I guess the ginormous table he used with Macron just wasn't big enough.
*I borrowed the Zoom idea from another tweeter.

(44,974 posts)1. Macron refused to be tested for covid by the Russians.

"Mussolini had his desk at the end of an enormous room, and people who came to see him had to awkwardly walk a long distance to get to him, while he either pretended to ignore them or glared at them. Such tricks make autocrats feel powerful."
