Trump dislikes Trudeau and once ordered staff to attack him on TV, Bolton book alleges
Source: CBC
U.S. President Donald Trump does not like Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and once personally instructed his staff to attack him in television interviews, former White House official John Bolton alleges in his new book.
In his soon-to-be-released memoir, The Room Where It Happened, Bolton recounts the leaders' notorious dustup at the G7 conference in Quebec in 2018.
The tension at the meeting was widely known at the time, given Trump's move to impose broad tariffs on steel and aluminum imports, including products from allied countries like Canada.
Bolton, the former White House national security adviser, said the president had negative feelings about the leaders of Canada and France. In his book, he describes the unusual interpersonal dynamics of their meetings.

(11,885 posts)Trump's insecurities are very obvious, and he's jealous of anyone being loved and respected. World leaders are laughing at stupid Trump, and even his White House staff and others close to him are laughing at him too according to Bolton and many others. I've always thought highly of JT , and how well spoken and respectful of others he is, things trump only wishes he had. Canadians picked a real winner. We need one here now badly.

(9,426 posts)sense of humor. Remember when he brought a gift to tRump? It was a photo of tRump's grandpa's bordello in Canada. That is where the tRump fortune got its start. Selling women. The entire family has chosen women who need to be paid since then. Eric's wife plus Jr.'s girlfriend are each paid $15,000 monthly by Parscale's Pac. I wonder how much the first naked "lady" is paid monthly?
