Trump ups attacks on 'weak' and 'politically correct' European leaders

Europe is “decaying” due to a group of “weak” leaders too focused on being “politically correct,” President Donald Trump said on Monday in his latest criticism of the leaders of traditional U.S. allies.

“I think they’re weak, but I also think that they want to be so politically correct,” the president told Politico in an interview. “I know the good leaders. I know the bad leaders. I know the smart ones. I know the stupid ones. You get some real stupid ones, too. But, uh, they’re not doing a good job. Europe is not doing a good job in many ways. They’re not doing a good job.”
