Italy Stops Engaging With Trump's Rants | US News

Italy’s government has officially called it quits on responding to Donald Trump’s online jabs at Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, including his viral post demanding a “restraining order” after falsely claiming she begged for a photo at the G7. Once a Trump supporter who attended his inauguration, Meloni is now navigating the fallout with poise—expected to greet him warmly at the upcoming NATO summit while keeping the diplomatic gloves on. Despite the noise, Italy’s officials showed up for the U.S. Independence Day celebration in Rome, signaling that behind the drama, bilateral ties remain intact. Even opposition parties are rallying behind Meloni, as Italian media fire back with their own memes—like Trump with Putin—highlighting the tension, but Italy’s official stance remains: no more public sparring.
