Bill White, Trump-channelling US envoy to Belgium

The longtime Democrat and fundraiser says he is focused on relaying Trump’s message as Belgian media gives him front-page attention.

  • Ambassador White, the new US envoy to Belgium, is executing a mission to secure $50 billion in deals for President Trump. He told AFP in Brussels that Trump laughed and said, "Bring back $50 billion in deals."
  • The 59-year-old diplomat was a longtime Democrat and liberal champion before shifting his political allegiance to Trump following the 2016 election. White became a key fundraiser for the billionaire, raising large sums in recent campaigns.
  • Despite reports of anti-American sentiment in Europe, White dismissed such claims as "all baloney." He recounted a boat trip through Ghent last Saturday where locals called out, "Ambassador White from America! We love America."
  • Scheduled for the 250th anniversary of US independence, a major US-style bash in Brussels will feature Prime Minister Bart De Wever giving a speech. White promised it will be the "largest, biggest, best" event outside Washington.
  • By monitoring Truth Social for updates, White claims he knows exactly what the president is thinking. His mission is to "get an A plus" from Trump by relaying the president's message to Belgian leaders and diplomats.
