Trump winces as jets fly over during Xi arrival ceremony

washingtonexaminer.com —

President Donald Trump winced during a military flyover as he greeted Chinese President Xi Jinping at Joint Base Andrews on Wednesday evening. Trump, 80, flinched in apparent pain as two B-1 bombers flew overhead during the arrival ceremony, while Xi, 73, appeared unmoved. The event included the Air Force band, national anthems, and cannon fire, kicking off Xi's three-day state visit. The pair spoke briefly before departing separately for Washington, D.C., where they will reunite Thursday for another ceremony and a state dinner expected to include several Big Tech executives.
