00:00Trump gets petty with Australian ambassador.

00:03I don't like you either.

00:04Things took an awkward turn during a White House meeting with Australian Prime Minister

00:08Anthony Albanese when Donald Trump singled out Australia's ambassador, stating,

00:12I don't like you either.

00:14One reporter asked Trump whether he had

00:17any concerns with this administration,

00:19specifically regarding Australia's stance on Palestine and climate change.

00:24The president was then asked for his reaction to the ambassador's past comments about him.

00:28Trump first acknowledged that he wasn't aware of any negative comments

00:31that ambassador had previously made about him.

00:34I don't know anything about him, Trump said.

00:36I mean, if he said bad things, then maybe he'd like to apologize.

00:39I really don't know.

00:40Did an ambassador say something bad about me?

00:42Don't tell me.

00:43I don't.

00:44Where is he?

00:45Is he still working for you?

00:46Albanese replied, he's there.

00:48Yeah.

00:49Trump then turned to Ambassador Kevin Rudd and asked,

00:52you said bad things?

00:54Rudd responded,

00:55before I took this position, Mr. President, but

00:57Before he could finish, Trump interjected,

00:59I don't like you either.

01:01He added, I don't, and I probably never will.

01:04Go ahead. Go ahead.

01:06After Trump was reelected to a second term,

01:08Rudd deleted old tweets criticizing him,

01:10some of which had labeled the U.S. president a traitor to the West

01:14and the most destructive president in history.

01:16Australian media noted that Rudd's past comments

01:19loomed large over Albanese meeting with Trump.
