Although Putin probably enjoyed seeing SCROTUS shove the PM of Montenegro for the reasons CNN mentioned, the fact is Trump probably didn't know who the guy was and couldn't find Montenegro on a map. No doubt there was some sort of meet-and-greet reception at the beginning of the event, but somebody as self-obsessed as Dolt 45 wouldn't have remembered the names or countries of anyone else unless they were extremely Important (nobody was wearing "Hello, My Name Is ___" sticky tags). And if it meant getting to the front of the group for a photo op, he'd have shoved even an Important leader, even the Secretary General, who, I note, made the critical mistake of being taller than Himself, which probably made Himself hate NATO that much more.
