At G-20 summit, it looks more and more like Trump against the world
The Washington Compost ^ | July 5, 2017 | Damian Paletta and Ana Swanson

President Trump and key global leaders are on a collision course ahead of the Group of 20 summit in Germany this week, with Trump's unapologetic “America First” mantra on trade and climate change running into emboldened, and increasingly united, opposition overseas.

Trump reiterated his threats on Wednesday to pull the United States back from existing trade deals, arguing they were against the national interest. As Trump threatens to retreat from global trade, other world powers are exploring new economic ties.

The European Union and Japan are expected on Thursday to announce plans for a major new free trade agreement. The E.U.-Japanese deal, which has only been negotiated in broad terms thus far, would lower barriers to exports of cars flowing in both directions, as well as reduce Japanese barriers to imports of trains and agricultural products, including cheese and chocolate, according to media reports. It would create a free trade area similar in size to North America, which is linked by the 1994 NAFTA agreement.

You got the liar and the liar in training.

Merkel specializes in meaningless F. U’s and this meeting is on her home turf. She’s all hat and no cattle in the end with all the problems the EU has. No worries.

When you have saved the world before, that gives you a distinct place to oppose it destroying itself again.

You and me against the world
Sometimes it seems like you and me against the world
When all the others turn their backs and walk away
You can count on me to stay

Did you catch the story about how all the major European leaders have no children? Merkel is one of them. Has she had any abortions? Would be par for the course......

Fake news media never questioned Obama’s prowess.

But they slam Trump’s every chance they get.

Fair and balanced, indeed.

Trump should fire a shot across Angies bow. Tell her that if she tries any cute crap, all out military bases disappear from Germany and into “East Prussia”

Since East Prussia is in Poland...

For whatever it’s worth, my housemate just received an uncommonly sobering alert from folks extremely well connected re NK’s nuke & new ICBM.

Trump against the world may have far more serious implications than any of us would want to think about. Do you have 3-6 months minimum of food & water IN your home? The folks sending my the personal alert do NOT casually send such messages out—extremely rarely. I think this is the first one he’s received from them.

When you're Number #1, everyone wants to take you down. When you're already Number #1, and you make known your intent to become orders-of-magnitude wealthier, stronger, smarter and better than ever before, the rest of the droolers and wannabes go apesnot.

When there are those among the droolers and wannabes who owe you their freedom, nay, their very way of life, because you also saved their useless asses from fascism and tyranny twice in the last century, then you have a recipé for envy, loathing and hatred of untold ferocity, because it stems from their self-admission of weakness, and having needed that help in the first place. It is not human nature to face such harsh truths about oneself candidly and honestly.

Far easier to find a culprit to assail. So much the better if it's those bastards who bailed you out, seeing as how they needed to get taken down a peg or two...

They're as predictable as they are pathetic. Screw 'em where they breathe.

Well, unless "the world" doesn't have any interest in accessing American markets, I wouldn't be too concerned.

Who are these people trying to kid?
