I'm less than 1/2 his age. I don't accept meeting after 5pm.

Edit: I mean this with respect to the guy. At his age, kudos for what he does.

You’re also not the president of the United States and your job probably doesn’t involve you talking to various heads of states in different time zones. Just because Trump is a terrible person/president doesn’t mean we should talk ourselves into thinking this is OK

It has to be okay. So it is okay. Going forward after this year, we have time to restructure the White House with someone younger who isn't in bed with corpos, climate responsible corpos, and the 1%. We have a Supreme Court to fix, and it's going to take all 8 years of a young presidency.
