President Donald Trump hurled a tablet across the Oval Office when technical difficulties prevented him from talking on a group call with Canadas then-Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, according to a report.
The incident allegedly took place during French President Emmanuel Macrons visit to the White House in February 2025, about two weeks into Trumps second term. The two leaders were using the electronic device to join a call led by Trudeau when they were met with tech issues.
Trump became annoyed by the issue, which was preventing him from speaking on the call, and threw the device over the Resolute Desk and onto the floor, The Wall Street Journal reported, citing an official who was present during the meeting.
The presidents alleged temper tantrum was documented in an exposé published by the Journal on Sunday, which revealed the lengths European leaders have gone to keep Trump at bay since he returned to the White House last year.

Look at the bright side. At least he didn't throw feces.

(91,629 posts)Maybe hes just now starting to notice it.
Maybe up til now hes been able to con himself into thinking everybody loves, honors, fears, and worships him, when thats hardly been true from the beginning. Yes hes had plenty of fawning fans, but when thats all you hear and accept, because its been handled so as to block out ANYTHING negative that you might find objectionable, then youre just living in a cloud of falsehood.

Imagine Macron witnessing this display and keeping a straight face.

(43,230 posts)He cannot operate or even turn on a computer. How would he know how to have a Zoom meeting on a tablet?
He can manage a cellphone, obviously ... but that's all he can do. He has never sent an email in his life.
Whoever planned this Zoomer with Chump, Macron and Trudeau should have known that this was going to FAIL from the get-go. Either that, or have a knowledgeable assistant standing by in the Oval Office to make sure Chump doesn't throw the tablet against the wall, like he does with his ketchup bottles.

(28,391 posts)strike. The only reason he didn't throw feces is he couldn't get his diaper off by himself.

(18,020 posts)I'm sure someone ran and picked it up for him and said "Oh, Mr. President, this thing fell off your desk".
The correct response have been to pick it up and whack him upside the head. Maybe then he'd learn not to be so disrespectful.
