[QUOTE="Gabriel Maxwell, post: 64283, member: 121"] [I]The Washington Post[/I] reported on Thursday evening that pissing off European leaders was a cherry on top of Paris Accord pullout for Trump: Pressure from leaders abroad also backfired. One senior White House official characterized disappointing European allies as “a secondary benefit” of Trump’s decision to withdraw. Macron was quoted in a French journal talking about his white-knuckled handshake with Trump at their first meeting in Brussels, where the newly elected French president gripped Trump’s hand tightly and would not let go for six long seconds in a show of alpha-male fortitude. “My handshake was not innocent,” Macron said. He likened Trump to a pair of authoritarian strongmen — Russian President Vladimir Putin and Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan — and said that he was purposefully forceful because he believed his encounter with Trump was “a moment of truth.” Hearing smack-talk from the Frenchman 31 years his junior irritated and bewildered Trump, aides said. A few days later, Trump got his revenge. He proclaimed from the Rose Garden, “I was elected to represent the citizens of Pittsburgh, not Paris.” [URL]https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/inside-trumps-climate-decision-after-fiery-debate-he-stayed-where-hes-always-been/2017/06/01/e4acb27e-46db-11e7-bcde-624ad94170ab_story.html[/URL] And [I][U]that[/U][/I] is the level of primitivism in the White House that America has sunk to. A 70-year old manchild who acts like an Internet troll and puts the wellbeing of children at stake over sticking it to those who don't worship him. He can cover himself in all the gold in the world - he's still a vulgar and primitive piece of trash. [/QUOTE]
