Donald Trump Hijacked a Question for the Finnish President to Deliver an Angry Rant and the Finnish President Was Not Having It

Donald Trump Hijacked a Question for the Finnish President to Deliver an Angry Rant and the Finnish President Was Not Having It
CNBC

He needs to calm down.

Ever since Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi announced the House of Representatives would proceed with an impeachment inquiry into President Donald Trump, the POTUS has used every opportunity to plead his case with the public.

Including interrupting and hijacking the questions for Finnish President Sauli Niinistö during a joint news conference.


Earlier in the question and answer session with the press, President Niinistö can be heard laughing at President Trump's avoidance of a question from Reuters Jeff Mason, telling him to not be rude and ask the Finnish President a question.

However when Mason does ask President Niinistö a question...

...Trump interrupts and decides to answer.

Although Finnish President Niinistö tells Trump that Mason's question was intended for him.

Their meeting earlier in the day did not fare much better. As detailed before, President Trump has issues with personal space and putting his hands on other world leaders.

Niinistö appears to dislike this particular habit of Trump's.

At the news conference, President Niinistö got his chance to answer Mason's question just before President Trump launched into another rant that culminated in him abruptly ending the joint press conference, leaving the Finnish President behind. Niinistö pauses after leaving the dais, then eventually follows Trump out.

The entire episode was not the POTUS' finest hour in foreign relations and international diplomacy.

With each passing day, the President seems more and more desperate. Who knows what tomorrow will bring.

Kari Lake Slammed After Warning Parents Not To Send Their Kids To College After Charlie Kirk Murder

Speaking during a memorial service for far-right activist Charlie Kirk at the Kennedy Center, failed Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake—now the Trump administration's Senior Advisor for the U.S. Agency for Global Media—called U.S. colleges “indoctrination camps” and urged parents not to send their children.

Lake ignored the fact that Kirk was killed while speaking at a college, in this case Utah Valley University (UVU), the largest university by enrollment in Utah.

Vance Claims Kirk Never Insulted Black Women's 'Brain Processing Power'—And Here Come The Receipts

Vice President JD Vance served as host of the late far-right activist Charlie Kirk's podcast this week and was called out after claiming Kirk "never uttered" words about the "brain processing power" of Black women—even though Kirk said as much in 2023.

Vance made the claim after Washington Post columnist Karen Attiah—a Black woman—said she was dismissed from the paper following social media posts on gun control and race after Kirk’s assassination.

Trump Swiftly Fact-Checked After Making Bonkers Claim About How Many Americans Died From Drugs Last Year

President Donald Trump was criticized after attempting to justify the bombing of a suspected Venezuelan drug boat by asserting that 300 million people died from drugs last year.

Speaking to reporters on Sunday, Trump was asked about the order he gave earlier this month to destroy a boat he suspected of transporting drugs off the coast of Venezuela, rather than simply intercepting it. All 11 people on board the boat were killed.
