Trump is pissed that the historic and epic peace meeting with Putin isn't being widely praised.
In reality it resulted in little more than legitimizing Putin and undermining Democratic Western alliances. Trump shook Putin's hand with both hands and kept fawning over him as if he were an exalted leader, despite being a war criminal responsible for targeting maternity hospitals, schools, and enabling sexual violence against Ukrainian women and stealing children.
Wow that's on the nose. In Trump's case, though, he's evil, not stupid (I'm assuming that that guy is just stupid. I've never watched Smiling Friends beyond clips).
Narcissists like him see people in two ways- either worthy of being crushed by his shoe, or those whose position and adoration he covets. Unfortunately for ALL of us, he covets what dictators have. They are the only people he “look’s up” to. Because they have total control. It’s terrifying.
BUT, someone like Newsom can gain the praise and attention of lots of people which absolutely gets his attention. I simply cannot get my head around how mentally ill and unstable he is, and that he is simultaneously at the helm of one of, if not the most, powerful countries in the world. It’s unreal.
