I just played a round of Golf with Alexander Stubb, President of Finland. He is a very good player, and we won the Men’s Member-Guest Golf Tournament at Trump International Golf Club in Palm Beach County, with the Legendary Gary Player, Senator Lindsey Graham, and former Congressman and highly successful Television Host, Trey Gowdy.

“President Stubb and I look forward to strengthening the partnership between the United States and Finland, and that includes the purchase and development of a large number of badly needed Icebreakers for the U.S., delivering Peace and International Security for our Countries, and the World.

“President Stubb told me, in the most powerful of words, that the United States is STRONG, and BACK, AGAIN. I AGREE!” Trump wrote.

    lol

    If you watch any interviews with Stubb, where he is asked about Trump, he gives answers that would please Trump.

    But if you watch him talk about anything else, you can tell Stubb is way too smart to consider Trump anything other than a bumbling fool. It’s incredible that he’s able to clue people in, while even in person the idiot himself doesn’t realize.

    He’s trying to walk the line of pleasing Trumps ego, while getting real work done.

    He’s literally just been saying stuff along the line “here’s what president Trump needs to do (insert sane policy), but he’s so smart he doesn’t need me telling him that”.

    And apparently it works.

        Definitely, Stubb being a narcissist himself. And a known liar. And a confessed school bully.

        But that’s no surprise, his political party openly works with Finnish far-right populists.
