"President Donald Trump greeted Cooper after landing at Stansted Airport and the irony of the moment was not lost on the British press as the pair clasped hands and exchanged words for just over 11 seconds on the tarmac before the president boarded Marine One for the short flight to Winfield House, the U.S. ambassador's residence where he is staying."
"She has called him in the past inflammatory, ignorant, dangerous. She went on a march, a women's march a few years back, where she called him out for the language that he has used uh about women in the past. He added: She is a champion of women's rights. She was extremely agitated and upset about those comments. But in her new life as foreign secretary, she can't say any of that."
President Trump arrived at Stansted Airport and exchanged an extended handshake with Yvette Cooper that lasted around eight to eleven seconds. Sky News journalists mocked the prolonged handshake on their Trump 100 podcast and recalled Cooper's past public criticisms of Trump. The journalists listed descriptions Cooper used previously, including inflammatory, ignorant, and dangerous, and referenced her participation in a women's march protesting his language about women. Commentators observed that Cooper's role as foreign secretary limited her ability to repeat those criticisms publicly and framed the handshake as an awkward moment of political necessity and irony.
