I read this several times, and it always comes out in the voice of Monty Python’s French taunter.

Could be…

Mr. Trump, what you’ve just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

Assuming that there’s someone on the White House staff who keeps track of all the trip details…he would probably approach any president thusly:

Aide: Mr. President, you’ll be visiting Yad Vashem tomorrow. It’s customary for foreign dignitaries to sign the book of remembrance, with an appropriate message.

Normal President: Right. Get one of our writers on it. A good one. Something statesmanlike…deeply moving, strive for peace, but never forget, yada yada.

Trump: Eh. I’ll think of something.

I guess if he goes to Canada or Mexico, he’ll say, “I just came from North America.”  
In other [news](https://theweek.com/speedreads/701194/all-sean-spicer-wanted-meet-pope-trump-didnt-let), Donald didn’t let Sean Spicer come along on his private audience with the Pope. That’s just mean! For a dyed in the wool, card carrying Catholic, meeting the Pope is a really big deal. And a private audience-- a once in a lifetime event.

What are the chances the anonymous White House insider has a name that rhymes with Don Ricer?

Trump calls for investigation into Manchester bombing news leaks.  
“In a statement issued amid meetings in Brussels with leaders of NATO member nations, Trump responded to British outrage over the leaks by calling them “deeply troubling” and vowing to “get to the bottom of this.”  
He added: “The leaks of sensitive information pose a grave threat to our national security…”

This is the same knucklehead who disclosed personally to the Philippine knucklehead the general location of a few of our nuclear subs.

He badmouths our NATO allies, shoves one of them out of the way for a photo op ([video here](http://www.salon.com/2017/05/25/trump-gets-a-chilly-reception-at-nato-after-telling-world-leaders-to-pay-their-fair-share/)) and more…

> Despite the public scolding from Trump, NATO leaders were perhaps even more unsettled by what Trump didn’t say. Breaking with longstanding precedent, Trump refused to endorse NATO’s Article 5 clause, the “one-for-all, all-for-one” principle that compels the U.S. to automatically come to the defense of a member state in the event of an attack. Every U.S. President since Truman has pledged support for Article 5. At a ceremony to dedicate a memorial to NATO’s resolve in the wake of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, Trump did not make that same pledge.
