The article comments on Donald Trump's abrupt departure from the G7 summit, describing it in a humorous light as a strategic escape. White House spokesperson Karoline Leavitt communicated his exit to the public, likely to distract from the implications of Trump's actions and comments about global tensions—from Iran to the stock market's reaction. The author explores deeper themes around political maneuvering and personal reflections during a restless night, connecting the dots between press announcements, international diplomacy, and personal wellbeing amid political uncertainty.
