"So the fake news said people laughed at President Trump. They didn't laugh at me. People had a good time with me. We were doing it together. We had a good time. They respect what I've done."

Sure Donny, Sure. Keeping pretending that everyone likes you, whatever it takes to preserve those last slivers of sanity.

So, when he said :

“My administration has accomplished more than almost any administration in the history of our country”

It was a joke ?

(FYI, yes, USA, the world is laughing at you)

Sorry Cadet Bonespurs, but you were being laughed AT.

You can try to spin it every way you want, but the video isn't lying. You were up there, trying to be Mr. Big And Bad, and the rest of the people of the world laughed AT you. You were so stunned that it actually shut you up for half a second, and now you're trying to spin it.

Sorry Cadet Bonespurs, but you're just a pathetic little man, with an insecure ego, that is now lying your keister off in order to try and make yourself seem to be more than you are, the clown in the room that got laughed at.

This would be laughable if it wasn't so worrying - how far divorced from reality is this guy - and is he really mentally competent to serve in office.   By his recent actions and comments, the answer would seem to be no...

Maybe they were laughing at him, maybe they realize it and we’re laughing how also made things changed for the better since he took office compared to what they were under Obama. We don’t know what or how these people talk to each other behind closed doors, we shouldn’t just speculate as outsiders.

LOL! Nikki Haley trying to defend Dump by saying laughter is a sign of respect. She also said the media is to blame for people laughing at Dump. She can't decide if laughter at Dum is good or bad!

Nikki Haley: United Nations Laughter Not A Diss But A Sign Of Respect For Trump

It's not "fake news" and they were laughing at him. not with him. He didn't say anything that would cause others to laugh with him. How long do we have to put up with this man....

So what was the joke?

His latest conference was pretty out there.  Maybe they were laughing with him.  He is a funny guy.  Probably the funniest ever.  And the US is stronger than ever.  and the economy is just fantastic.  and all the US ' "enemies" are scared witless because he is a tough guy.

Who knows, maybe he is right?

Well, it's on video. We can watch Trump being laughed @ on the world stage as much as we want while he deludes himself otherwise.

Their really is no plausible interpretation other than that they were laughing at him.

But I am willing to let this one slide. Trump is an emotional basket case and he clearly needs to believe that they were laughing with him, so I won’t deny him that crutch for his feelings.

Watching him at the Press Conference was hilarious.

The fact that he had to use a Press Conference and try clear this up shows the mental maturity of this sorry specimen of a human being.

The thing that made people laugh was the disconnect between how little the world perceives Trump's administration to have actually accomplished, and his claim that they have accomplished more than any other administration in the history of his country. For world leaders to have been laughing 'with' Trump, it would mean he had made the claim knowing that the reality of what his administration had accomplished differed greatly enough from the claim so as for people to laugh at the disconnect. AKA having a laugh at one's self, or self-deprecating humor. However, if Trump made that statement believing that his administration really had accomplished more than any other, then his lack of understanding of the disconnect would mean that he wouldn't see the humor in his statement, and therefore the world leaders would not be laughing at him, but rather with him. The only way the term 'laughing with' could be applied would be if you take the global leaders laughing at the absurdity of his statement simultaneously with his laughing nervously at being laughed at, to mean they were 'laughing with' each other.

So either the world is laughing at Trump for not understanding the disconnect between what they see and what he said, or Trump is laughing at himself for clearly not accomplish[ing] more than almost any administration in the history of [his] country.

Personally, I'm more inclined to think the world was laughing at him, not with him, as Trump has pretty much zero history of self-deprecating humor, and a long history of claiming that his administration has accomplished more than any other. It seems much, much more plausible to me that he was making that statement in seriousness, without realizing that that the disconnect between his perception and the rest of the world would cause a laugh.

Nikki Haley trying to defend Dump by saying laughter is a sign of respect.

Really, Nimrata Randhawa? As if you, like Piyush Jindal, being embarassed about your Indian heritage wasn't enough, you now enable your 'president' and defend his blatant lies???

I think this Japanese human rights ambassador would disagree with you about laughter being a sign of respect:

The media is to blame to spreading a lot of propagated lies about the President, that’s definitely true.

She can't decide if laughter at Dum is good or bad!

It doesn’t matter, when these countries need money, Trump will always have the last laugh.

Yesterday's stand up comedy and then today's hilarious news conference trying to defend his comedy act.

Love the attempts to make Trump sound credible.

We don't know what the leaders talk about behind closed doors, so we shouldn't speculate. Never mind that I constantly speculate about anyone or anything that is against Trump. Life-long republicans being democratic lapdogs, the upper echelons of the FBI being corrupt, etc.

Niki Haley would know, she talks to these people. Never mind that she talks to other UN ambassadors and not the heads of state. Never mind that I'm completely speculating right now.

Obama made things a lot better than they were under Bush II. Obama set the country on solid footing and Trump reals the glory.

The media reporting on Truml's actions and words is propaganda. Boo hoo! Why can't the media join us out here in fantasyland where all of Trump's numerous failings are great? It's so unfair that the media reports reality!

His supporters have really gone off the deep end. Making themselves look more and more like a joke with each demonstrably false utterance.

12 ( +12 / -0 )

Maybe they were laughing at him, 

not maybe they were, when he replied with shock that he wasnt expecting that they laughed at him again since Trump rarely lets a laughing matter about himself go unless theres a insulting reply of some type.

FACT Mr Trump the UN was laughing AT you, me too for that matter , LOL

If they weren't laughing at him, he wouldn't have appeared briefly flustered or said, "I didn't expect that reaction, but that's OK."

How do you explain that statement away?

Trump thought they were laughing with him?? Now, that is funny!!

It was actually the nervous laughter of people who realize that a man with the unchecked power to destroy every one of their countries in twenty minutes is a delusional megalomaniac. 

In other words, they’re laughing to keep from crying. Like the rest of us.

only while hes POTUS, when hes out of office he wont have the money to buy friends or the protection of the Presidency to those lining up to convict him. Bill Cosby was a funny guy , until he wasnt

So, Trump was laughing at himself, too, then? I love how Trump has to tell himself what a parent usually tells an ashamed child who's been laughed at, and I love how uncomfortable and upset it makes his defenders.

bass4funk: "Maybe they were laughing at him"

No maybe unless you decide to hit mute, my friend. They were laughing, my friend, and not WITH him, but at him, and at how ridiculous and wrong his statements were. You know it, as hard as you try to deny it.

8 ( +9 / -1 )

I think Trump supporters would be better advised arguing in favour of his policies rather than defending the man himself. Trump is a ridiculous figure.

It isn’t just biased democrats laughing at him or comedians using material which basically writes itself.

Representatives from other countries openly laughed at him during his speech at the UN.

Can you imagine what they think or say about him in private?

10 ( +10 / -0 )

It’s just so strange to watch Trump fans construct an alternate reality to protect their mental image of Trump. You can almost hear them sigh when they talk as they endure the humiliation. And Trump has no idea they even exist.

9 ( +9 / -0 )

I think they were laughing at him. However I have to hand it to Trump; he did have a good comeback and at that one they probably laughed with him.

Regardless I think there is no doubt they laughed at him the first time.

This was not the right venue to give a speech the way he did as it is not a campaign rally. If he wanted to say the economy is doing well then that is fine but I do not think he needs to take credit for it and make such statements in that venue.

One of the major reasons I think he should not hold that office is his inability to control his communication (spoken, Twitter, etc.)...

7 ( +8 / -1 )

I watched the speech and it was clear they took what he said as a joke and acted accordingly. He mentioned that his administration was the most productive one in the history of the nation. Normally that kind of hyperbole is taken as a joke. When Trump says things like that, he's usually serious.

Day 2 of "they were laughing him" still? Followed by Stormy's sexcapades, followed by another day of "Trump is sooo stupid" trivia so the losers can snicker at the winner. Meanwhile Trump continues to transform the USA is serious ways while he distracts the sheep with tweets, schoolyard giggles and other trivia. Talk about not getting it.... You guys actually make him look smarter.

It's way past time the Trump supporters realize what an infantile jackass this guy is. The UN was laughing, unequivocally at you, not with you. Gees was that hilarious...his stupid grinned reaction to the laughter...it caused further and more uproarious laughter, when it was obvious the idiot thought it was adoration, instead of ridicule. How stupid can you be, Donny?

The ideology that patriotism is vastly more important than globalism is so short sighted, he has no idea the reasoning behind why diplomacy and globalization is important, and obviously, neither do his supporters. Globalization and international institutions like the UN being the opposite of patriotism is a straw man argument. The intent of international institutions is to better relations for the entire world and help each country within a framework of world problems such as global warming, destabilizing conflicts and human rights standards as intended missions. It has little to nothing to do with a nationalistic viewpoint that Trump thinks is being undermined by the UN. The UN isn't perfect, and truly there are areas, such as int'l criminal court rulings that need improvement, but it is nowhere to be found where Trump has any plan to implement positive change(obviously, he can't do it, because he never has a thought out plan based on critical thinking, he's incapable of clarity of thought), rather, he believes there is reduced US sovereignty because countries work together to care for the human race. That's just his 5 year old mind of bigotry, racism, and ignorance incapable of processing the importance of America's role in world affairs.

The US was respected and believed as the true leader of the world because she took world wide issues seriously, and believed in helping all of mankind, with good intent. Nowhere is this more true than with Obama, as president. Now, with a weakling president who hides his head in the sand to avoid factual issues such as global warming, and fears such things as global competition in favor of tariffs and protectionism, the US is what it is, a laughingstock, when its president thinks he is making a great speech based on his campaign obsessed style to a crowd of diplomats and world leaders who don't give a crap about his rhetoric, and they laugh at his ridiculous immaturity and stupidity, as Trump makes a total fool of himself, while he slowly erodes the respect gained by the US of being a world leader, into the lying mush of an idiot.

If you don't realize when America was the leader of the world, perhaps you don't really believe America was ever great, but the facts are that human rights and care for the basic needs of the world was very much a priority and a major reason for US greatness was because America was not a nationalistic, inward looking nation. Helping the world is looked upon as something leaders do, and America's intent was good till the Trump administration. It was never perfect, it can't be for everyone. But, the weasels cringe and hide behind silly narrative and cherry pick to support their narratives.

Even if we could get them to listen, they don't have the intellectual capacity to understand. This is evidenced by them believing that everyone at the UN was laughing with Trump.

Patently false.

Matter of opinion - not a true/false question.

 America's intent was good till the Trump administration.

Sorry, but I think you are just repeating the myth that is drummed into American heads from childhood to help keep the population compliant. It is not a widely held belief outside of the US. There is plenty of evidence to show that US motives have been less than pure, and that even when they were pure, they were wrong and destructive. Smaller countries are almost always pawns in some greater game the US is playing.

American was great idea. Too bad they screwed it up.

How so? You think he lies more than previous presidents have? He seems to utter a lot of small boastful lies that nobody takes seriously. That's his manner of speaking. Do you prefer the more polished presidents who lie about the really important things?

And what is this constant self deception you speak of? I see a lot of self-deception, more on the left than on the right in my opinion. Either way, you seem to be assigning traits to millions of Trump supporters based on your own observation and confirmation fallacy. Some supporters may believe they were not laughing at him. It's not an irrational way to view it. Like when your funny uncle comes home with his "I almost caught a fish the size of Kansas" story. It's amusing. Others might be saying he wasn't being laughed at because they don't want to give even an inch to anti-Trumpers. This sort of behavior is true on both sides.

"No one laughs at Donald Trump."

Not true. Those with TDS ( Trump Derangement Syndrome ) do.

The laughing was not negative the way most of the media portrayed it, it was because Trump was talking straight and honest without a script or prompter. People can't believe the way Trump speaks - no BS.

-11 ( +2 / -13 )

Sadly the entire article needs clarification.

Much of what occurred depends on the translator and what and how Trumps words were translated as well as the listeners prior exposure to Trump, his policies and their biases. The speech occurred soon after all of the tariffs were placed after leaving renouncing past trade agreements. Some benefited and some did not. So the reaction may have been a snicker or outright ridicule or a smile of satisfaction.

But as trump says it really does not matter as much as the contents of what he had said.

-8 ( +2 / -10 )

Donald J. Trump is truly a weak man's idea of a strong man, a poor man's idea of a rich man, a stupid man's idea of a smart man, and a coward's idea of a brave man.

Only an insecure idiot would try to use a UN speech as a campaign rally. Only the Emperor of Insecure Idiots would defend doing so at a press conference later.

Bass: "maybe they realize it and we’re laughing how also made things changed for the better since he took office compared to what they were under Obama."

Serrano: "The laughing was not negative the way most of the media portrayed it, it was because Trump was talking straight and honest without a script or prompter. People can't believe the way Trump speaks - no BS."

Texas: "They were not laughing at him, there was a cheer, and he didn't expect that, his reaction made people laugh."

So three options here:  

They were laughing because things are so much better now than under Obama, they were laughing because they respect him and his toughness, or they were actually cheering, not laughing.

They were laughing because things are so much better now than under Obama, 

Because back then they had someone weak that they could pushover because they new he was passive about everything, like....oh, Crimea.

they were laughing because they respect him

Yes, compared to the appeasement and how he went on an apology tour throughout the Middle East and it still didn't keep our ambassador from being murdered.

and his toughness, or they were actually cheering, not laughing.

Some were and some maybe not, but when it comes to the almighty USD, they are all like seals waiting and bellowing for a meal.

Trump: Heads of state 'were laughing with me,' not at me - Headline

They were probably thinking amused what a difference from those eight long years of a farce of a community organizer and glib teleprompter reader leading from behind.

But how prescient of President Trump! He'd talking about having a good laugh with the many successful heads of state who made their own countries great again, in his final address in September 2024, just before he hands the presidency over to President Mike Pence or President Nikki Haley.

Eat your hearts out in the gutter libs!

bass4funk: "Because back then they had someone weak that they could pushover..."

Sorry, bud... no one is weaker than Trump. Both Putin and Kim have him eating out of their hands and kissing their butts, and Xi, too, although Trump is now sad... so sad, about Xi's bad words about him. :( He's also the weakest minded president in US history. Maybe that's an accomplishment!

because they new he was passive about everything, like....oh, Crimea.

Trump certainly wasn't passive though, took all his might to grab his ankles when he met Vlad.

Yes, compared to the appeasement and how he went on an apology tour throughout the Middle East and it still didn't keep our ambassador from being murdered.

Some people aren't happy unless their army is getting bogged down & slaughtered somewhere every generation.

They were laughing because they, like everyone else, recognize a blowhard when they see one.

A loser with 63 and counting accomplishes, that's something for Trump to chuckle about

And here I was all these years thinking "accomplish" was a verb.

Trump is making enemies off many countries - why would they laugh with him while he's making enemies out of them

They were laughing at you, at the right wing voter, at anyone who supports your lunatic fringe brain

It makes all of our countries look even better than ever

Yup! He's accomplished more than a president who freed slaves and abolished slavery, a president who saw the end of WWII, and even a president who helped create the nation to begin with! Sure has done more than them, hasn't he? Hahaha... 

What? I’m sorry...huh? Lol

Dude, you are so butt-hurt that Trump got laughed at.

I’m not hurt, I’m saying you don’t know what these leaders say or the relationships they have with Trump, if you can, then you need to talk to Charles Xavier.

It's quite funny. But maybe you meant for us to laugh at your comments? We're laughing with you... at yourself?

That’s ok, I laugh at liberals every single day.

How sad that Trump thinks he is right all the time. He is so up himself that he can't imagine anyone would laugh at him. The words 'utter loser' don't even come close to describing him.

Sorry, bud... no one is weaker than Trump.

63 accomplishments and counting, that’s a very good weak President

Both Putin and Kim have him eating out of their hands and kissing their butts,

And yet, Trump’s heavy hitting sanctions have crippled both countries to the worst levels and the great thing is, Trump can and is hitting their pockets mercilessly.

and Xi, too, although Trump is now sad... so sad,

Sad, no, China is stunned that he doesn’t buckle like the other Presidents and have taken him more seriously. China respects strength not weakness, his not President 44

about Xi's bad words about him. :( He's also the weakest minded president in US history. Maybe that's an accomplishment!

I’m sure Trump has his personal options about him as well. Lol

Trump was laughed AT, because even with a Republican Congress, the only piece of legislation that has been placed on his desk to be signed into law was the tax cuts for the rich bill. He has no accomplishments.

How many times did you tell us other world leaders' opinions of Obama over the years? Hundreds?

Have some self respect and stop posting on this thread. You don't have to embarrass yourself like this.

They didn’t respect him that’s for sure. If they did Crimea and our ambassador would still be alive.

Embarrass myself?? Why? Lol

Quite the opposite.

I’m fine giving you a handicap in the conversation, so let’s settle on this:

Bass is allowed to give other leaders’ opinions of Obama’s, but we are not allowed to do the same for Trump unless we are mind readers or have listened in to their private conversations.

Noted for the record.

Gads, is this narcisstic jerk that stupid or what? He just addresses the UN with a most egotistical spiel and rant and he can't even see that the whole UN is laughing at him. He is such a pathetic joke, he is an embarrassment to the USA and his ego is too big for him to even see it! Unbelievable.

Whether people are laughing at you or with you, they were laughing! That is the point. They did not applaud. They LAUGHED!

Trump is the laughing stock of the world. His Russian handelers call him “The useful idiot” and he proves them right every. single. day.
