Donald Trump called an 'arrogant bully' after he boasts about world leaders 'kissing my a**' over tariffs

WASHINGTON, DC: President Donald Trump was dubbed a "bully" and an "embarrassment" by the Internet after he boldly declared that his "reciprocal tariffs" had leaders of several countries pleading with him to reduce the levies.

Speaking at the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) annual fundraising dinner in Washington, DC, on Tuesday, April 8, the 78-year-old held no bars when he declared that world leaders are "kissing my a**" in a desperate attempt to renegotiate the tariffs, as per The Independent.

During his 90-minute address at the event, Trump went on to share his take on the economic status of the nation, just hours before his sweeping tariffs were about to kick in. 

Donald Trump claims countries are clamoring to curry his favor after tariff move

Speaking on stage, the commander-in-chief, dressed in a black tuxedo, boldly declared, "These countries are calling us up, kissing my a**. They are dying to make a deal."

He even went on to mock the leaders while disguising his voice to appear as pleading to him, "Please, Sir, make a deal. I’ll do anything. I’ll do anything, Sir."

Despite his claims, China and Canada are reportedly planning to retaliate with their reciprocal tariffs on the US.  

Elsewhere in his speech, Trump claimed that he had the "most successful 100 days in the history of this country," even though the stock market continued to spiral downward on Tuesday.

Ignoring widespread criticism from several economists and experts, the MAGA leader proclaimed that he is correct and everyone else is wrong about the dangers of the tariffs.

"I know what the hell I'm doing. I know what I'm doing, and you know what I'm doing too," Trump said. He further mentioned that his policies have now set the stage "for a monumental victory for the Republicans in the midterms."

Internet calls Donald Trump an 'arrogant bully' over his comments on other nations

Netizens were left fuming with Donald Trump's bold words about the leaders of the nations affected by his new tariff rules. Not only did many of them call him a "bully," but also said that the president "carefully avoids" doing trustworthy negotiations. 

One said, "Other countries may make a deal now. But, none of them will have any sympathy when the American empire is history," and another wrote, "The man knows how to open and lead trustful negotiations. And carefully avoids it."

"While Trump brags about world leaders 'kissing his a**,' families here are the ones feeling the squeeze—higher prices, lost jobs, and rising stress. This isn’t a game show. It’s real life. Farmers lost markets they’ll never get back. Small businesses faced surprise bills they couldn’t afford. Kids watched their parents lose work. If leadership means humiliating others while hurting your own, is that really power? Or just the kind of pride that leaves regular Americans paying the price?" a netizen asked. 

A bewildered person expressed, "😳This has to be fake, right? I don’t think a leader of a the most powerful country can be this rude and think it’s acceptable at a world stage."

Someone else pointed out, "What an embarrassment. No one is begging Trump like that. He wants to be tough guy so bad but he’s really just a pathetic wrinkly old man who most of the world hates."

"And this is who people voted for? Unreal. This is how the highest representative of the United States speaks?! Any nation with a sense of dignity shouldn’t even bother responding to him after a statement like that," noted another person.

"Trump brags that world leaders are 'kissing my a**' while the economy burns. Diplomacy? No. It’s just ego with a megaphone and a flag," a comment read. 

"This is not a president. This is a mobster," one more declared, whereas another added, "Why insult countries with a statement like that? Be a bit more diplomatic for once. Why can’t he just say that these countries are looking to renegotiate with him to attempt to reach an amicable agreement! He’s an arrogant bully with no class!"
