a sexist would say!

Pissing off and embarrassing international political allies?

There are days that I think Trump goes mentally rogue

Excerpt:
Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni just went full drama queen on Donald Trump, claiming his statements about her were “completely fabricated” and that she’s “frankly appalled” by how he treats allies.
She went on to lecture the President of the United States, saying it’s a pity he doesn’t show the same determination toward the “enemies of the West” and reminding everyone that “Italy and I never beg.”
Video:

It was a strong, fiery performance — until the receipts started dropping.


I still remember when Italy refused direct involvement against Iran and blocked combat-linked use of Sigonella. So the real question is whether “ally” means shared risk, or just shared protection when America pays the bill.

Also the video from G7 shows her real face!

Trump-Meloni spat grows over claim Italian PM 'begged' for photo: 'astonished'
Antonio Tajani cancelled his scheduled trip to the US, calling Trump's words 'serious and offensive' to all of Italy

A simmering rift between President Donald Trump and Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni burst into the open Friday after the G7 summit, exposing growing tensions between two leaders whose close political alliance had long positioned Meloni among Trump's closest allies on the world stage.

"Donald Trump's statements are completely made up. I am frankly astonished. I don't ‌know why ⁠the president of the United States behaves like this towards his allies: it is not the first time, moreover," Meloni said Friday, according to Reuters.

Trump told an Italian news outlet that Meloni "begged" him to take a photo with her during the G7 earlier this week, which sparked strong rebuke from the prime minister and Italian diplomats. Before the recent strain over Iran, Meloni was widely viewed as one of Trump's strongest allies on the world stage, even attending his 2025 presidential inauguration as the only European leader present.

"She wanted a picture with me so ​badly. I wouldn't have taken it, but I felt sorry for her," Trump said to La7 TV channel. "She's probably happy I talked to her. I didn't have to talk to her."

Meloni fired back: "I can only say it is disappointing that he does not show the same determination with the enemies of the West and of the United States, whose leaders he instead treats with far greater indulgence."

"There is one thing he should remember: neither I nor Italy ever beg," she added.

Representatives from the prime minister’s office told Fox News Digital they have no comment at the moment. Fox News Digital also reached out to the White House.

It plays better in Italy.

Apalled?  I'd be disappointed if our malignantly narcissistic psychopathic fablist Tangerine Mussolini-wannabe President didn't spin a ficticious yarn.  He can't help himself.  It's who he is and what he does.  That's his nature.

And to think, the Dems couldn't muster anyone better than Joe Biden or Kamala Harris to run for President in 2024.  Nancy Pelosi chose poorly.

Funny, but unnecessary, since she is (was?) a conservative ally.

This level of national embarassment might topple her at her next election.  Is that 4D chess?

She's being an idiot to try to placate the TDSers in her own government!  What is she thinking?  Yes, I think she's put herself at risk, for no good reason!

Who is this "conservative ally" of whom you speak @catfish1957 ?

In March, Meloni refused US planes landing rights at the Signorella base (a US naval air installation) because they were carrying weapons headed for Iran.

In Italian circles she is leader of their conservative party?  "i.e European Conservatives and Reformists Party"

Can't you differentiate a specific action vs. a political idelology

No doubt, but does DJT need to stroke the fire?

You're still defending Meloni?  Stop embarrassing yourself.
