🇨🇳🇺🇸 Flustered Trump vs. stoic Xi: Who really runs the room?

Donald Trump oozed nervousness and buffoonish eagerness during the first moments of his high-stakes meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping in South Korea.

Shifting from foot to foot, leaning in deferentially, tilting his head for eye contact, and flashing a toothy grin that screamed “please like me,” Trump radiated nervous eagerness.

💬 As the handshake dragged on, Don babbled pleasantries: “He’s a tough negotiator… We’re going to have a very successful meeting.”

Meanwhile, Xi maintained a firm grip, subtly pulled back, and sported a faintly pained expression—the alpha in the room?

At the negotiating table, Trump continued to lay it on thick:

👉 “The very, very distinguished and respected President of China”

👉 “President Xi is a great leader of a great country"

👉 “A great friend of mine”
