GMA: Europe Concerned About ‘Erratic Leaders’ Jong Un and…Trump

Eric Scheiner | July 5, 2017

ABC reporter Matthew Dowd compared President Donald Trump with N. Korea’s Kim Jong Un on Good Morning America Wednesday.

“The European community is worried about unpredictable erratic leaders, not only one in north Korea but one in the United States of America,” Dowd told former Clinton White House communications director/ABC Anchor George Stephanopoulos.

The comments came following a report about N. Korea’s intercontinental ballistic missile test and a discussion on the upcoming G20 summit where Trump will meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin .Am

“Matthew, we know the president likes to have successful meetings and wants to say he achieved something. But there's some real tension there because he does also have to confront someone who's been taking him on across the globe,” Stephanopoulos said.

“Well, George, I think there's real tension,” Dowd replied. “You take Vladimir Putin on one, but there's real tension with a lot of members of the G20. If you look at the recent polling in the international community, Donald Trump is not believed by most of the people in the European community to be trusted to do the right thing, and you take with that with Vladimir Putin, and now with what's happened in North Korea. The European community is worried about unpredictable erratic leaders, not only one in North Korea but one in the United States of America.”
