Trump is eschewing the hand shake with diplomats & doing namaste in deference to coronavirus though he is the bearer of any number of other non-contagious diseases, like narcissism & imbecility. Namaste will never be the same again after appropriation by Trump imitating Modi. Yoga & meditation classes, massage & acupuncture sessions will now have to begin with a disclaimer: ‘Namaste, but not the Trump or Modi kind.’
