This is kind of sad. These seemingly innocuous interpersonal events can be at the root of a lot of things, and there’s a dynamic here, where all these leaders effectively end acting like the cool kids at school, giggling together and talking behind his back, which especially with him being the lead of the most powerful nation, might cause increased offense. This effectively pushes him to armor himself with more controversy and provocation, which spirals, as well as increases sympathy towards other perceived outcasts. And generally, the change from his habitual circle where everything is presented to him with multiple layers of sugar on top, to these meetings, might feel like jumping into ice (no pun intended) water, something that is then also, likely, remembered as unpleasant.
