President Trump gave the E7 leaders an offer they’ll most definitely refuse: a complete abolition of all tariffs. I can just imagine an audible gasp from these blowhard hypocrites.
President Trump reportedly asked world leaders at the Group of Seven Summit on Friday to consider "no tariffs" at all amid growing tensions over the administration's trade moves.
Politico, citing officials who listened and took notes of the discussions, reported that Trump told assembled world leaders that “we should at least consider no tariffs, no barriers — scrapping all of it."
The newspaper reported that the idea was challenged by Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, who is hosting the summit in Quebec.
"What about subsidies?” the Canadian leader reportedly asked.
Politico reported that leaders present for the meeting took Trump's suggestion as largely rhetorical.
Yeah, that’s one way to dismiss it.

The United States of America finally has a leader who’s looking after our interest. We’ve gone decades having one president after another sell us out. No more! I have to admit, it was pretty bleak. I looked at candidate Trump as just another blowhard from New York City; boy was I wrong. President Trump knows how to negotiate without bending over and grabbing the ankles.
If you need proof that this man is a master negotiator take a look at the hornet’s nest he kicked over at the G7. These so-called European leaders are trade shocked. They don’t know what to do. More importantly, he’s sticking it to them on their stupid SJW issues. Here is how President Trump approached a meeting on “gender equality.”
On Saturday, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau sniped about "stragglers" after Trump was late to a breakfast session on gender equality. Trump left the summit early for Singapore, where he will meet North Korean leader Kim Jong Un next week.
One scene at the very beginning of the gathering of presidents and prime ministers of the biggest industrialized nations set the mood for facing the brash Trump.
He arrived at La Malbaie, the scenic luxury resort on the banks of the St. Lawrence River in Quebec, as the four European leaders and the two EU heads were huddled together in a room to coordinate their strategy. The noise of Trump's helicopter landing was so loud they had to stop talking for a while, in a scene one official compared to the opening from the U.S. television series M.A.S.H.
"The EU understands that the only way with Trump is strength," said one European official. "If you give in now, he will come back tomorrow for more."
One of President Trump’s strengths is calling out bullshit when he sees it. That’s why he skipped their climate change conference. I have to admit, I’m really loving this guy.
