US president Donald Trump reportedly bullied world leaders - including Prime Minister Scott Morrison - during “sadistic” phone calls.
Mr Trump was so abusive to long-standing American allies that senior US officials became convinced he posed a national security risk, according to a report published by Carl Bernstein, the journalist who broke the Watergate scandal
“Trump regularly bullied and disparaged other leaders of the western alliance during his phone conversations – including French President Emmanuel Macron, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, and Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison – in the same hostile and aggressive way he discussed the coronavirus with some of America’s governors,” the report reads.
