President Donald Trump doubts that South Bend, Ind., Mayor Pete Buttigieg could represent the United States with world leaders such as Chinese President Xi Jinping.
The 2020 presidential candidate’s response to that: a Chinese proverb.
During a rally in Panama City, Fla., Wednesday Trump sarcastically joked that Buttigieg would do «great» in representing the United States with foreign leaders.
«He’s got a great chance, doesn’t he? He’ll be great,» Trump said of the 37-year-old. «He’ll be great representing us against President Xi of China. That’ll be great.
«I want to be in that room, I wanna watch that one,» Trump quipped.
