remembered that Joe Biden was frequently eviscerated during his presidency by Trump supporters at similar moments- people who are much quietier now that Trump is having “senior moments.”
