I’m not sure how I missed this when it came out, but here is the president of Egypt, the king of Saudi Arabia, and the president of the United States touching a glowing orb in a darkened room (NYT, Business Insider, Business Insider again). As I pan across this image from left to right, what I see is the president of Egypt looking as if he has done this before, the king of Saudi Arabia looking terrified, Melania Trump looking pretty much the way she always does, and the president of the United States looking like this is how he thinks a president of the United States is supposed to look in a situation like this. Perhaps the Theseus Protocol is coming sooner than expected.
