Trump shoves world leader, looks smug
May 26^th, 2017 at 10:30pm

Further proof this man is unfit for the presidency, Trump shoves a world leader out of his way just so he can get in the front of the group. Then proceedes to smugly adjust his jacket.

This follows the rather awkward handshake with President Macron of France.

Trump's knuckles can be seen turning white and he tries twice to release the handshake.

Later Macron appears to avoid Trump to embrace German Chancellor Merkel. He then shakes the hands of other NATO leaders before reaching Trump, who gives him a vigorous pumping handshake.

You can almost see Trump's bruised ego.

He's too stupid for one, and two the GOP will rid themselves of him if he continues to tear the party apart.

The problem is, as always, Trump's supporters see what they want to see.

They don't see Trump being disrespectful to other world leaders for nothing but stroking his ego. They don't see how outraged they would be if another world leader shoved Trump out the way so they were front and centre.

They see Trump putting those NATO cheapskates in their place. They're applauding him for showing them who's boss.

But we've seen how his supporters go ballistic when Trump is criticised, can you imagine the outrage if that was done to him, or the myrad of other actions hes taken against other world leaders were done to him?

It still amazed me how love stuck to complete incompetent biased devotion his supporters are.

Let's be fair. Mr Trump was only trying to get him out of the way so that he could get in front of the camera. It's not easy having to keep your celebrity profile going 24/7, you know. Pictures, Twitter, correcting his staff's endless spelling mistakes, it never ends.

No wonder Mr Trump said he'll have to get back to the G7 with his policy details.

There's no "probably" about it.

Ask everyone he's ever dealt with, and every bank he's ever borrowed money from.

For me the days when pollies got voted in because of their etiquette, ability to spend huge amounts of our money, happiness to invite the rapist scum of the earth here, ability to introduce hundreds of new restrictive laws and false promises has passed decades ago.

The pollies of the past 15 years have cruelled us, at our expense.
they have made a bleak future for our children and their children.

Politeness has done this.

Most of the pollies of the past 15 years are still in parliament, Sprint.

And Our Pauline is a throwback to the 1990s.

Trump is a new breed of politician who has used his celebrity to get into office for his own interests. Australia had our own version in Clive Palmer.

While not common around the world - big business prefers to have others in the public eye - these sorts of politicians don't tend to last. Berlisconi in Italy was one exception.

Trump won't last. His lack of politeness - and his naked self interest - will do him in.
