He didn't capitulate to Trump, and he isn't kissing his ass, which is more than any other country has done. He is showing leadership to the rest of the world's leaders.

I'm waiting for the moment that the rest of the world's leaders just decide to stop coddling him, and start saying what they really think about him. We're seeing little cracks, and pretty soon we will see him totally isolated from the rest of the world. They should ban both Trump AND Putin from the next Gx meeting.
