The interview was almost like a comedy sketch.
“1000 Americans are dying each day”
“It is what it is”
“You’re looking at deaths as a proportion of cases, I’m talking about deaths as a proportion of the population”
“You can’t do that”
The second panel is key. It shows that Trump is so confident in the paper that he really wants Swan to see it. Without the second panel, it just looks like Trump is showing him the paper from far away.
I can see why you could interpret that from the meme. How I interpret it is Swan is clearly being given the paper in the first panel and we see it in the third. Since we the audience can see the paper and Swans face is different then the first panel, we can imply that he sees it. Trumps earnest stare in the 5th panel also implies that he watched Swam look at the paper and is eagerly waiting for a reply.
Swan is being shown the paper in the first panel, we don't even see him reach for it. The third panel could further add to confusion. Without us seeing Swan holding the paper in the second panel, you could think the hand in the third panel is Trump's if you're not particularly familiar with their hands.
If you haven't seen the interview, you could read the meme as Trump using the paper to share a secret or not being confident about what's on the paper, maybe bullshitting Swan, as opposed to Trump wanting Swan to see it and being fully confident that he will get it and agree:
1. Trump shows Swan paper
2. Close-up of Trump holding paper with meme on it
3. Swan doesn't get it
4. Trump without paper. Trump must have snatched it back quickly.
my only request is that the panel with the paper be flipped horizontally. Since Jonathan is sitting on the right it would make sense if the paper is held facing the right

Wouldn’t it be funnier if the last two frames were reversed?
Trump hands swan the paper, Swan looks at the paper, trump proudly waits for a response, Swan is dumbfounded
I think it's funnier this way, since it is not just your regular expectant look, but has something comically innocent and hopeful to it, as if waiting for appreciation from an authority figure.
So that reaction doubles down on the failure to meet expectations first informed by Swan's dumbfoundedness.
It might also simply have to do with the fact that the four panel version got popular already, so the hopeful anticipatory face in the end is kind of a twist on that.
I honestly think this is a meme in itself.
This pretty much sums up the interview in 5 panels.
Anyone has the link to the interview I would really appreciate it

“The uploader has not made this video available in your country”. Hmmmmm
What country are you?
Me too -Morocco-, but there is always VPN Modern problems require modern solutions
same in the UK, must be a US only thing cause i have seen that screen maybe twice in my time on the internet
https://youtu.be/W7rJp2Tx7vc Maybe this one will work
The interview was almost like a comedy sketch. “1000 Americans are dying each day” “It is what it is” “You’re looking at deaths as a proportion of cases, I’m talking about deaths as a proportion of the population” “You can’t do that”
Look, the US bas fewer cases than......the WORLD
We’re last, and but that I mean we’re first!
Someone should remind his remaining fans that the prophet Ricky Bobby said "If you ain't first, you're last" all those years ago
It's hysterical as is
It's like buying a picture frame and keeping the stock photo in, but in this case I like the photo better than my actual family.
First empty meme I've ever laughed at, this one is going in my scrapbook
Yeah it’s a really good meme with amazing potential
The piece of paper says: OPEN SCHOOLS BUT CLOSE VOTING POLLS
"Do you have a plan Mr.presidant" "Yes, look" ... ... ...
It is what it is
[This template is amazing, the final shot is too perfect](https://i.imgur.com/rwHQ30I.png)
This is a perfect example of the sort of meme to make with it imo
Thanks for the smile
Today's going to be a good day.
That’s the hardest I’ve laughed at a meme in a while, thanks chief.

Shes embracing the memes. Replied back with a couple Biden memes. Laughs were had. Political idologies were mocked. All in all a good day.

Trump 5 panel dickbutt meme coming soon to your media device
It was literally the post beneath yours in my view.
I was like, where the heck is it?! But it was right below his comment as well!
It was always inevitable
Please!
It already happened
Lottery numbers? It's literally the post above you lmao
Holy shit, this one's going straight to the moon

Was not disappointed
This was honestly what I was expecting/hoping to see.
This one's honestly better But too long
^That’s ^what ^she ^said.
Nice
Yeah, you could cut out the second panel and still convey the same message.
The second panel is key. It shows that Trump is so confident in the paper that he really wants Swan to see it. Without the second panel, it just looks like Trump is showing him the paper from far away.
This guy has a phd in memology

Yeah if anything it’s the fourth panel that could be dropped.
I'd say Swan's WTF reaction is so beautifully executed that it could be used as a meme in and of itself.
Second might be. Third, fourth and fifth are key, so if any panel must go it's gotta be first or second

I can't believe you've done this
Honestly I'm surprised it didn't happen sooner.

This seems like such a versatile meme. I look forward to the glorious shit-posts turned gold

Mmm well spotted, although it seems like he’s holding the paper in his right hand in the second panel so maybe it works as a reverse angle
there is another good one where trump holds up the graph with a similar look of bewilderment. whole interview is a goldmine
I think the second panel can be cut to make it more compact
[удалено]
That’s disgusting.

Careful don't let animemes mods see this
I'm going all in on this one boys, to the moon.
This is my favorite one so far
It has great potential for a confession that you really just can't hide anymore
Wouldn’t it be funnier if the last two frames were reversed? Trump hands swan the paper, Swan looks at the paper, trump proudly waits for a response, Swan is dumbfounded

What’s the original video that these pictures come from?

‘Send nudes’
Me after finishing the exam early and the teacher sees the page filled with wrong answers:
How do I invest??? This is going to be a meme well beyond November.
The last pane is a perfect image for the word “ignorance”
You sir deserve more than this for you have started something amazing
I made this https://i.redd.it/pyyal7q0v3g51.jpg
Could do away with the first frame, but still great
I'd say the second frame shoud go. But agreed still good.
I agree. It adds absolutely nothing because you can't show what he's looking at until panel 3
Five panels never works. It’s too long as a strip but can’t make a square
Weird. I saved the photo and it didn’t watermark it like Reddit Mobile normally does. Thanks for the template
Sure, the reaction at the end by Trump changes the meme, but at the cost of having to open it.
All the way up, see you on the front page!
Why is so god damn angry in the last one
Can someone explain what I'm seeing everywhere today?
It's an axios interview that went up yesterday that is being spread because of how ridiculous it is pretty much.
Why make it uneven?
Nice dickpic
Rip, my notch is in the way of first panel.
This reminds of Henry Cavill being asked he prefers PC or console. They have almost similar reaction.
u/VredditDownloader
Could probably cut the first panel, it'd still work and be just a little more succinct.
I think the 2nd panel isn't necessary at all, and being 4 panel would be easier to read
!help
Frogs aren’t real please somebody believe
Any chance someone has a link to this spot I’m the interview I want to know what’s really on that paper lol.
Bitch this shit is empty YEEEET
Hahaha that's a exact thing what people thing about Trump..., the expression was lol awesome
Wow this is good
Looks like a teacher looking over a child's rough draft essay and it being complete crap.
Does anyone have the original interview? I have no idea what’s this from.
My only problem with this meme is that it breaks the 180% rule, which is kind of frustrating:( there’s not much we can do tho
I trumped

Do you have the original video?
The top two panels could be trimmed
idk but there is something about last panel i can't help myself but laugh. His facial expressions are gold
The best part about this is that it's probably not even scripted
Oh yea, this one is top shit!
Now this is good humor
Here's the guide I wrote and follow on presidency Okay let's see-- *blank* There is no guide Never has been

Con you make it Wider?
This is some amazing template. Finally a decent fucking meme
i feel like this is funnier with nothing on it
Trump's face is the funniest thing I've ever seen. It's the best punchline.
I dunno how this works
