Do you think foreign leaders "dumb down" their communications so Trump will understand them? Do you think the WH also uses short sentences and small words to communicate with Trump? It's generally a good tactic to aim one's speech at one's target audience if you want to influence them. I dunno about foreign leaders, but the whole build the wall fiasco came from the people dumbing down the immigration problem to a phrase trump could easily remember.

And Erdogan gets everything he wants... while trump declares deal making victory and says turkey had to ‘clean out’ the Kurds...
Oh and Mulvaney came right out and they held back Ukraine funding until Ukraine would agree to investigate debunked conspiracy theories...
And G7 will be at Trumps property next year...
