Americans Furious After Trump Taunts Biden for His Seat at Queen’s Funeral, ‘Such a Pathetic Narcissist!’

Okay, this is just so funny.

Donald Trump spent four years telling us that every world leader assured him that the United States is so respected and strong now. Leaders would tell him that he was so much smarter than Obama and surprisingly more handsome and strong in person than on television. Trump said that he heard this stuff all the time.

It is probably true, except he would not hear it from leaders that didn’t need or want anything from Trump, like Macron, Merkel, and Trudeau. But other leaders, the type that wanted to steal the U.S. blind, and did, probably did tell Trump that he was godlike in their eyes. Trump would never know, nor even care, that it was because every world leader had intelligence that said flattery would get them everything they wanted. So they surely did flatter him.

But, you might have noticed, North Korea still has its nuclear program, Saudi Arabia is certainly stronger than it was when Trump took office, and China is definitely stronger, same with India. And Russia? Trump still cannot say a cross word about Putin.

Now Trump wants the world to know that Biden was shoved to the back of the Queen’s funeral because the U.S. isn’t respected anymore, and Trump would’ve been sitting up front:

This is what’s happened to America in just two short years. No respect! However, a good time for our President to get to know the leaders of certain Third World countries. If I were president, they wouldn’t have sat me back there—and our Country would be much different than it is right now!

This is just precious. Donald Trump thinks that he would be sitting in front of the British Parliament, royalty from all over Europe, and leadership from actual Commonwealth countries… he really has no clue at all. It would never once occur to Trump that the U.S. is stronger with a leader who doesn’t feel the need to sit up front, knows that sitting up front actually doesn’t mean “strength,” and that demonstrating American sensitivity to not being the center of attention increases the world’s respect. Maybe Trump would’ve done this at the funeral:

That’s actually not strength. Strength is knowing who you are and extending a hand to someone else to move forward.

Sigh. Pathetic. Twitter let him know:
