Donald Trump Destroying International Relations

Donald Trump is now at the G-7 Summit in France, and is totally upending international relations, as he has been doing for two and a half years.

He has promoted a trade war against China, which will destroy the international economy, and cause a worldwide depression.

He has threatened France on trade as well.

He has been belligerent toward Denmark over the issue of Greenland acquisition, totally preposterous.

He has ignored the missile tests of Kim Jong Un of North Korea, undermining the security of South Korea and Japan.

He has embraced the crazy British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, who is much like him, and is in process of destroying the United Kingdom, which has existed since the Act of Union in 1714.

He has proposed that the G-7 readmit Russia, even though Putin invaded Crimea, taking part of the Ukraine away in 2014, the reason for Russia being expelled.

He accepts the Brazilian government of Jair Bolsonaro ignoring the Amazon fire disaster, which undermines the environment for the entire planet.

He is working to provoke a war against Iran, and yet trusts the Saudi Arabian government of Mohammed bin Salman, which killed the journalist Jamal Khashoggi.

Clearly, Donald Trump is a threat to the international order in so many ways, embracing authoritarians and rebuking democratic allies we have had since World War II!
