...To hold umbrellas over his and the Turkish Prime Minister's heads -

what else do you do in this situation? I guess he could have held it himself. I agree it is ridiculous looking and even insulting, but now that I think about it what would be the right way to do this?

I guess seed the clouds so it rains earlier in the day :)

I am sure they could fabricate something like standing umbrellas?

yeah but they would look dumb if it was nice out. They would have to bring them out when it starts raining, and that would still be awkward. I am thinking maybe a clear dome way above them.

If it looks like rain could occur, then roll out a high portable tent (with wheels) that is just large enough to cover the Pres and his guest. Or better yet, if it looks like rain could occur, hold the press conference in the WH press room. It ain't rocket science!

what if there is wind? Then it quickly could become near rocket science! You can't be decapitating the french prime minister with a rain canopy can you?

OK, so I'm not a keeping everybody dry expert . You would think I would be considering I live in a rain forest. :D

They should have held it for the Prime Minister because he is a guest of our country.


The Presadent should have held his own. How insulting to the Corp.

It's like .." come and serve me you lower class person"

But then again. This is how he thinks.
