Re-sharing Gandhi’s tweet, Millben wrote, “PM Modi is not afraid of President Trump. PM Modi understands the long game and his diplomacy with the U.S. is strategic.”
“Just as @POTUS will always put America’s interests first, so will PM Modi do what is best for India. And I applaud that. That’s what Heads of State do. They do and say what is best for their country.”
In the concluding lines of the tweet, she wrote, “I don’t expect you to understand this type of leadership because you don’t possess the acumen to be PM of India. Best to return to your ‘I hate India’ tour that has an audience of one - you.”
How did social media react?
An individual wrote, “Well said, Mary. Any true nationalist can see Modiji’s smart diplomacy and long-term vision. Those whose hearts lie elsewhere may never understand. Good to see even a US citizen recognises this and gives him a fitting reply.” Another added, “Well said! PM Modi doesn’t play for applause; he plays for India’s long-term advantage. That’s true leadership.”
