'I don't like you either': Trump chides Australian ambassador Kevin Rudd at White House – video

'I don’t like you either. And I probably never will,” the US president, Donald Trump, tells Australian ambassador Kevin Rudd at the White House cabinet room table. After an Australian reporter asks the president about Rudd’s previous remarks, Trump replies, saying: 'I don’t know anything about him. If he said bad, then maybe he’d like to apologise.' Turning to Albanese, Trump in a half-joking tone, asks: 'Did an ambassador say something bad about me? Don't tell me. Where is he? Is he still working for you?'
