Trump takes the Office Space / Bill Lumbergh tone w/ African leaders (..."that would be great...")

Trump scolded the leaders of several African nations because he said they were talking too much.

At a luncheon with the leaders on Wednesday, Trump spoke at length about his accomplishments before handing the floor over to the president of Mauritania. Within minutes, however, the U.S. president lost his patience and signaled for the leader to wrap up his remarks.

"I appreciate it," Trump said. "Maybe we're going to have to go a little bit quicker than this because we have a whole schedule. If I could just say your name and your country would be great."
