Trump leaving G7 Summit early - tonight. Leavitt says he

is not angry just worried about the Middle East. Now Ukraine discussions tomorrow will take place without Trump.

Great

CBC News

I'm guessing Trump's oligarch handlers don't want him to concede anything at the Alberta G7 Summit.

His mother was right to send him away to military school at 15. Who would want to be in the same house as this mental defective?

I think his mother and father are the cause of his ODD and narcissistic disorder.

Sadly he never will. Narcissists rarely if ever get help. They think there's nothing wrong with them.

1) could have been announced before he left for the G7.
2) Trump is inappropriate . He rambled in his presser with Carney, who saved him from further embarrassment by cutting short the presser.
3) Obviously Trump is cognitively impaired. It is magnified when he is in the presence of other leaders and can’t set them up.

there. He missed Vlad terribly. Just more ignorance about the purpose of the G7. N Korea and China weren't there, either.

He likes to think he can dominate a room, but he really has no power over foreign leaders unless he has some kind of leverage over them. The G7 ain't buying his bullshit.

He should be front and center for that. I thought he’s the great deal maker.

I think he just doesn’t fit in because he is clueless about policies and strategies. Plus he’s innately unlikable.

The Ukraine discussions. I'm sure the other countries would worry he'd report right back to putin.

So he's pretending he's oh, so important to Israel in the Iran battles. Netanyahu doesn't seem to listen to trump either so he's just flailing around trying to appear important now.

He's spent after his birthday weekend ended in humiliation. Bitter and raging. As usual. Didn't look healthy today either.

No more bullying, empty promises and/or threats and their lack of respect for him personally and so called leadership. We, the People know all this, too, and now it’s time to reclaim our country

Or just excluded from any meaningful discussion? He can’t follow a discussion above a third grade level, stay awake unless he is being actively praised, or maintain confidentiality. He is not a serious person. His word is worthless. Everyone knows this. No doubt he was treated accordingly, so he stormed out as usual.

31. G7 has proof of vote manipulation
Mon Jun 16, 2025, 11:06 PM

If we know it they know it. “Russian tail” found in data graphs in multiple elections.

Dr. Walter R Mebane from the University of Michigan who also worked for USAID doing statistical analysis of foreign elections has found evidence of vote anomalies in the 2024 election. This is a link to his U Mich data base which also includes a report for the 2024 Pennsylvania Election data as well as links to data on election around the world.
