If you believe that our illegitimate president remains the leader of the free world, you know nothing about international relations, or the fact that Trump is isolating the United States from our closest allies.

Trump has two big events this month. Today he is leaving for the G7 Summit in Canada, although he announced that he will leave before discussions of climate change ensue. In recent days he has angered the President of France, Emmanuel Macron, and the Prime Minister of Canada, Justin Trudeau, who is hosting the meetings.

World leaders understand this radical and unpredictable man, and are fully aware of lack of mental and intellectual competence.

This is what Mr. Macron had to say about Trump’s lack of complete participation in the summit.

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

Trump has accused Canada of continuing a huge trade deficit with America, and labeled the country of Prime Minister Trudeau a ‘security threat,’ neither of which has any basis in fact.

“Please tell Prime Minister Trudeau and President Macron that they are charging the U.S. massive tariffs and create non-monetary barriers. The EU trade surplus with the U.S. is $151 Billion, and Canada keeps our farmers and others out. Look forward to seeing them tomorrow.”

Trump is not a very good ‘story teller.’ His alternative facts can be easily exposed.

The second major event will take place in Singapore on June 12. Trump will be meeting with North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un. The early assumption is that the Korean leader will gain far more from the meetings than will Trump.

Yesterday Trump’s loud-mouthed and senile spokesperson, Rudy Giuliani, may have added a degree of difficulty to the event. When Trump announced that he was cancelling the meeting, negotiations between both sides reversed the hasty decision, and they are scheduled once again for the 12^th of this month. When Giuliani was speaking in Israel yesterday, making many ridiculous remarks, the most damaging may have been his statement that ‘Kim Jong-un came crawling back, begging for the summit.’ He obviously knows nothing about the young and egotistical tyrant.

Giuliani fits well with the Trump family; when his lips are moving, he’s lying. He is a disgrace, and cannot be allowed to represent our nation.

Republicans are your enemy; send them home on November 6^th.
