      I wasn’t sure if they were clapping for him or the people that walked out. If it was for him, you’d think they were meeting a celebrity or somethin. Just another thing in the really weird behavior pile. Treating politicians like celebrities or singers just doesn’t make sense.

        It could be regular conference etiquette. Every conference I have been to with speakers have as applause as the speaker takes the stage.

        But I choose to believe they are congratulating those with a spine who walk out while a he talks.

    Arrest him, there’s an ICC warrant out for him. Performative gestures don’t have any impact in an uncivil setting.
