Foreign leaders know that to get narcissistic f*cking moron Donald "Rump" Trump on their side, they lay on the pomp and circumstance, complete with red carpets and big parades. They know he's very easily played in that way because of his emotional neediness and mental instability. Rump is also no champion of American values, as he showed in meetings with the Phillippines' autocrat Rodrigo Duterte:"
As journalists shouted questions about whether Mr. Trump would press Mr. Duterte on human rights, the Philippine president quickly silenced them. 'Whoa, whoa — this is not the press statement,' Mr. Duterte said. 'We are in a bilateral meeting.'Also, it should be no surprise whatsoever that Rump's pathological lying (and that of his taxpayer-paid lackeys) isn't limited to the boundaries of the U.S. Rump's spokes-propagandists put out the claim that Rump had raised Duterte's vile human rights record, a claim that was quickly denied by Duterte's own spokesman.
'You are the spies,' he told the reporters, as Philippine security personnel jostled some of them roughly. The remarks elicited a hearty laugh from Mr. Trump before the journalists were led out of the room." (emphasis added)
So much for standing for American values and human rights abroad.
