President Trump’s successful trip to the Middle East was marked by memorable moments, but one in particular had MAGA rolling.
From lavish ceremonies to lucrative business deals, Trump’s four-day excursion overseas even had former Biden and Obama officials admitting they were in ‘awe.’
One shining moment near the end of the trip went viral for the hilarious way the U.S. president accepted a gift from Emirati hosts.
After opening a small plaque featuring “the highest quality oil on the planet,” Trump teasingly questioned why they only gave him “a drop.”
“I’m not thrilled,” he jokingly said as the room, clearly not infected by TDS, had a good laugh.

Biden begged for oil.
Trump joked and still got the best stuff.
Even if it was just a taste.
That’s called alpha energy, bro!— Narasimha R N AI – Disciple @69 (@NarasimhaRN5) May 16, 2025
“One drop is better than no drop”.
Oh man, what a mouthful.
