I think it's awful the way the other world leaders laughed behind President Trump's back at the NATO summit. How unprofessional. How indecorous.
I mean -- what US President would EVER use a public setting to mock or ridicule another person? World leader or not? Such a thing would be absolutely unthinkable.
Oh wait

If true? Is it mocking?

(14,490 posts)Someone should prepare a TV spot showing clips of some of tRump's most caustic insults to world leaders and key personalities around the globe.
At least let the public see how hypocritical it is to make an issue of some leaders in an informal setting having a giggle among themselves - perhaps about a buffoon that never hesitates to spew hateful insults.
Personally, I thought it humorous that BoJo was included in the circle.......

(14,173 posts)Why does the MSM news media even pretend that this is some terrible faux pas for those other leaders to comment on such an irrational behaved person, verbally abusive to many of them, who it looks like was late because of a 40 minute presser he wanted to do, screw their time. It only seems normal that there'd be comments on that. Obviously not for the camera, that wasn't planned. They respect him or his office enough not to do that.

In my experience, a lot of people who self-identify as "straight-shooters" or "just-telling-it-like-it-is" types have the same problem.
