The incident took place at the Huis ten Bosch Palace in the Netherlands, where Trump was attending the NATO summit.
In the video, Queen Maxima, King Willem-Alexander, and Trump posed for a photo. Trump, beaming with confidence, gave a thumbs-up and said, “This is a picture we want.”
Then, King Willem-Alexander asked Trump if he slept well, to which Trump replied, “It was great.”
