Summary

Despite claiming countries are “dying to make a deal,” Trump has left multiple world leaders waiting for tariff talks, Politico reported.

Officials from the Philippines and the U.K. said requests for meetings have gone unanswered, while others described Trump aides as unresponsive.

Trump mocked foreign leaders during a GOP fundraiser, impersonating them pleading for deals.

Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt insisted phones are “ringing off the hook,” but failed to explain the communication gap, fueling criticism over the administration’s diplomatic failures amid escalating global trade tensions.

    He’s embarrassed. His tail is between his legs and he can’t face them.

    His people are probably scrambling to spin this as a win for tariffs. They got nothin’. He’s hiding.

      He’s not embarrassed. It’s not possible. He’s just pumping and dumping the global economy along with his friends and doesn’t give a fuck what happens or what anyone thinks of it.
