The mistake right now is that Stoltenberg, and co are so stunned by Trumps low rent gangster rants that they dont punch back right in his face. Merkel a little; May will smile. Churchills is the better way. Call him the malignant, ignorant thug that he is.

(9,350 posts)The reason they will not call hin out to his face is that they know it will not make him be a better person. They realize that if called out he will just get up and walk out of the room. The other world leaders are trying to keep the international order together and wait until Trump leaves office. Also, I think world leaders are worried about Trump moving closer to Putin. I think they treat him with kid gloves because they do not want to push him closer to Putin.

(82,849 posts)But yes, I would send a dollar to the first head of state who interrupts Trump to say, "It's obvious you don't know what you're talking about." Then go on to another topic, quick.

(359 posts)I don't think it's enough to move quickly to another topic. Show this ass up by bombarding him with TRUTH, and examples that illuminate it. Reduce him to a blubbering of mass of "but . . . but . . . but."
Or to paraphrase Little Edie in Grey Gardens, "that shut him up quick."
