Allies give blunt reviews of Trump's foreign trip

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

WASHINGTON — President Trump received a largely cordial welcome on the first overseas trip of his presidency. But now that he's returned to Washington, the foreign leaders he met with are increasingly blunt in their reviews of the American president.

In separate remarks intended mostly for domestic consumption, leaders of Germany, France and Israel all sought to distance themselves from Trump, just days after meeting with the president during his nine-day foreign trip to Saudi Arabia, Israel, Vatican City, Brussels and Italy. 

Among the sources of friction: Trump's reluctance to unreservedly commit to the North Atlantic alliance, his skepticism of a climate change accord signed on to by his predecessor, President Obama, and outreach to Palestinians in pursuit of a Middle East peace agreement. 

"It’s clear that in Europe at least, that anti-Trump position plays well domestically," said Ivo Daalder, a former U.S. ambassador to NATO in the Obama administration. "But the larger issue is that the trip didn’t go well in Europe."

1. Dear Europe: Yeah, we're sorry, too

While you get to put him on a jet and see him off, we still have to live under this ignoramus.

2. Yeah. I was hoping against hope that he'd just keep on going--- to Russia. Elba. Saudi Arabia---

while he had the chance. I figured that it was his escape plan to avoid all the crap falling down around his shoulders now that he is back. He doesn't apologize. He probably can't buy his way out of it. His legal options look sketchy. So that leaves him with cut and run.

Since he didn't choose the cut and run option, if Congress ever gets around to it, one day maybe we'll have televised hearings that will make Watergate look like The People's Court.

3. I should hope to hell not

it didn't go "well".. Hell, we can all hear and see that. I'm grateful the Leaders are being "blunt".
