President Trump on Monday said he told world leaders while in France over the weekend that the United States "must be treated fairly" on trade and military funding.

"Just returned from France where much was accomplished in my meetings with World Leaders. Never easy bringing up the fact that the U.S. must be treated fairly, which it hasn’t, on both Military and Trade," he wrote in a tweet.

"We pay for LARGE portions of other countries military protection, hundreds of billions of dollars, for the great privilege of losing hundreds of billions of dollars with these same countries on trade. I told them that this situation cannot continue - It is, and always has been, ridiculously unfair to the United States," Trump continued.

He added that other countries must either "pay the United States" or protect themselves.

4. Maybe instead of asking for money from other coubtries

for protecting "them," Trump should ask for protection money from corporations like Exxon Mobil, for our government protecting their workers?

5. You can tell world leaders whatever you want, they're no longer listening.

7. When I was a young mother, my own children's voices would fade into the background...

... whenever they were being boisterous, or interrupting, or seeking attention, or whining, or tattle-telling, or begging. Somehow I was just able to turn it off and tune it out.

I imagine that this skill is being learned by world leaders whenever Trump starts-in on one of his "me me me" attention-seeking, bullying tantrums.
