1. He sounds like a schoolgirl waiting for her crush to call her back.

[Mrs. Overall]

5. Exactly!

[NCjack]

2. Looks like Xi promised the Orange Fool a Trump Tower deal.

He is the worst president, ever.

I don't like presidents that are captured by dictators.

[lagomorph777]

13. Odd that he was aware he sounded like a naive fool.

And yet he persisted.

[MBS]

25. "I don't like presidents that are captured by dictators."

PERFECT!!!
I will steal this.

[NCjack]

26. I kinda stole it from the Orange Menace. nt

[Paladin]

3. He's not decent enough to deserve a "naive" label.

He's a selfish, brain-dead, shit-for-brains sub-human. Might as well be accurate......

[NewJeffCT]

4. He believed everything Kim Jong Un

told him and had his minions in Congress nominate him for a Nobel Peace Prize because of it. How did that turn out?

[packman]

6. His gut was in high intellect mode that day

with A big Mac and Cheetos being churned in his colon, So, yah, he's probably right.

[SergeStorms]

7. In other words...

nothing. Why waste what little energy you have left to tweet that nonsense, Little Donnie?

He must be very bored today. Nothing going on but a funeral for a dead guy who used to be president.

[lagomorph777]

14. He prefers the kind of funeral where you just toss somebody in the East River.

With concrete overshoes.

[SergeStorms]

23. Or orders others to do it...

like his good friend Mohammed bin Salman.

[Cicada]

8. Of course who knows what Xi really said

[soryang]

31. Right

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

9. Putin was also very strong in his denial of interference in 2016 elections.

And Crown Prince MbS was very strong in his denial of involvement in the death of a journalist.

Donald Trump seems very impressed by strong denials. Perhaps Obama should have been very strong in his denial of his birth in Kenya.

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

10. So basically, this asshole is trying to strong arm the Chinese by making shit

up. He can then turn around and call them liars who didn't "keep their word". Even though they probably offered jack shit.

[ProfessorGAC]

11. Too Late

Every utterance makes him sound naive. And undereducated, and pompous, and oblivious. . . .

[Javaman]

12. a liar believing a liar.

some truly weird shit.

[niyad]

15. you don't sound naive, tangerine traitor, you sound like an ignorant asshole.

[Nay]

16. My late FIL, a good salesman, used to say that the easiest person to sell to was a

superb salesman -- because they believed their own bullshit.

[Nitram]

17. Something that has occurreed to me is that Xi knows he can promise anything to Trump and then

deny it later. No one beileves Trump anymore. No one. One of the dangers of a president who constantly lies.

[Grasswire2]

19. that's also the danger of these private meetings

Putin, Kim too...

How he doesn't see that risk is quite frightening, actually.

[Nitram]

20. My take is that Trump doesn't care. His people believe any old story he tells, so he tells

a lot of them. His popularity is based on his self-glorifying claims, not on real accomplishments.

[Grasswire2]

18. hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha...

hahahahahahahahahahahahah!

Wouldn't you love to play poker with this schmuck?

[Mr.Bill]

21. Actually, Mr. Trump,

one of the downsides of being a pathological liar is that people don't feel like they need to be truthful with you.

[Power 2 the People]

22. We might as well have a monkey attend international meetings

Such an embarrassment.

[Vinca]

24. You could sell Trump the Eiffel Tower . . . but, of course, he wouldn't pay for it.

World leaders have his number. Flatter the fool to get what you want, then carry on as usual.

[Eyeball_Kid]

27. Hey Trumpy! I've got a novel idea...

of which you’ve never thought! Here it comes!

Watch what they DO. Don’t listen to what they say.

But Trumpy NEVER takes advice from anyone. He’s got the best brain, and you know, he’s REALLY smart.

[John Fante]

28. Can I call you brainless sack of shit instead?

[Maxheader]

29. Stumpy is too stupid to be naive...

That is all...

[truthisfreedom]

30. Maybe he could record important meetings?
