How do you think he came out looking good after this? Do you mean this was some elaborate play to "expose" Trump..?
I personally think everyone looked rather unprofessional in this meeting..
- doublerabbit 2y agoMore than unprofessional. Embarrassing is an understatement.
- afavour 2y agoI don’t think it was some elaborate ruse… he is a trained actor but his frustration seemed very real. And maybe he shouldn’t have shown it but I do think he was simply reacting to what was unfolding in front of him. IMO he’s damned if he does and damned if he doesn’t. Maybe he could have been more professional and statesmanlike but I don’t think it would have earned him a thing. The US strategy seems locked in at this point and it’s a pro-Russia one. He could have really flexed the “deal with a heckler” muscles but the risk is far too great. European leaders are queuing up to restate their support for Ukraine after this and I think that’s probably the best he could have gotten from it anyway.
