I opened a book and in I strode
Now nobody can find me

And dived in a bottomless ocean.

Posts saying it's probably just a joke.
If it's a joke, at least acknowledge it is in very poor taste.
If it's a joke, ask if this is the type of humour you expect from a president who attended the Pope's funeral only days ago?
Ask why people keep using the word "probably".

If Putin decides Russia wants Alaska back and sends in his troops? Would that be the fault of the USA? Would they immediately hand over vast amounts of the country rather than defend their own citizens? Let's hope Trump's stance on Ukraine isn't giving Putin ideas.
