French President Emmanuel Macron arrived at the White House ready to present a strong and unified case for Europe, especially regarding support for Ukraine.
I'm curious if this is going to be the way leaders treat Trump going forward. And by curious I mean hopeful. Because that debacle in the Oval Office when Elon Musk completely owned him I think has made it clear that powerful people can dominate this man fairly easily. The guy who used to terrorize people in 2016 on the debate stage is gone. He's a dotering old man who doesn't even know where he is half the time. Interviews like this with other world leaders should be able to dominate the conversation fairly easily.
There is zero chance. I think the only thing that would happen would be he would just shut down all in person meetings in front of a camera. Just like he does with news organizations or press people he doesn't like... He just cries "they treat me badly" and bans them from the White House
If something makes him look or feel bad he just shuts it down.
How though. Every time I see him talking he's making a fool out of himself. How can people take anything he says serious when he constantly lies and talks like a 3 year old.
Like the movie Idiocracy. It used to be a pessimistic view of the future meant to be a comedy, yet it looks like an optimistic view of the near future, and looks more like a documentary right now.
The kid isn't even looking at trump.. plus when he said "you need to shush your mouth" trump wasn't even speaking. Probably reporters whispering to each other
I mean it was pretty well known that in his first term Trump was really awkward in meetings with foreign leaders. His schtick is very much catered toward Americans, and he’s got that aspect down pat. He says shit that flusters and disorients American democrats but when he’s with foreign leaders it becomes much more apparent how much more intelligent literally everyone else in the room is than than him and how utterly out of his league they are, and they’ve always treated him like an idiot child spouting off and often even openly laugh at stuff he says in earnest much to his embarrassment and anger
