Is that because he wouldn't be served KFC or Big Macs, or is it because he's not a world leader? Or is there something else going on?
Update: Looks like he made it after all. He's hanging out with Erdogan. https://www.dailysabah.com/diplomacy/2018/11/10/erdogan-first-lady-talk-with-trump-at-dinner-in-paris

(6,839 posts)10. Hmm. No WW1 memorial, no Peace Forum, no dinner with the world leaders--
Why did he bother to go to Paris? Just to meet with Putin?
Or, is something else up?

And why the heck is our press not accurately reporting what is happening? The press pool is vague about what happened.
