I came across this article on my newsfeed this morning, and I confess, I find it just a little too unbelievable.

Fake news — it has to be — almost certainly enhanced with AI.

No one on the planet would be so asinine and idiotic as to make a claim like this.

I think someone is poking fun…at whom, I’m not sure.

DJT has made some utterly outrageous comments and claims in the past, but I think there must be a lot of his detractors jumping on the ‘Get Trump’ bandwagon, and this latest accusation is just a little too unbelievable.

We all make mistakes from time to time, and Donald has made some ‘pearlers’. This, however, has to be a case of putting words into his mouth.

There is no way a world-leading statesman could be so crass as to dismiss other national leaders and their countries in such an insensitive manner.

If, however, he did claim to be ‘The World’s Leader’, as opposed to ‘A World (class) Leader’, perhaps ‘the world’ might look a bit like this;

It has to be a joke, albeit in rather bad taste.

The problem here is that if Mr Putin gets his way, most of what has been labelled ‘America’ on this map would be labelled ‘Russia’!

As for China…

A true sleeping giant will, eventually, stir and wake up.

And China is now awake…has been for some while now.
