How does one explain President Trump leaving the G-7 in a huff after a Twitter row on Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and French President Emmanuel Macron and then call upon the G-7 to readmit Russia?
This is the behavior of a Russian puppet, not an American President. How does slapping tariffs on Canadian and EU steel & aluminum benefit America? How does readmitting Russia into the G-7 benefit America? It doesn't. Only Russia and those beholden to it stand to gain.
Of course, Trump hasn't always been wrong on foreign policy with moving the U.S. Embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem and ending the Iran nuclear deal being good examples. Indeed the Iran nuclear deal was never in America's interest and moving the embassy to Jerusalem has been longstanding U.S. policy finally enacted upon. But these are exceptions rather than the rule as I think his forthcoming on again, off again summit with North Korean dictator Kim Jong un in Singapore will soon demonstrate.
