When Donald Trump arrived in Malaysia for the ASEAN Summit, he got the full VIP treatment complete with police escorts and highways so empty they looked like a CGI render.
His first official visit included meetings with Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim, major trade discussions, and even a peace accord signing.
But what really caught Malaysians’ attention was his ultra-smooth, zero-traffic convoy gliding through KL like a scene from an action movie.
Meanwhile, a Malaysian user on Threads posted a hilarious comparison that perfectly summed up the difference between VIP life and normal life.
On one side: Trump’s motorcade enjoying a totally clear highway. On the other: his own view, stuck behind a Proton Iriz in a massive, endless traffic jam that stretched all the way to the horizon.
To further add on to the irony, the OP wrote the following caption: “President Trump’s POV vs mine”.
Malaysians joked that his jam looked like a “bigger convoy than Trump’s,” teased that he had cars “in front, behind, left, right,” and even questioned how the MEX Highway suddenly looked like a parking lot.
One commenter summed it up perfectly by saying it looked like he had “too many escorts,” just not the VIP kind.
