So what?

After this many ambushes you would think the president of South Africa would catch on.

How do they not change the script up a bit?

It's not like the South African was unaware of the situation. He just didn't want it brought up. That's not an ambush.

Got a feeling when heads of countries visit Trump in the future they are going to be ready.

AMBUSHED

Good. He deserved it. Genocide should be exposed.

It would make me so happy to see these two make up and work together.

It's at the White House. Every leader should expect tough questioning from the American president inside the White House.

What if they like, you know, reported on the genocide instead. That would be cool.
Posted on 5/22/25 at 8:35 am to stout
This is good.

Good. A world leader shouldn’t be able to come to the WH and spout lies and BS.

Ron thought it was pretty cool
Almost as cool when the leader of SA replied, "I wish I had a plane to give you".....
That was funny.
Gotta be able to take it and give it.

Okay... and?

I do not understand the idea that confrontation is bad, unbecoming, unfair, or unprofessional.
Ambush, unprofessional, bad, unbecoming are words used by those who were confronted, for good reason, and found to be in error or in the wrong.
So why is the media using such words? Were they confronted? No.
So that means they know they associate themselves with the ones in error or in the wrong (SA in this case, Ukraine in the case of Zelensky).
It is both an admission of guilt and lack of objectivity, both due to self-association.

So the leader of South Africa openly calls for the murder of white farmers, and Trump is the bad guy for calling him out on it?
That has to get exhausting for people in the media to constantly have to take these positions just to oppose Trump.

It's happening to wypipo.
They're more likely to sandpaper their skin and then bathe in lemon juice than to report the truth on this one.
