Here is what Trudeau said that set off the man-child's tamper tantrum. And btw, this piece is written by a Center-Right columnist for the Washington Post, Jennifer Rubin. Video of Trudeau's comments at link:

"He no doubt was reacting to the public tongue-lashing from Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, who told the press, “I highlighted directly to the president that Canadians did not take it lightly that the United States has moved forward with significant tariffs on our steel and aluminum industry.” Trudeau continued by declaring that the Trump administration’s decision to invoke “national security” to justify tariffs was “insulting” given Canada’s alliance with the United States in multiple wars. As Trudeau put it, “Canadians, we’re polite, we’re reasonable, but we also will not be pushed around.” Trump can never tolerate criticism, let alone such public and direct criticism, so he accused Trudeau of making “false statements” and reneged on the decision to sign the joint communique."
So how does Trump respond? Like so: "“PM Justin Trudeau of Canada acted so meek and mild during our @G7 meetings only to give a news conference after I left saying that, ‘US Tariffs were kind of insulting’ and he ‘will not be pushed around,’” Trump tweeted. “Very dishonest & weak.”
In other words, he responded like the bully he is. He really only respects bullies and fellow authoritarians. Remember the time he called Philippines president Duterte and told him he was doing a "great job" with the drug problem there, knowing that "great job" included thousands of extra-legal killings? Yeah, meek and mild don't cut it with our meanspirited Bully in Chief. I don't know how anyone can respect this infantile clown. But of course his followers will cheer on this show of "strength". Kick our friends in the teeth is what turns his followers on. Sad.
Here was the French response:
"Mr Macron's office said France and other EU countries would maintain their support for the final G7 communique.
"Let's be serious and worthy of our people. We make commitments and keep to them," a statement from the French presidency quoted by AFP news agency said.
"International co-operation cannot be dictated by fits of anger and throwaway remarks," it added."
Gee, ya think? Seems to me it's our President who does most of the whining nowadays. But, emotionally, he's a six year old....
First Donald whines about Russia not being invited. I’m sure his brain dead base will find nothing suspicious about that. Then shows up late. Then he leaves early. And now this:
