“President Trump, I just saw your press conference 
with President Putin, and it was embarrassing.” 
President Donald Trump has been receiving plenty of criticism 
following his press conference with Russian leader Vladimir Putin 
at the Helsinki Summit, including from former 
Governor of California Arnold Schwarzenegger. 
The action star turned politician took to Twitter on Monday 
to excoriate Trump for his “embarrassing” performance and 
scathingly call him a Putin “fan boy.” 
“You stood there like a little wet noodle, like a little fan boy,” 
Schwarzenegger said in the Twitter video. 
“I mean, I was asking myself when you are going to ask him for
an autograph or a selfie or something like that.”
Arnie also attacked Trump for siding with Putin and Russia 
over the entire U.S. intelligence community and the Justice 
Department over Russian interference in the 2016 election. 
“You’re the president of the United States. You shouldn’t do that. 
What’s the matter with you?” Schwarzenegger asked. 
Referencing the Cold War and former President Ronald Reagan, 
Schwarzenegger then rhetorically wondered what had 
become of the strength of U.S. policy towards Russia asking, 
“What happened to the strong words and the strength of Ronald Reagan 
when he stood there at the Berlin Wall and 
said 'Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall'?”
“What happened to all that?”
