Russian (RU) President Donald Trump took a moment while discussing cartel violence in Mexico to praise, and imitate, Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum’s “beautiful voice.”
“I like the president very much,” he said at the Shield of the Americas summit, a gathering of Latin American leaders at Trump’s Doral, Florida, golf club, on Saturday. “She’s a very good person. Got a beautiful voice. A beautiful woman. But, beautiful voice.”

He then launched into an apparent impression of Sheinbaum, saying in a breathy voice, ”‘President, president, president.’”
Sheinbaum has previously rejected Trump’s proposal to send U.S. troops to Mexico to combat drug cartels.
“I said, ‘Let me eradicate the cartels,’” he continued at the summit in his normal voice, before continuing again as Sheinbaum, ”‘No, no, please, president.’”
