President Donald Trump took a moment on Sunday to keep his feud with Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni\u00a0going by posting a picture of her gazing at him longingly. The president used the picture to suggest she was a stalker.<\/p>\n

\u201cRESTRAINING ORDER NEEDED\u201d read the caption along the top of the photo.<\/p>\n

That post<\/a> came amid a flurry of other pictures posted by Trump, including a picture of him arm wrestling Hulk Hogan, photos of him giving speeches at Mount Rushmore and other places recently, and an early \u201990s pic of him with Marla Maples and Macaulay Culkin.<\/p>\n

Trump also posted a doctored picture of ex-President Barack Obama and ex-First Lady Michelle Obama boarding Air Force One; the pic showed \u201cBLM\u201d and Obama\u2019s slogan \u201cYes We Can\u201d spray painted onto the plane, as well as some Arabic writing. You can see that post below:<\/p>\n

As for Meloni, Trump ripped her<\/a> and other Euro countries for not doing enough to help the USA in the Iran war last month. Trump said he denied taking a picture with Meloni at the G7 Summit in France because Italy wouldn\u2019t allow the USA to use \u201cItaly\u2019s landing strips or runways,\u201d which was a \u201cgreat logistical inconvenience.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cShe wants to be friends again in order to get her \u2018numbers up,’\u201d Trump added<\/a>. \u201cNo thanks!!!\u201d<\/p>\n

Meloni punched back shortly after, saying Trump\u2019s verbal shots were \u201cunprovoked\u201d and \u201csenseless.\u201d She then said being his pal has not helped her popularity in Italy.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy popularity depends on my ability to defend Italy\u2019s national interest, and that is exactly what I have always done,\u201d she said. \u201cThat is also what I did regarding the American military bases in Italy. Their use is governed by agreements that we have always respected, and that cannot be violated as long as I am Prime Minister.\u201d<\/p>\n

Meloni added, \u201cItaly remains a sovereign nation. In any case, my popularity is none of your concern. I suggest you focus on yours.\u201d<\/p>\n

Their feud stands out, considering Trump\u2019s past friendship with Meloni seemed to be one of the strongest relationships he had with European leaders. He even took a moment during a speech last year to compliment Meloni on being a \u201cbeautiful young woman\u201d<\/a>; Trump said the comment would be political suicide in most cases, but he was willing to roll the dice to say it.<\/p>\n

More recently, Trump has bashed NATO for not doing enough to help<\/a> with the Iran war.<\/p>\n
