The President dipped down during a ceremonial greeting, then looked massively uncomfortable having a boogie with a sword.
Donald Trump looked incredibly uncomfortable dancing with a massive sword during his trip to Saudi Arabia.
The US President is set to give a speech later today on tackling Islamic extremism, in his first major overseas trip since becoming President.
And yesterday another of his old tweets came back to haunt him, as he bowed down before the Saudi king for a ceremonial welcome - after complaining several years ago about Barack Obama doing the same thing.
Here's what he said in 2014

.@BarackObama bowed to the Saudi King in public--yet the Dems are questioning @MittRomney's diplomatic skills.
And here's what happened yesterday

It may look like a bow, but if you check the footage, it's more of a curtsy

Remember when conservatives slammed Obama for bowing in front of the Saudi king?

Then he pulled this face while he danced with a bunch of guys with swords
Secretary of Sate Rex Tillerson and Secretary of Commerce Wilbur Ross were TOTALLY into dancing around with weapons
But Chief Strategist Steve Bannon looked like he wanted to be literally anywhere else, please

Oh, and while he was there, Donald Trump signed a $110 billion arms deal with Saudi Arabia, a nation he once accused of being behind the 9/11 attacks

The ongoing deal will likely be worth $380 billion within a decade. No big deal.
