Donald Trump blasts Malcolm Turnbull
The Washington Post has reported – citing US officials briefed on the phone call – that Mr Trump told Mr Turnbull the agreement he struck with the Obama administration was “the worst deal ever”, and that by agreeing to it, Mt Trump was “going to get killed” politically.
Mr Trump also allegedly accused Mr Turnbull and Australia of seeking to send “the next Boston bombers” to the US in the deal, which allows for the US to take a reported 1250 refugees from Nauru and Manus Island.
Sources also reportedly told The Washington Post the conversation that was meant to last an hour was ended abruptly after 25 minutes by Mr Trump.
Mr Trump also told Mr Turnbull he has spoken to four other world leaders during that day and that “this was the worst call by far”, according to the report.
In fairness could you spend an hour on the phone with PM big Mal?
Be a hard gig to be honest.
True. However, Mal could talk non-stop for an hour, absolutely no sweat. Trump probably got sick of not getting a word in, and cut and ran.
