The Washington Post's editorial board on Monday knocked President Trump feud with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau following the Group of Seven (G-7) summit.

The editorial board criticized Trump trade adviser Peter Navarro's comment Sunday that there is a "special place in hell" for Trudeau, a remark he made after the summit ended.

Trudeau said at a news conference after Trump left the summit Saturday that Trump's decision to impose tariffs on Canadian steel and aluminum on the basis of national security was "kind of insulting."

The remarks angered Trump, prompting him to tear into Trudeau as "weak" and "dishonest" in a tweet, while his aides harshly criticized the Canadian leader during appearances on the Sunday morning talk shows.

1. Special place in hell for democratic leaders and a special place in his heart for dictators...WTF?

Are Republicans and the corporate media never going to call out the 🤡 and his 🦊 🤡 3 ring circus? Is this how a once decent democratic country like Germany turned into a world monster?

The parallels are frightening, the lack of protection by corporate media is she caking and amazing.

2. He couldn't say that to Trudeau's face, but watch Trump: he'll fawn all over Kim. . . . nt

5. "Russian collusion?" Doesn't really matter because trump's goals & actions are the same as Putin's.

6. Disturbing

It is disturbing that Trump is picking a fight with Canada, one of our closest allies. Russia is run by an Authoritarian Regime and Oligarchs, yet Trump wants them back in the G7/G8. So, Trump is kowtowing to Russia, but has a problem with Canada.

I find it to be astounding that Trump is alienating Canada and also our European Allies, yet has no problems with Dictators like Putin. Trump is hostile to Democracies, yet friendly to Dictators and Authoritarian Regimes. Disturbing.

7. "kind of insulting" is understated to the point of being a euphemism. Trudeau showed

remarkable restraint. But then Canadian sare known for being very polite, in contrast to other people we know.

8. No fucking shit

It's obvious what this despicable asshole wanted to do from the start. He's a fucking Russian agent who's in deep to the corrupt mob and needs to sell us out to pay his fucking bills. He's a con artist, a liar, and a worthless piece of shit whose family sits there on their entitled asses and rapes our payroll, making fucking millions. Meanwhile, Pukes passively watch this robber baron do all of this shit and do nothing. Fuck you, Lyin' Ryan. Fuck you, Nurtle the Turtle. And fuck you, you ugly Ted Cruz cocksucker. You're all going down.

Unfortunately, so will the economy. It always does while these assholes are in charge. Been there, done that...for almost forty years. Pukes eat shit. Dems always bail out these piece of shit who argue "Ooh, Democrats are adding so much to the economy!"

Fuck you, I mean fuck you.
