Trump Withdraws Endorsement Of G-7 Communique Over Trudeau Statements

Leaving the Group of Seven Summit for Singapore, President Trump tweeted that he has instructed U. S. representatives to not endorse a joint communique issued by the G-7 leaders.

Trump said his statement was in response to Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's comment following the summit that Canada "would not be pushed around."

"PM Justin Trudeau of Canada acted so meek and mild during our @G7 meetings only to give a news conference after I left saying that 'US Tariffs were kind of insulting' ... Very dishonest & weak," the president tweeted.

Trump posted his comments from Air Force One as Canada was releasing the official communique that had been endorsed by all seven leaders.

It said that the United States, Canada, Britain, France, Italy, Germany and Japan had agreed on the need for "free, fair, and mutually beneficial trade."

Trudeau's office responded to Trump's tweet saying "We are focused on everything we accomplished here at the #G7 summit. The Prime Minister said nothing he hasn't said before — both in public, and in private conversations with the President."

Earlier on Saturday, President Trump concluded his visit to the Group of Seven summit with warnings to U.S. allies, saying if they don't eliminate barriers to trade, they could lose access to the U.S. economy.

Speaking in a solo press conference from the resort town of La Malbaie in Quebec, the president said that for too long, U.S. trade has suffered from "bad" trade deals agreed to by past U.S. presidents.

"The United States has been taken advantage of for decades and decades," Trump said. "I don't blame other leaders for that, I blame our past leaders. There was no reason that this should have happened."

Trump said he pushed for the elimination of trade barriers, including subsidies and tariffs, at the G-7 meeting.

Trump had already roiled G-7 members ahead of the summit and raised fears of a trade war when he placed tariffs on steel and aluminum from Canada, the European Union and Mexico. All three trading partners have threatened to retaliate with their own levies against U.S. imports.

"If they retaliate, they're making a mistake," Trump said.

He arrived at the conference hours after he was expected to be there and left hours before expected (and that exit was going to be a day before everybody else anyways).

Having Bolton there for the implied threat of nuclear retaliation is a nice touch. Abe looks like he's thinking of running Merkel over with a Japanese car.

Ha, ha, ha! This is beautiful. How can Juan (and his especial amigo Angie) be so stupid to post this themselves! Is their neural circuitry that different than that of normal people's they just don't see the same optics? Shinto-Trump Stonewall. The banshee cat lady's days are over. Trump's trying to keep from laughing and Shinto's trying to keep from rolling his eyes. Trump was totally right: All that's missing is Vlad and it would be perfect.

Another side story from the G7. Trump is famous for his handshakes- he likes to use them to demonstrate his power. He and Macron have been going back and forth with handshake wars. This time, it left a mark on Trump- literally. Body language matters.

Emmanuel Macron's thumb left a literal imprint on Trump's hand as they continued their tradition of intense handshakes



French President Emmanuel Macron's thumb left a literal imprint on President Donald Trump's hand at the G7 summit in Canada as they continued their tradition of intense handshakes.

When Trump met with Macron in France last year, the two shared an intense handshake that saw both men clench their fists until their knuckles turn white.

Earlier this year, the two world leaders shared an awkward handshake-turned-side-hug during a press conference at the White House during Macron's official state visit to the United States.

Trump's and Macron's most recent intense handshake came at the annual G7 summit, where Trump received a frosty welcome in the wake of Trump administration policies that have left the US increasingly isolated from its closest allies and trading partners.

US version of the meeting puts Trump at the center of attention- though he does have an awkward expression on his face.



Macron's posted version shows him giving it to Trump.

They are not confronting, they are lecturing.

Justin Trudeau trolls Trump with framed photo of his grandfather's Canadian brothel

Trump's grandfather, Friedrich Trump, opened the Arctic Restaurant and Hotel in 1897 during the Klondike Gold Rush. It was one of the first properties in the Trump real estate empire.

Though President Trump has vehemently denied the property was ever operated as a brothel, history suggests otherwise.

Justin Trudeau: Tariffs are Only Illegal When U.S. Does It…
Posted on June 9, 2018by sundance


Delivering remarks in a post G7 press conference, Prime Minister Justin from Canada outlines his perspective on the summit and takes questions from a pre-selected media audience. Many of the questions centered around U.S. positions on trade/tariffs and the Canadian/EU position that U.S. tariffs are illegal; whereas Canadian and EU tariffs are quantifiable expressions of magnanimous intellectual superiority and Americans should spend more time thanking them, instead of these feeble efforts to gain trade reciprocity.


The underlying Trudeau trade premise is that the U.S. should be thankful for the products brought into the U.S. market by Canadians and Europeans. And Americans should express their appreciation through unilateral indulgence-fees for friendship. If President Trump does not agree to continue the cycle of abusive trade policies, the Europeans and Canadians might stop saying they are our closest and most valuable ally.
Here’s The Final Charlevoix G7 Agreement CLICK HERE


In the granular details: •On NAFTA Justin from Canada says a sunset clause on any renegotiated trade deal is a non-starter regardless of time-frame. If the U.S. intends to reevaluate the outcomes of a trade deal, there can be no trade deal – ever.





According to Trudeau’s economic team, there will never be any new products or services created within industry, ever again. Accordingly, the world currently has all the products and technology that will ever exist in the life-cycle of human existence; therefore there is no reason to ever plan on a need to renegotiate trade at any duration of trade agreements.


•On the global gender equity initiative, six of the G7 members have agreed to a $3.8 billion fund to create more opportunity for female organisms; and/or for the expanded rights of those who might identify as female organisms in the next generation. The central beneficiary group of the G7 gender equity initiative will likely be human; however, in the spirit of inclusivity the communique also accepts a building movement within the EU to recognize planetary gender inequality amid all species.


In fairness to the female Salvadorian four-toed sand lizard who might not want to face the horrors of sub-tropical male domination and subsequent impregnation; the U.N. will use a portion of the G6-1 funding to study the sensibilities of trans-gender lizards in the Southern Hemisphere. The international monetary fund will be responsible for distribution and will use their upper-east-side suites as the temporary conduit until the new international center for gender equality building is finished; [*note the design competition and contractor bidding period has been extended until August 14th, 2021]


•On the horrors of plastics and climate initiatives, the G7 agreement morphed to a recycled G5 as Japan and the United States refused to sign on to the planned planetary elimination of all plastic, petroleum and carbon-based products.
Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe raised the argument it was impossible for many people to carry enough water from the river, in their cupped bare hands, to take a shower. Germany’s Angela Merkel became quite cross, and pointed out that showers and bathing were already verboten per the 2011 G20 communique and international water-conservation agreement in Finland.


Theresa May rose to support Ms. Merkel and pointed out how the success of the 2011 Finland water-conservation-agreement necessitated and supported accepting increased middle-east immigration. Less EU bathing means more water. More water equals happier fish; and many of the most disenfranchised of the pelagic species had their planetary rights trampled for eons by colonial expansionists.
PM May supports correcting those historic abuses, and the U.K. Council on Subterranean Species Initiatives (UK-CSTSI) has been monitoring the sensibilities of North Atlantic cod for almost half-a-decade. The councils’ work has been a key policy initiative for the elimination of insensitive fish-and-chip shops throughout England and Northern-Ireland.
