    now will this meeting be an ambush like Zelensky/Ramaphosa or a weird lovefest like with Mamdani

  2. Because he is extraordinarily susceptible to flattery and every world leader on the planet knows that by now, they all know how to work him

  3. I’ve always said this, that despite his bravado when he’s surrounded by his sycophants, when he actually faces these people, he’s a total pussy. He can only talk shit when they aren’t around. 

    Remember when he brought Zelensky over to berate him on TV? He needed his entire group of lackeys around him to get the courage to do it, and even then, he needed JD to back him up with the attacks. He could barely look at Zelensky. 

    Given that talking shit on social media is when he’s at his most chirpy, he’s literally a keyboard warrior.
