Wow! That’s about all that is left to say about Donald J. Trump’s showmanship at the G-7 summit in Quebec, Canada.<\/p>\n

He bolted the meeting early to fly aboard Air Force One for Singapore. The rest of the G-7 nations issue a joint communique, only to have the president of the United States instruct his staff to keep his signature off the document.<\/p>\n

He then accuses Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau of uttering “falsehoods,” and of being “meek and mild” during the summit.<\/p>\n

Here we go, ladies and gents. The nations that share the world’s longest unsecured common border are on the verge of a full-scale trade war. Trump went to the G-7 with a “bigly” chip on his shoulder. He offered stern warnings to our trading partners, threatening them with even more tariffs.<\/p>\n

He put this out via Twitter: PM Justin Trudeau of Canada acted so meek and mild during our @<\/span>G7<\/span><\/a> meetings only to give a news conference after I left saying that, \u201cUS Tariffs were kind of insulting\u201d and he \u201cwill not be pushed around.\u201d Very dishonest & weak. Our Tariffs are in response to his of 270% on dairy!<\/em><\/p>\n

Trump accused Trudeau of changing his tune after the president left the G-7 summit for his expected meeting with North Korea’s Kim Jong Un. Trudeau’s office responded, saying that the prime minister spoke consistently in public and in private with the president.<\/p>\n

Alliances? Friendships? Who needs ’em?<\/p>\n

So help me, we are being represented abroad by a buffoon in chief.<\/em><\/p>\n\n
