Donald Trump seems to have finally completely lost the plot as he waved to a completely empty space.
On Monday, the US president was walking to a helicopter as he travelled to Kansas for a rally supporting Republican candidates in the upcoming midterm elections.
As he was walking across the helipad, Trump paused and stopped, before turning to his left and waving and gesturing.

Watching news footage of the moment, you’d naturally assume he was waving to some sort of crowd of fans and supporters who had gathered.
But, as the camera zoomed out, it revealed that Trump was in fact waving into the abyss to absolutely nobody.
Reacting to the clip on social media, many praised the camera operator for their work, exposing Trump’s insanity.
Meanwhile, others though the footage was further evidence of Trump’s cognitive decline, and wondered what the press reaction would have been if his predecessor Joe Biden had done anything like this.
The bizarre moment comes less than two weeks before Americans go to the polls in some of the most crucial midterm elections of recent memory.
The polls suggest the Republicans are set to lose control of both the House of Representatives and the Senate as a ‘blue wave’ cascades over America.
Trump’s approval rating is at a record low as Americans start to feel the impact of his war in Iran, and Democratic candidates are leading in a number of crucial Senate races.
Should the Democrats win control of both Congress bodies, it would slam the brakes on MAGA 2.0 and effectively leave Trump’s presidency dead in the water.
