Trump lämnar golfbanan efter helgens andra runda
Klockan 09.57 på söndagen, 16-tiden svensk tid, rullade USA:s nuvarande president Donald Trump in på sin golfbana i Virginia, för andra dagen i rad.
Han möttes av både jubel och protester, skriver Wall Street Journal. Vissa personer höll upp skyltar med budskapet ”Trump 2020” medan en annan skylt lydde ”Trumpty dumpty had a great fall”, en blinkning till barnvisan om ägget Humpty Dumpty som ramlade och slogs i bitar.
När han lämnade golfbanan ett par timmar senare gjorde han två tummar upp genom bilrutan.
Joe Biden gick i stället till kyrkan på söndagsförmiddagen, skriver Sky News. Bilder visar hur han anländer till lokalen tillsammans med familjemedlemmar.
bakgrund
Humpty Dumpty
Wikipedia (en)
Humpty Dumpty is a character in an English nursery rhyme, probably originally a riddle and one of the best known in the English-speaking world. He is typically portrayed as an anthropomorphic egg, though he is not explicitly described as such. The first recorded versions of the rhyme date from late eighteenth-century England and the tune from 1870 in James William Elliott's National Nursery Rhymes and Nursery Songs. Its origins are obscure, and several theories have been advanced to suggest original meanings.
Humpty Dumpty was popularised in the United States on Broadway by actor George L. Fox in the pantomime musical Humpty Dumpty. The show ran from 1868 to 1869, for a total of 483 performances, becoming the longest-running Broadway show until it was passed in 1881. As a character and literary allusion, Humpty Dumpty has appeared or been referred to in many works of literature and popular culture, particularly English author Lewis Carroll's 1871 book Through the Looking-Glass, in which he was described as an egg. The rhyme is listed in the Roud Folk Song Index as No. 13026.
