LOADING ERROR LOADINGCNN host Abby Phillip on Saturday invoked one of the world’s most recognizable actors in one of his most memorable roles to analyze President Donald Trump’s recent moves. “Just 10 days into the new year, Donald Trump seems to be channeling his inner Leonardo DiCaprio and declaring himself the ‘king of the world,’” said Phillip on “Saturday Morning Table for Five.”AdvertisementPhillip’s “king of the world” reference is, of course, to DiCaprio’s famous declaration in the 1997 classic “Titanic.” She then began to go down a list of the president’s actions. “First, of course, the brazen raid and capture of Nicolás Maduro in Venezuela ...” Philip said. Phillip noted that “the plan for the aftermath” is “vague at best,” but said one thing is clear: Trump “wants the oil.” Venezuela holds the largest oil reserves in the world, and Trump has stated the U.S. will be “very strongly involved” in “the future” of its oil.
