Former California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger publicly criticized President Donald Trump’s conduct during the 16 Aug 2025 meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Alaska, calling the U.S. leader “a little wet noodle” and “a fanboy.” In a video statement circulated online, Schwarzenegger said he was “embarrassed” by Trump’s performance and suggested the president had failed to stand up for U.S. interests, contrasting the encounter with President Ronald Reagan’s 1987 Berlin Wall address.
