Watch: Danish MP swears at Trump in EU speech; calls it 'words Mr President might understand'

A Danish member of the European parliament delivered an unorthodox and profane rebuke to US President Donald Trump on Tuesday (local time), saying “Let me put this in words you might understand: Mr President...” during a session addressing Trump’s controversial outreach on Greenland’s future.

"Trump, go fuck yourself." Danish MEP Anders Vistisen publicly insulted the US President for his attempts to annex Greenland. "I will say it in your language, President Trump: fuck off," he declared from the podium.
