After hosting the Saudi Crown Prince at the White House this week, Donald Trump left onlookers 'outraged' over an 'un-American' blunder.

Prince Mohammed bin Salman touched down in Washington D.C. on Tuesday (18 Nov) for a meeting intended to strengthen ties between the United States and the Middle East.

Following serious discussions, 79-year-old Trump described Saudi Arabia as a 'major non-NATO ally', giving the country access to necessary military hardware as part of a tight-knit defence collaboration.

Trump announced plans for advanced F-35 fighter jets to be sold to Saudi after the latter promised major investment pledges into the States - specifically in areas including AI, civil nuclear energy, and tech.

As we say, however, during the royal visit, the Middle Eastern ruler was given a tour by Trump of the White House, including of newly-implemented 'Presidential Walk of Fame' - a move which would later come under fire by critics.

The controversial collection was unveiled back in September, having been hung up along a walk way of the presidential residence's West Wing. It features a collection of black and white portraits of leaders who came before 79-year-old Trump.

However, instead of including a photo of the 46th President and his political 'frenemy', Joe Biden, the Republican used a photo of an autopen signing his signature.

For reference, Trump and his right-wing administration have ceaselessly alleged that the 82-year-old Democrat had relied upon such a machine for signing vital documents on his behalf - claims Biden and his team deny.

In new viral snaps, the current leader can be seen showing Prince bin Salman his latest installation, with the Saudi front-man laughing in response.

After catching wind of Trump's slander of his presidential predecessor, a number of onlookers have expressed their disappointment.

Taking to X (formerly Twitter), one yank hit out: "The United States has fallen so low. Never before has a sitting president behaved in such a manner. He is ridiculing a former president in front of a foreigner."

They added: "I am absolutely outraged. These are not American values."

A second went on: "Trump mocked a former president in front of a foreign leader, as if America’s dignity were his plaything. It’s not Biden’s image that collapses… it’s the nation’s honour. When others laugh, it’s because the president invited it."

"It is repugnant. That man is not President. He should be behind bars," a third pleaded.

Another continued: "You’re right to be horrified. It’s childish and pathetic. Real leaders focus on their future accomplishments. This guy just wants REVENGE."
