People are calling Donald Trump 'pathetic' after latest 'embarrassing' interview

Viewers are not impressed with Donald Trump's latest interview with some even dubbing the president's latest comments as 'pathetic' and 'embarrassing'.

Trump sat down with Fox News' Sean Hannity for an interview that aired on Thursday (January 8), where he discussed a range of different topics, including the recent capture of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro.

"We went in, we took Maduro out. Amazingly, nobody was killed," Trump said, adding the operation was an 'amazing attack'.

"We've knocked out 97 percent of the drugs coming in by water. There are almost no boats," he added.

The interview also saw the Nobel Peace Prize come up after Trump said on numerous occasions prior to the award being handed out to María Corina Machado that he deserved to claim it.

"She won the Nobel Peace Prize when she accepted that Peace Prize, she dedicated it to you," Hannity said, before asking the president: "Do you have any plans to meet with her, and would you accept the Nobel Prize she wants to hand to you?"

Trump replied with: "Well, I understand she's coming in next week sometime, and I look forward to saying hello to her, and I've heard that she wants to do that; that would be a great honor."

One social media user said Trump 'will embarrass Americans', while another described Trump's response as 'pathetic'.

Meanwhile, as per the Mirror, another X user described Trump's 'obsession' with the Nobel Peace Prize as 'baffling'.

Hannity spoke with the Nobel Peace Prize winner on Monday (January 5), with the journalist asking her if she would give the award to Trump following recent events.

"Well, it hasn’t happened yet, but I certainly love to be able to personally tell him that we believe the Venezuelan people, because this is a prize of the Venezuelan people, certainly want to give it to him and share it with him," Machado said.

The US has claimed that the action taken against Venezuela in the past week was to push back against drug trafficking.

Trump has also escalated his rhetoric around the US taking Greenland from Denmark, claiming that it is in the interests of 'national security', a move that's been widely condemned by European leaders and the rest of the world.

Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, have been charged with a series of criminal charges, which include: narco-terrorism conspiracy, cocaine importation conspiracy, possession of machine guns and destructive devices, and conspiracy to possess machine guns and destructive Devices against the United States.

The Venezuelan leader has pleaded not guilty while insisting he's 'still president'.

UNILAD has reached out to the White House for comment.
