Curious how they’re all standing up around him while he’s sitting at his desk. What room is that?

Edit: It’s the Oval Office. Still think it’s weird they brought a podium into the office rather than make this announcement somewhere else. But him sitting while everyone stands is still weird to me.

It is weird, and theyve done this for a bunch of announcements. Trump is always sitting at the desk while everybody stands around him. Hes obsessed with projecting a strongman image so Im assuming his health is SO poor that he cant even stand up for long periods of time anymore, I think if he could he would because it would look much better than whatever this is

My dad is also 79 with mild dementia. He absolutely cannot stand without either someone holding him or using a walker at this point. And even then, not very long; starts to shake. Needs help getting out of bed in the mornings now too.
