Trump also adds, “He’s my friend. We’ve had a great relationship right from the beginning.”
However, Macron later stated, “My handshake with him, it wasn’t innocent. One must show that you won’t make small concessions, even symbolic ones, but also not over-publicize things, either,” Macron said, adding that it was “a moment of truth.”

One more, quite accurate
MERKEL: When I say "tariffs are bad" and press down on your foot, you smile and nod.
TRUMP: Check!
MERKEL: (Stepping on Trump's foot) Tariffs are a tax on consumers, and will hurt all economies.
TRUMP: (Stares blankly, then turns and whispers to Abe) I think she's talking to you. pic.twitter.com/z6l1phwYa2— Josh Jordan (@NumbersMuncher) June 9, 2018
