Famous Politicians Who Have Used Expletives in Public

According to Donald Trump, Iran and Israel “don’t know what the fuck they’re doing”.

Waking up to find the ceasefire he had brokered had been violated, the US president told reporters outside the White House: “Israel, as soon as we made the deal, they came out and they dropped a load of bombs, the likes of which I’ve never seen before, the biggest load that we’ve seen.”

“We basically have two countries that have been fighting so long and so hard that they don’t know what the fuck they’re doing.”

Asked about Trump’s comments on Wednesday, the Australian prime minister Anthony Albanese said, “I think that he stated his views pretty abruptly and I think they were very clear.”

The furious expletive reflected “the gravity, the enormity of the situation in the Middle East”, the treasurer, Jim Chalmers, said earlier in the day.

Trump is not the first leader to drop the f-word in a high-profile situation. Here are similarly startling instances.
