My personal guess is, you've partly hit the nail on the head. I am also willing to bet that at least for a split second, if not for a much longer duration, JT just straight up blanked out / panic mode kicked in. It is also obvious that he is thinking hard on what he can say that would not piss off the Orange Bully, unlike the time when he was making dinner / mingling jokes with other international leaders about Trump behind his back, but had the conversation inadvertently caught on camera.
At least he learned a lesson from that last time, eh?

How would you deal with Trump? Considering no matter what you think of him, he's the leader of your biggest ally by far.
You have to deal with him, despite the fact that he is literally evil.
If you "put him on blast" then you have to deal with the incoming potentially dangerous tantrum
If you praise him, you are praising some abhorrent, disgusting, vile actions and statements.
So what do? You have 5 seconds or some people are going to make fun of you on the internet for putting too much consideration into your actions and words.
