He needs good news. And his way of getting good news is not to negotiate a good deal. His way of getting good news is to agree. So he goes into flattery mode. I'm sure Xi will flatter Donald Trump. And in return, Donald Trump will flatter him. And that will result in the Chinese getting what the Chinese want.

And we are doing this, it is UN week in New York. And as a matter of fact, as we are recording, Donald Trump is in Manhattan snarling traffic and speaking at the UN.
I think he's literally speaking at the UN. And he looked incredulous because who was at his side?
My wife, Melania.
Your wife, Melania, the subject of your lawsuit, we should catch up with your lawsuit and find out what's going on with it, who was strangely dressed like a Supreme Court justice with a sort of white tie. She's given up the placebo, which she used to wear, and now she's gone straight for it. It's a bit of a Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
Melania Trump has somehow become Jewish, in other words.
Oh, no, I wasn't thinking of that. I wasn't thinking of that. Did you have a big feast last night, by the way?
We're going to talk about my levels of observance. Is that what you want to talk about now? No. Just because someone might be Jewish, you don't have to attach them to a Jewish holiday. Well, it's the most important Jewish holiday. Yeah, even so. It's what Brits do. Oh, you're Jewish. How come you don't have a yarmulke on?
No, that's not what I said.
What is the opening discussion about Trump’s battle with the press and the upcoming live podcast event?
I said, did you have a big feast last night? Because every Jew in New York I know, it's their big holiday.
No, well, that is not true. And there's many, many Jews, actually more Jews than not, are not observant, as I am not observant, as I am actually only equivocally Jewish.
What does that mean? You're only equivocally Jewish?
Well, my father's Jewish. My mother is not Jewish.
Oh, okay. Well, I didn't know that. All right. Well, whatever. I thought you might have heard
it. You see, it's always
the
Brits getting trapped in Jewish talk, and then they go, oh.
I'm not going, uh, I'm just saying a lot of my friends were having big fears last night. A lot of your friends are
Jewish.
Oh, I just can't win. I cannot win. Moving swiftly on, Melania has turned up. Where is Natalie Harp? Natalie Harp is the one who's been force-feeding him clips of MS now and
CNN. I'm sure she's there. And we want to get to
the networks
and the press. But I have two UN week sightings. Go on. So I saw, so Stephen Chung and I.
Stephen Chung, White House communications director. Yes.
Yes, who regularly issues statements about what a scumbag I guess I am. There's a couple of boilerplate words that he attaches to me. But we locked eyes and I thought he was going to greet me because actually we like each other.
