Trump laughed at at the UN when he says his admin has accomplished more than any admin in history

Trump says to UNGA, "In less than two years, my administration has accomplished more than almost any administration in the history of our country." There's a little laughter. Trump says "so true" and there's even more laughter. (via Fox)

A lot of these countries need to keep in the good graces of the US regardless of leadership.

wars and pull out of international agreements, and that is politicallly wise of us

We will see, but Reagan and Bush almost brought everything down with their economic policies of trickle down and deregulations, and Mr. Trump is doing all that on steroids, so maybe it will work this time.

They say the thrid time is a charm

I can see him doing something similar if the leader of a country walked out on a speech.

It's probably shaking him to the core not to slip into electoral college mode and attack Hillary.

World leaders humor Trump, but none of them respect him. There's nothing to respect.
