vietnammer wrote:(no Trump lover for sure but....) Obama in his last address to the press mocked Trump for his lack of international experience citing sarcastically that Trump had dealt with countries like Sweden and Azerbaijian. Chortles from the assembled Democrats. Couldn't any of his advisors warn him against trivialising other countries' importance?
Think you missed the context of that comment Viet. It was "The Republican establishment is incredulous that he's their most likely nominee. They say Donald lacks the foreign policy experience to be president. But in fairness he has spent years meeting with leaders from around the world: Miss Sweden, Miss Argentina, Miss Azerbaijan.". Don't think it's a diss of the countries. Definitely just a Donald dig....No?
Thought he had quite a few good one liners. The below just a couple.
"Foreign leaders they have been looking ahead, anticipating my departure. Last week, Prince George showed up to our meeting in his bathrobe. That was a slap in the face. A clear breach of protocol."
"While in England, I did have lunch with her Majesty the Queen. Took in a performance of Shakespeare, hit the links with David Cameron. Just in case anybody is still debating if I'm black enough, I think that settles the debate."
The comedian following him, Larry Wilmore, was very hit n miss. Making quite a few very unveiled digs at the media that did't go down well. Pundits talking in the studio afterwards saying that the attack on the media was probably more his intention. Citing his Comedy Central colleagues (Stewart, Colbert, etc) ever-present intentions to pull up the mass media on what a **** job they do.
