President Donald Trump embarked on a demanding trip last weekend to promote his peace plan in the Middle East. His journey began with a twelve-hour flight to Israel, where he met with families of hostages and delivered a significant address to the Knesset. Following this, he traveled to Sharm El-Sheikh for another major address at a meeting of world leaders. Despite the long day filled with formalities and social interactions, Trump appeared energetic throughout the trip.

At 79, Trump challenges typical perceptions of health and aging. His physician at Walter Reed National Military Center recently described his health as "exceptional," noting a cardiac age of 65. This assessment comes despite Trump's well-known lifestyle choices, which include a diet of cheeseburgers and Diet Coke, along with golf-cart rides for exercise.

The trip has drawn comparisons to the 1988 film "Big," where a teenage boy magically becomes an adult but retains his youthful mindset. While the character grapples with adult responsibilities, Trump seems to thrive in his role, displaying a consistent high energy level. Unlike the character's conflict, Trump appears to embrace his position without longing for simpler times.

Trump's ability to navigate complex political landscapes has surprised many. Historically, U.S. presidents have struggled with the challenges of Palestinian relations, often yielding disappointing results. However, Trump's confidence and unique personality have led to unexpected successes in this area. His supporters view him as a powerful figure, while critics express disbelief at his achievements.

The recent events in Israel and Egypt highlight Trump's unconventional approach to politics. His supporters argue that his straightforwardness allows him to address issues that others avoid. They point to his administration's actions on various topics, including immigration, women's sports, diversity initiatives in federal contracting, antisemitism on college campuses, military recruitment, and Iran's nuclear ambitions, as evidence of his effectiveness.

Trump's approach has sparked debate about the nature of leadership and the impact of his policies. As he continues to engage with international leaders, the implications of his actions will likely remain a focal point in discussions about U.S. foreign policy and domestic issues.
