Nato Secretary General Mark Rutte told reporters at the summit in the Hague that President Donald Trump was like a “daddy” intervening in a schoolyard fight.
Having a ceasefire just because this guy tweets “Ceasefire on! No takesy-backsies!” Is like debt collectors forgiving your credit history if you shout, “I declare bankruptcy!”
