Fox’s Peter Doocy Declares Trump’s Throwdown With South African President: ‘Most Awkward Oval Office Meeting Since Zelensky’

Fox News’ Peter Doocy reacted to President Donald Trump’s Oval Office throwdown Wednesday with South African President Cyril Ramaphosa by calling it the “most awkward Oval Office meeting” since Trump and Vice President JD Vance took turns berating Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky earlier this year.

“I didn’t even know that you could dim the lights in the Oval Office, which is decades old. Seems like a place that would just have an on or off switch, but President Trump called for the lights to be dimmed so that he could show this multimedia presentation to basically call the-, call the visiting South African president’s bluff,” began Doocy after being asked about the meeting.

“The South African president came here to say there is no genocide happening in South Africa. President Trump basically said, ‘Okay, well, then what’s all of this?’ And he showed political leaders, and opposition leaders in South Africa saying some very heinous and violent things for several minutes. And he just made the South African president and the rest of the South Africa delegation sit there in the half-dark room and watch it,” he continued, adding:

And afterwards, President Trump did want to talk a little bit about trade and his visiting famous golfer friends from South Africa got to speak as well. He said he has not made up his mind, despite the presentation that he had his staff cut and put forward, he’s not made his mind yet about whether or not there’s genocide happening. That is something the South African team strenuously-, strenuously denies, and it’s worth pointing out that is definitely the most awkward Oval Office meeting since Zelensky was here.

“It ended a little bit better because I can see the vehicle, it is not leaving– the South African delegation is not leaving early, they will be sticking around for lunch,” concluded Doocy. “But really when you watch that, it seems like that the Trump foreign policy doctrine is a lot like the old slogan for the MTV show, The Real World, ‘Where people stop being polite and start getting real.’ And that’s what we just saw from President Trump.”
