G7 showdown: Furious Trump will exit summit EARLY, labels Trudeau 'indignant' and slaps down Macron after accusing the French and Canadian leaders of 'charging the US massive tariffs' following their tough talk on trade war

President Trump lobbed a Twitter attack at the leaders of France and Canada

He said both nations were charging 'massive tariffs' on U.S. products Donald Trump is planning to leave the G7 summit early - skipping the climate discussions - following a furious Twitter spat with French President Emmanuel Macron.

Trump also attacked Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, labeling him as 'indignant' and accusing him of damaging US agriculture, while complaining that both he and President Macron 'are charging the U.S. massive tariffs.'

Macron fired back on Twitter that the summit did not need the US.

'The American President may not mind being isolated, but neither do we mind signing a 6 country agreement if need be,' he wrote.

'Because these 6 countries represent values, they represent an economic market which has the weight of history behind it and which is now a true international force.'

French President Emanuel Macron earlier took a shot at Trump

'Maybe the American president doesn't care about being isolated today, but we don't mind being six'

Its disgusting how when we want to charge reciprocal tariffs the EU, Canada, ,Mexico, et al act as if they are the first tariffs ever charged in the history of international trade. And the US media goes along with it.

“I am heading for Canada and the G-7 for talks that will mostly center on the long time unfair trade practiced against the United States. From there I go to Singapore and talks with North Korea on Denuclearization. Won’t be talking about the Russian Witch Hunt Hoax for a while

Do it moron, I double-dog dare you to follow through with your hollow threat. You will only aid President Trump in making America great while completely destroying your misguided European Union. Canada can protect themselves as well, because when we come in to protect American interest, should Canada come under attack, we will annex Canada into America. Hence making the former Canada great for the first time in history.

“F” France!! THERE'S a country that wouldn't even BE a country except that American blood bought their boarders for them. TWICE

Canada? Ha! They live right next door to the biggest baddest MO-FO military in the KNOWN universe! No one is gonna mess with Canada...so all the money they save by NOT needing a military of their own buys them their SH^%%y health care, they love to beat us over the head with.

Please don't get me started with all the free-loading creeps we saved and continue to support.

That fits with Trump’s tweet from earlier today =>

“Looking forward to straightening out unfair Trade Deals with the G-7 countries. If it doesn’t happen, we come out even better!”

So allowing one country after another to rob us blind with unfair trade deals is needed to promote international harmony?

Yes, that is exactly how liberals think. After all, most white liberals are upper middle class. So they don't think it hurts them. And they want to be "liked" by these countries that take our money and then spit in our general direction. Fools of the first order, they are.

I would say great minds think alike, however, I would never presume to categorize me within the great minds fraternity.

I for one hope that Trump digs his heels in and stands his ground. Now is not the time to flinch nor blink or give in. America has been suffering mightily for far too long now and all at the hands of the greedy Free Traders and to the detriment of our own citizens and workers and farmers and businesses reliant upon exports. It’s been anything but Free Trade, more Unfair Trade at Americas expense. It’s time to reel in these unfair trade agreements around the world. Start buying American again.

These countries have been blood sucking leeches. By draining our wealth we’ve helped them to be socialist countries. They need to pay for their own darn governments!
