President Donald Trump once again proved why he’s the ultimate dealmaker during his recent meeting with European Union Commissioner Ursula von der Leyen at his Turnberry golf club in Scotland. While the liberal media continues to underestimate his negotiating prowess, Trump showcased his signature wit and unshakable resolve—leaving the globalist bureaucrat and the entire room in stitches before securing yet another America First trade deal.
As reported by The Gateway Pundit, Trump’s meeting with von der Leyen was a masterclass in both diplomacy and crowd engagement. The EU Commissioner, known for her bureaucratic rigidity, attempted to acknowledge Trump’s tough negotiating style, only to be swiftly—and hilariously—corrected by the 45th President.
“You’re known as a tough negotiator and dealmaker,” von der Leyen began before Trump interjected with perfect comedic timing.
“And fair,” Trump quipped, prompting immediate laughter from the room.
“And fair,” she conceded.
“That’s less important,” Trump fired back, sending the audience into another round of laughter.
This exchange perfectly encapsulates Trump’s unique ability to disarm opponents with humor while never losing sight of his ultimate goal: putting America first. While the left-leaning press obsesses over petty distractions, Trump remains laser-focused on delivering results for the American people. And true to form, by the end of negotiations, he had secured a trade deal that firmly places the U.S. in the driver’s seat—proving once again that his tough approach gets results.
The liberal media, of course, will downplay this victory. They’d rather spin false narratives about Trump’s style than admit his policies have strengthened the American economy, secured better trade terms, and forced foreign leaders to take our demands seriously. But the American people aren’t fooled. They know that when Trump says he’ll fight for them, he means it—whether through hardball negotiation tactics or well-timed humor that exposes the absurdity of the globalist elite.

Meanwhile, von der Leyen and the EU bureaucracy have learned the hard way that Trump doesn’t bluff. His warning of 30% tariffs on EU goods if no deal was reached by August 1st wasn’t an empty threat—it was a strategic move that forced Europe to the table. And as always, Trump walked away with the upper hand.
