Trump, with business leaders in Davos: "By the way, when he says he works for Siemens, he's the *president* of Siemens, but that's okay. That's a good way of saying it, but go ahead."
Siemens president: "But don't you work for your country?"
Don't miss the facial/vocal cues when he says "yeah we work for our country". He clearly is being derisive & sarcastic when he says that. He no more believes that he works for this country than he believes he is ever wrong.

(60,010 posts)I watched his body language. Trump does know cameras and how to be on one. He leaned into the Sieman's guy's space,
grabbed all the attention.
He also seemed to be in a good relaxed mood...strange.

(63,221 posts)Aside from Russia and maybe a few other third-world dictatorships, every single first world country despises him and they are laughing at him. He is a joke and he is completely unaware of it. He really thinks that people are impressed by him. It's amazing how clueless his is.

(32,044 posts)I hope there was a LOT of laughter over that. I'd love to see him be humiliated. He is such an embarrassment.
If he doesn't know how to talk about anything but himself, and doesn't want to interact with the rest of the world, then STAY HOME already and stop embarrassing us! Stay in your room and play with your phone all day. You are worthless, Dumpy.

(384 posts)He couldnt believe a person would not introduce themselves without using superlatives or their full title (If youre the president of Siemens why wouldnt you refer to yourself as the president?) Fucking blowhard.

(32,714 posts)...in other words, Trump said he'd work for free. Yeah right, it never happened and he hasn't donated one penny.
Trump tried to sneer at the Siemens President because he doesn't realize that presidents of some companies work their butts off to make their companies profitable. Trump has never done so, and he therefore assumes that everyone else just is like him. The Siemens President is obviously not like Trump and he wanted to make the point while he had the chance.
