President Trump slammed Germany on July 11, over a gas pipeline deal with Russia. He said the country is now "captive to Russia. (Reuters)

Next to him, three of his senior officials seemed uncomfortable at times, pursing their lips and glancing away from the table...................

(82,849 posts)Not upset at all about Trump's stupid bullshit. Is that how you want to be known, John? I mean, if I was disappointed in the meal service, I think I could get over it in a big hurry and not look all pouty about it. But Sanders says you just had to sit there looking like a spoiled little brat because breakfast wasn't what you wanted. You're okay with that characterization, right?
