    Who cares about MickeyMouse G7?

    Who cares about MickeyMouse G7?

    How much power does the China and Russia-led SCO wield?
    9 June 2018China hosts the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO), as G7 leaders meet in Canada.

    Russia is also a major player in the Eurasian group of eight countries, which includes some of the largest populations in the world.

    Besides China and Russia, the other countries are Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan - as well as the newest members India and Pakistan.

    Iran and Afghanistan are among the four so-called "observer states" which are seeking full membership.

    At a time of mixed messaging from US President Donald Trump, how important is the SCO?

    Apparently, you do...
    Caring too much to the point of being easily distracted by the same controllers.

    The dumbing down continues, even among particular circles that consider themselves something they're not.

    Everything you know is wrong.

    Trump says US won't sign G7 joint statement, leaving summit in chaos

    US President Donald Trump has thrown two days of diplomatic talks into chaos, insulting Canada's Prime Minister and tweeting that the United States would not endorse the joint communique that leaders from the Group of Seven nations negotiated at this weekend's summit.


    Trump accused Prime Minister Justin Trudeau of making "false statements," and threatened new automobile tariffs in a series of tweets he posted after leaving the talks in Charlevoix, Quebec.
    "Based on Justin's false statements at his news conference, and the fact that Canada is charging massive Tariffs to our U.S. farmers, workers and companies, I have instructed our U.S. Reps not to endorse the Communique as we look at Tariffs on automobiles flooding the U.S. Market!" Trump wrote.
    He went on to personally criticize Trudeau, whom he said "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 added: "Very dishonest & weak. Our Tariffs are in response to his of 270% on dairy!"

    Why Canadian milk infuriates Donald Trump

    Why Canadian milk infuriates Donald Trump

    That article gives a good background what Trumps on about but :

    As the trade minister, Chrystia Freeland, has pointed out, trade data flatly contradicts the claim that Canadian supply management is ravaging US dairyland – either because it unfairly restricts imports or because it dumps a subsidized surplus in US markets. In 2016, Canada imported dairy products from the US worth five times more than the small amount it exported there. “I would call that a pretty good deal,” she told the House of Commons.

    Dairy tariffs are based on US milk not meeting lower Canadian requirements for minimum or maybe zero levels of growth hormones in milk. Hormone reduction/ban is for the benefit of the Canadian public.

    Nothing to stop US producers on the border reducing the amount of hormones in their milk.

    Donald Chump , as I misheard him called the other day on an Asian TV station, is like the guy in the bar who starts a discussion so he can win it. Regardless of the opinions of others or the facts.
    Better to think inside the pub, than outside the box?
    I apologize if any offence was caused. unless it was intended.
    You people, you think I know feck nothing; I tell you: I know feck all

    On another note, anyone see what's off in this pic?



    Trudeau is 6'2" and Trump has claimed he is 6'3" which famously makes him just below the cut-off for being obese yet he's clearly shorter than Trudeau which means he is officially a fat cnut.

    Doesn't matter 5/8ths of feck all though really, just another thing the narcissist has lied about.

    He looks understandably dismayed, like he would rather be somewhere else.

    Possibly and true but his stated height comes from his recent White House physical indicating that he's even prepared to lie about that.
