Original: U.N. Delegations WALK OUT On Trump

The walkouts unfolded in front of the assembled diplomatic corps and were quickly picked up as a striking visual of international disapproval. Commentary is split between those reading it as a rebuke of Trump's policies and those dismissing the gesture as routine protest theater at the UN.
