Well, being a classless, petty, vindictive Snowflake is very appealing to The Base. It’s the new normal continually demonstrated by our President.

One day ago, Trump said his relationship with all the G7 leaders was a '10'. So Trudeau says something the President does not like, therefore he snubs Britain, France, Germany, Italy, and Japan?

Imagine you are Vladimir Putin, and you want to see the Western Alliance fractured. How about an American President who forgives your invasion of the Crimea and suggests that Russia be re-admitted to the G7 (okay, G8), while simultaneously reneging on a commitment to sign an agreement with the other members of the group?

I'm not sure if the idea was vetted by the State Department, but it was probably green-flagged by the GRU. It was hardly Russia' s worst nightmare.

And 'a special place in hell for Justin Trudeau?' Gotta give the Trump administration credit. They're building a wall on the Northern border just by moving their lips.
