Trump's phone calls with foreign leaders are so unhinged that US officials think the president is 'delusional' and a national security threat
A CNN report on Monday painted a scathing portrait of President Donald Trump's conduct on the world stage, particularly as it relates to his conversations with foreign leaders.
Trump's behavior was so unusual and erratic that it convinced several senior administration officials that the president was "delusional," according to the report. Overall, these sources painted a scathing portrait of a US president who bullies and belittles allies while fawning over autocratic leaders. The White House did not respond to a request for comment from CNN.
Some of the harshest depictions of Trump's lack of preparedness on critical issues stem from his conversations with Russian President Vladimir Putin. Another administration official told CNN that Putin "just outplays" Trump. Another source said that sometimes their conversations resemble that of "two guys in a steam bath."
