Feel free to explain how he has "insulted dozens of countries and leaders".  I'm sure your driving point here is around immigration.  I guess by enforcing our laws and tightening up security at our borders, that's considered an insult?  

Other than a few staunch liberal leaders around the world who were never going to warm up to Trump, it seems to me that most world leaders have been more than capable of separating rhetoric from action.  You should really consider giving that a try.

He claimed China was "raping our country" and that climate change was a hoax started by the Chinese to make American trade non-competitive. 
Today he got a 250 billion dollar deal that lowered our trade deficit by 50% with them.  So he made the trade deals with them more competitive. Well he pulled out of the climate pact which taxed americans for adding co2 to the atmosphere but not China.


He accepted a phone call from Taiwan and overturned decades of diplomatic protocal, angering the chinese. Must not been to big of a deal because they let him in the forbidden palace and signed a yuge deal

He hung up on the president of Australia when he was asked about keeping an agreement we had already made with them before he was elected.  didn't want to keep the agreement possibly because he thought it was bad

He insulted the city of Paris after the terrorists attacks. due to france having a lax immigration policy that directly led to such attacks

He declined to shake Angela Merkels hand at a joint press conference, like a 2 year old having a temper tantrum. Merkel has been a problem on the world community specifically the EU and has helped cause a lot of the issues over there.  I wouldn't want to shake a leaders hand who has proven to be awful for their country/region

He constantly dogs Mexico and even campaigned on the promise that he was going to make them pay for a border wall, which ended up being a lie. The idea was to pay for it through either new trade agreements or the wall paying for itself by releasing the burden of illegals on the economy

During the campaign, he accused the British government of using spies to wiretap his phones under the direction of Obama.  I'm sure he didn't expect it was the obama administration with the help of the fbi/cia.  So ya he was partially wrong

He insulted London's police force after the terrorists attacks and implied the Mayor took terrorism lightly.  A mayor who says terrorism is part and parcel of living in a big city could be seen as someone who takes terrorism lightly, also the guy is hesitant to call anything terrorism involving a certain group but quick to call it terrorism when it is another.

He said we should pull our troops out of South Korea, because "that country isn't paying us what they should be paying us".  he was just in the country working on trade deals so I would assume he is trying to fix that accusation or bridge whatever gap there is.


I know there is much more, but this is the only ones I can think of off the top of my head.

Go Jags!
