G7 Participants Brace For Potential Trump Drama | Velshi & Ruhle | MSNBC

As the Washington Post puts it, one of France's main objectives as host of this weekend's Group of Seven summit is to minimize the chances that President Trump will blow it up. Chris Jansing is joined by former Admiral James Stavridis, former New Jersey Governor Christine Todd Whitman, and former Deputy Assistant Secretary of State Philippe Reines to break down what we can expect from this year’s G7.

G7 Participants Brace For Potential Trump Drama | Velshi & Ruhle | MSNBC

    1. @Kim Brooks ….. Without question lolol, I strongly agree with you while changing the locks at the white house in case he sneaks back into the USA as a *illegal immigrant dreamer child* lol.

    2. @Sassa Gaki … So true, I like how you are very witty. But a lot of Europeans are and I assume you are from Germany. I am a duel Citizen, British American with living in both Countries since birth. So kinda a mutt but lolol, most people in Europe are way more witty than Americans I feel lol. Nothing against pure Americans as I love this country but I hate Trump now.

    3. @Ali Murna …. Being a duel Citizen as mentioned and I actually lived since birth half my life in England, I know what you mean. I was thinking on moving to Canada being raised of course in the EU but I opted not too. Trump is destroying America without question and bad but his mistakes with the tariffs and trade wars will effect the world unfortunately including Canada so do not be shocked when it hits home.

    4. @Florida Crypto R
      English/ American , poor thing, you can’t get away from the crasy blondes huh ?
      (Jonhson/Trump)😳

    1. @B.J Cameron Gee, is that what will happen!
      Or maybe someone could try to salvage the TPP,
      meant to deal with this…. And Paris Accord …..
      And Iran nuclear deal….. Sharia Law doesn’t
      have the scary effect it used to.
      I think you’d like that model for US, really. Yes.

  1. Trump is known for making disasters. And always getting in someone else’s business. And he doesn’t know when to close his mouth either.

    1. @Cha lin he is a disaster. He is not God he is not the chosen one and he is not a king. And if he keep playing he is going to end up just like Pharaoh in the Bible

    1. It’s funny because he’s trolling you leftwing loonies and he ain’t lying. If you are lucky , you can almost see him on the jumbotron outside of his rallies.

    2. @trainwreck told ya Trump does nothing but lie or throw drama queen tantrums attacking others like a whiney child….Trump isn’t trolling anyone… he’s making a fool out of himself… and the world laughs….I mean, seriously…. isn’t it pathetic when your only supporters are the low tier trash of society, criminals, terrorists, racists anti Americans? No intelligent, respected, successful people support Trump…. and no one respects him either.

  2. We don’t have a president. We are stuck with a crazy, traitorous, King of Israel that loves dictators and apartheid states.

    1. @mary jones I commend you for your efforts! I’m not religious & do not believe in prayer. I understand & agree with most of what you are saying. However, convention does not work with Mentally ill Authoritarian leaders. Finally, I hope time is on your side!!

    2. @Dave Moore ty so much. then just kind thoughts and hopes will also be appreciated 🙂
      it is incredibly nerve-wracking for us here, and many are terribly depressed. yes, it is incredibly dangerous for us and for the world, but it is getting closer and closer to our freedom day. we have a few fail-safes of which i believe trump is yet unaware. and me too! we may also need mental health counseling by the time we are finally free, lol. for my part, i depend on our late-night comedians (satirists extraordinaire) and the community that has developed in the comments sections of their videos to help keep my spirits up. they help to keep us sane while we battle on.

    1. @Brewz Dude Katie doesn’t know about Africa & ruskys?
      Oh, dear. Bad news for Americans wanting to be
      relevant…..🙏

    2. @Brewz Dude lol. America is dying on the world stage by design. You have no idea the war Trump is waging right now. He is destroying every pillar of the Liberal World Order. I haven’t seen a single news station talk about him leaving Brenton woods and telling countries to start protecting their trade routes, which is the biggest new story of the year if not the decade. Ever since China came out with BRI and declared they want their own hegemony outside of the world order the USA has started to withdraw. No point funding your rivals. Trump should finish strangling the WTO by the end of the year.

      BTW Russia is dying, no one is going to learn their language. Their demographics are going down the toilet.

    3. @morgana marvel Don’t really care to be relevant. We get blamed for not helping, get blamed for helping. Better to let the world forget that helping was an option.

    1. @Harold Cox I think you would feel safer over at a Fox channel Princess, they will give you the news the way you like it.

    2. @Sam Brenna I would say the same thing if it was Obama these reporters are not supposed to put their personnel spin on things. You Sam are a clown.

    3. @Harold Cox You are right, reporters shouldnt put their personnel spin on things, however when you speak of tRumps actions, and words… thats not opinion its fact…. and the fact is, on a global stage, this guy is a joke. They dread having to endure a moment of time with him, and they laugh at him… remember them all laughing at him? Maybe that wasnt shown on Fox. It was however shown around the world.

    4. @Dawn-Leigh Werenka I did not speak of Trumps actions, he is a man we all have flaws. I was just bringing to light the programming and propaganda. Whether it is MSNBC, Fox ,CNN or any other network it is wrong to not be objective. All of these networks are guilty of being prejudicial. If they called out both sides that would be permissible. They do not that is the problem.

    5. @Dawn-Leigh Werenka This isn’t exactly true. If you watch the videos its not so bad. For example, the picture they show at 1;36 has an identical twin. Two pictures, almost exactly the same taken seconds apart and only one went viral. If you find the other picture you will understand why the one the media wanted to show you went viral. G20 was similar, they posted a video of people not laughing at his jokes but if you watch the whole video its a differently story.

      Trump isn’t a joke to world leaders, hes worse than that to them. He is a joke to the people but that is only because they don’t understand the damage hes doing.

  3. Of course the G-7 leaders are bracing themselves. They know that for a 2nd time, they are about to come face to face with a mentally impaired sociopath with every character flaw known to mankind.

    1. @Daisy Elmir Agolf Tweetler is the best name Ive seen in awhile! Thank you for this! Made my night!!

    2. @Dorian Shades of gray…Little Donald can’t even wipe himself properly, that’s what Ivanka is there for.

  4. F**king unbelievable! Leave Trump out of it like the spoiled brat that he is!!! What’s wrong with the world when they kowtow to a monster?!

    1. @hifijohn …while EU is an even bigger market ( even after Brexit) –
      but politically the EU often is way to split to speak up.

    2. @hung well Texas had the first fully green energy town in the USA. They are prime for water wind and sun, unlike the rest of the world. They will be leading America in green energy.

  5. His giant ego, surpassed only by his tiny brain…………

    He reminds me of that guy who said he ” Paid the wizard, to make himself invisible”, which is why he walked into a Bank and Robbed it and expected to get away, uncaught……… Yet he had expected to leave, with the money, he stole or had intended to steal……..

    $500…… well spent……..

  6. Potential?! It’s a sure bet there will be drama, why do people keep thinking anything’s going to be different?

  7. Trump thinks he can approach negotiations with sovereign nations like he did with petty criminals and shady businessmen when he was the slumlord of NYC.

    1. B – 2 You are right!
      Just look how Trump reacted when Denmark had the temerity to refuse his ‘request’ to sell Greenland to The USA, or did Trump want Greenland as part of HIS real estate ???

  8. Trump is despised by the rest of the G7. He is a buffoon and a bully. The USA is no longer respected.

    1. Toronto citizen. Just came home from France. Gone 2 months and believe me, we sre the laughing stock of the world😱

    2. Kenny Mcphaul I talk to people all over the world and not one person can understand how Trump became president. It doesn’t say much about Americans that enough of you voted for him. And it says even less about the Republicans that put him forward as the best person they had.

    3. @Toronto Citizen If you want to understand how Trump became President look up Peter Zeihan. Hes not pro Trump but ive seen him explain the reasons as to why Trump became President.

    4. @drumrboynoid That isn’t how parties work, they shift. They are currently shifting right now. The Republican party won’t die any time soon. Most people who claim so point to demographics but not how those demographics vote. While its true more conservatives are dying off, its also true that voters are turning conservative at a younger age then previous generations. Republicans have started embarrassing legal migration as 2nd generational immigrants vote more conservatively than their parents.

    1. @Espen Pettersen
      What ? Remember when he what ? Lowered the unemployment figures for black and hispanic or when he is fighting against China trade or when he sidestepped the EVIL democrats in their Russiagate attempts to string him up. I can’t wait for the declassification of intel on the guilty.

    2. @Dave Schultz HEE HEE HEE, YOU COMPARING OBAMA WITH Bitchborn Trump ? The guy cant’s even SPELL !! When Obama was president, not only was the economy good, he did it without cutting regulations that make our air and water worse.
      If he had stayed president, it would have kept going down….rump tells us that there is no recession on the horizons,
      while ordering his gov’t to take multiple desperation steps to delay a recession until after the election.
