Trump claims he received 'deep respect' at Nato summit despite video showing world leaders laughing

Donald Trump has claimed he received "deep respect" during this week's Nato summit in London, despite a viral video showing world leaders laughing at him for his lengthy press conferences.

Mr Trump lashed out at the press coverage of his trip in a tweet, in which he said the London trip was "VERY successful", even though the summit was outwardly marked by the video as well as tension between the president and some of America's closest allies including French president Emmanuel Macron and Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau.

"The Fake News Media is doing everything possible to belittle my VERY successful trip to London for NATO. I got along great with the NATO leaders, even getting them to pay $130 Billion a year more, & $400 Billion a year more in 3 years," Mr Trump tweeted. "No increase for US, only deep respect!"

how Putin-the-puppet-master can get his hand so far up in there when IQ45's own head is so far up in there?

but that's up to him. Impeachment isn't a harsh enough punishment for him.

Of course they disrespected him, because he earned every second of their scorn. He knows what's going on or he wouldn't have left.
Gaslighter in chief - it's the only thing in the world he's consistent about = he always lies.

There is no way he can accept what actually happened. Narcissists rewrite history all the time. They engage in a level of self deception that is truly mind boggling.

What he got was pwned.

His gaslighting is wasted on me and millions more sentient beings on earth!
