PALM BEACH, Fla. — It was perhaps fitting that President Donald Trump ended another dizzying year in office with a crisis-driven day of surreal contrasts, one that began with him tracking a Middle East emergency from his golf club and ended with a tuxedo-clad president holding forth about North Korea, Iran and impeachment and vaping on a red carpet over the thumping din of party music.
Noting that Kim had previously pledged to begin a process of denuclearization — although many experts differ with that assertion — Trump professed little concern that his diplomacy with the North was on the rocks. Over pounding drums and a chorus that made it difficult to hear his words, the president renewed his complaints that European leaders, including Chancellor Angela Merkel of Germany, had not done more to support Ukraine.
“I really pretty much work — that’s what I like to do, is work,” Trump said in a video conference with military members serving overseas. “The Fake News said I played golf today, and I did NOT!” he wrote in an afternoon tweet. “I had meeting in various locations, while closely monitoring the U.S. Embassy situation in Iraq, which I am still doing. The Corrupt Lamestream Media knew this but, not surprisingly, failed to report or correct!”
