The 29 most eye-popping lines from Donald Trump's press gaggle in Vietnam

Analysis by Chris Cillizza, CNN Editor-at-large

(CNN)Flying between Da Nang and Hanoi, Vietnam, on Saturday, President Donald Trump decided to talk to the press corps. And man did he talk.

.................................


1. "Prime Minister Abe came up to me just at the end and he said that since you left South Korea and Japan then those two countries are now getting along much much better."


Trump spent two days in Japan and a day-and-a-half in South Korea. And yet, he somehow improved relations between the two countries in those 60 hours. So we're off to a good start!




.........................


17. "China likes me. China likes me."



They like me. They really like me.





18. "It's the biggest state entrance and the biggest state dinner they've ever had. By far."



Trump is talking about his state dinner in China. And, yes, he is totally obsessed with everything he is involved with being the biggest and the best. Many people are already saying this press gaggle is among the best ever, in fact.





19. "We're actually getting very good marks having to do with foreign affairs. There's nobody that I can think of that I don't have a very good relationship with."


Good marks. Great relationships. The best. Believe me...............

The first dynasty of China, the Xia dynasty, dates back to 2070 BC.
And Trump had the biggest welcome and state dinner ever in China.
