After his comment came out in public domain, Twitterati have flooded the social media with their reactions.

A user wrote, "What I don't understand is how Trump can apply his trademark orange make-up without touching his face."

Another wrote, "So, the government of the world's greatest dealmaker bends over backwards to make a deal with our enemy (the Taliban) without making a deal with our ally (the Afghan government) and then it blows up in our face. Who would have thought? Trump is dangerously incompetent."

A post read, "Look at the color of trump's hands. now look at the color of his face."
