We’ve seen this look before from world leaders as they have been trapped in the room with Trump.
The unstable president is losing it. He is angry and out of control. There is no clear defense or message from the White House on impeachment. Trump is clearly still acting as his own communications team. Congressional Republicans have been sidelined and left to watch as Trump is representing himself in the court of public opinion, and he is clearly losing the battle on impeachment.
President Niinistö’s expression speaks for the world as Trump is coming unglued over impeachment.
