World Leaders Think Trump Is a ‘Laughing Fool’

· Leave a Comment

John Bolton noted that Donald Trump has long touted what he says are strong relationships with high profile leaders on the world stage, but they actually think he’s a “laughing fool,” Politico reports.

Said Bolton: “I have been in those rooms with him when he met with those leaders, I believe they think he’s a laughing fool. And the idea that somehow his presence in office would have deterred Putin is flatly wrong.”

Same Election. Different Stories.

Election Day brings a flood of political news — and which sources you follow can shape the story you see.

That's why I appreciate what Ground News does. It shows how the same story is covered across the political spectrum — and highlights important stories that one side may be ignoring entirely.

And when the votes are counted and everyone starts debating what they mean, it's a useful way to get a broader view.
