At the conclusion of the annual Group of Seven summit in Biarritz, France, U.S. President Donald Trump emerged on the world stage for a joint press conference with the summit host, French President Emmanuel Macron.
It certainly bore little resemblance to Trump's stream-of-consciousness rants on Twitter in which he criticizes TV shows and the "Fake and disgusting news," bad-mouths countries and former staffers, promotes conspiracy theories and complains about his approval ratings.
Trump should hold more of these types of press conferences and spend less time on Twitter.
Trump's press conference in France didn't involve any prepared statements or reading from a teleprompter, which tends to make Trump look like he's recording a hostage video.
In response to a journalist's question about Trump daring to consider letting Russia back into the G-7, Trump framed the issue as punishment for Obama having been "Outsmarted" by Russian President Vladimir Putin when Russia annexed the Crimean Peninsula in 2014.
When the press confronted Trump about his skepticism on climate change, Trump cut to the chase.
If only Trump could abandon Twitter in favor of performing like this at White House press conferences to do a better job of selling his actions and his agenda to the American public.
