That reminds me of a semi-Iconic scene at the UN, where
in a crowded room of speakers, then Chancellor of Germany, Angela Merkle was speaking for the whole room on a particular issue, with everyone in full agreement,
well, ‘everyone’ agreed except for one head of state, that was Donald J. Trump, President of the USA.
No matter how she framed her arguments, he refused to go along with everyone else. The Chancellor was at her wit’s end trying to get a ‘Yes’ from the American president.
She never did get one.
