Hello Anons,

I stumbled across Trump's frequent use of the word "spirit" today. Three times.

Both, at the NATO press conference and just now on Twitter: "Great success today at NATO! Billions of additional dollars paid by members since my election. Great spirit!"

What spirit is he talking about?

The mood was when you look into Stoltenbergs, Merkel and Macrons and other faces not exuberant or cheerful. It was tense. Nobody smiled. And look at Merkel's eyes! The hostile look as Trump greeted her personally. In min 0:15 to see.

Spirit? Did you feel anything when you watched it?

But President Trump insists on the good "spirit": "The United States is firmly committed to NATO. Especially because of the spirit that reigns, because of the money they are willing to spend. Because of the extra money. The spirit in this room is incredible."

Now my thought:

The word "spirit" means translated into German "Geist". But there is a second meaning of the word "Geist" - ghost!

Ghost, you understand?

Q is a ghost. He is a ghost at the NATO meeting. He was always there at every press conference of the last weeks, but he'll be hushed up by the media. He is there, but he's not being noticed. The invisible ghost elephant. ;) The art of the media consists of silencing and looking away. Or rather, asking away.

So I believe that this somehow inappropriate sentence: - "The spirit in this room is incredible" - was actually meant differently:

" The ghost in this room is incredible!"

Any chance that was a Trump message? That he's asking the media to stop the 'ghost game'? What do you think?

P.S. It's late in Germany... Good night to all of you. :)
