President Donald Trump, with House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy of Calif., speaks with reporters while in air en route to Andrews Air Force Base Saturday, May 30, 2020, in flight. WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump said Saturday he will postpone a meeting of Group of 7 nations until fall and called for an expansion of the group’s membership because he considers it an outdated group that doesn’t properly represent what’s taking place in the world.

The G7 members are Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom and the United States. Trump singled out Russia, Australia, South Korea and India as possible additions. The leaders of the world’s major economies were slated to meet in the U.S. this year, but the coronavirus outbreak has hobbled those plans.

Aha!!!:(

Does he think these guys want to meet a dictator?

(Flush)

His move was self motivated to regain some semblance of being in control. Markel of Germany saw through his gambit and rejected it outright

He’s worried about a meeting We may not have a country by September!!! 105,000 dead from COVID19 !! realDonaldTrump has no soul!!!

Yeah because everyone RVSPed HELL NO to Trump’s G7 invitation.

This is a ploy to show him with world leaders before an election. Make him seem grown up and in big boy pants. Don’t fall for it. Have without him, doubt he adds much to the debate anyway. Or postpone until after the election- when they’ll elect a grown up.

Basically wait until elections and 'invite' Russia to G8 for the old quid pro quo.

No one is coming. So the meeting is postponed.

They weren’t coming here doofus don

What is going on?

The world leaders rejected Trump invitation. World order is changing.

Haha! Nobody wanted to come to his shit show!

It’s called “campaigning.”

Umm the other G7 leaders postponed the meeting by desciding to NOT attend.

G7 is effectively cancelled, nobody wants to attend, and trump won’t be around in the fall! ResignTrump!

Sad! No one is coming to the party.

Awww. Poor little rich boy. No one wants to come to his party. Like a Real Housewives episode.

I’ve got news for you America. Merkel just told Trump to stuff his G7 meeting and said no Germany would not be attending and everyone else pulled the plug on realDonaldTrump He didn’t cancel it, he was told nobody was coming. Embarrassing Incompetence from America

Sounds like the G7 (or as Frump would prefer G6 ) should have meeting with Australia India and South Korea.. and leave the whining man baby crying foul..

he should delay it till after realDonaldTrump is voted out of office

LOL. Angela said no.

Well, he did not postpone at first. He wanted everybody to convene, when for Merkel said she should not attend because of the corona policies. Then he changed his mind. Meanwhile humiliating the G7 as 'irrelevant' and pursuing his Russia agenda by wanting to add Putin again.

No one wants to come

Typical Trump calls for Russia to be invited to distract from the fact that he had to cancel because world leaders declined to come.

Intelligence test: Which country does not fit: Russia, Australia, South Korea or India?

🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱

When you’re past your sell by date and you’re sitting on the shelf waiting to be binned

Fuck the assehole

STabbytosavit Next fall, he’ll have nothing to do with the G7. Moron.

Again. He didn't decide Both Canada and Germany refused due too Pandemic. Stop making it sound like he knows what he's doing.

dsupervilleap Sociopath is lying. Angela Merkel can't attend, Emanuel Macron didn't commit, so he postponed the summit. He want photo op for his campaign! Hypocrite, bragging 'America first' now he want more countries at this summit. The only one he really want is his lover boss Putin!

He wants Russia back in!

Angela Merkel rules! She said no! Trump backs down. He can't deal with strong women.

They all said bugger off

In other words, nobody wanted to come. So to save face he's 'postponing' it.

The Chief of police in MN said looting was done by white nationalists. Trump may want Marshall Law to distract from all his failures. Trump bankrupted America morally, racially, financially, leaving America literally dying and on fire. Now, he runs away to golf and tweet.

This is the equivalent of postponing your birthday party because nobody wanted to come

Russian tool

His Russian friend can’t attend the g7 so he’s making his own g summit.

TRUMP'S DETERMINED 2 DESTROY AMERICAN DEMOCRACY! HIS PLAN HAS ALWAYS BEEN 2 CREATE AN 'ALTERNATIVE WORLD' WHERE THE ONLY TRUTHS ARE 'TRUMP TRUTHS' & HE'S GOT MANY 'TRUMP ENABLERS' ENLISTED 2 HELP HIM SCHEME 2 CARRY IT OUT. AMERICA RISE! VOTE 2 GET HIM OUT!

Still wants to get his buddy Vlad back in. Why not? Here's why, THEY ATTACKED THE FREAKIN UNITED STATES!!!

RSVP - regretz

Biden will be a much better host than IMPOTUS, that is certain.👋🏾👋🏾

45: “Hey everyone! Party at my place” Everyone: “... No thanks I’m washing my hair that night.” 45: “you know what? I know everyone is dying to come, but I’m going to postpone until it is a better time for me.”

MAGA .. 'I can't breath'

That's probably because all the leaders declined his invitation.... I know Merkel did. This is him saving face.

No leader wanted to be seen with a big LOSER

Bury the lede about Trump unilaterally inviting Putin back

Because Angela Merkel rebuffed him.

He wants Russia but not China, who has the 2nd largest economy in the world? Russia justifiably lost its place in the G8 because of its annexation of Crimea. I don't remember them doing anything to rectify that.

Okay Vladmeister, did you order our GOAT POTUS to postpone the G7 and get you back in the group? C’mon, fess up!

Let’s see what happens.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

There already is expansion. Its called the UN

Let him know we saw the denied requests to be in his presence. And they probably wanna wait on a president to actually be in office. LiberateAmerica

There won't be another meeting,while he is in office. They will wait for Biden, as they should

No Donald. We’re not letting Putin into the treehouse he’s been trying to chop down.

Let’s be real they don’t want him there

Gee, I wonder who he’s going to want admitted? Such a mystery. No one will ever be able to predict.

in 2 minutes mask making at home. Wonderful !

Because people said no.

Very good idea, NIGERIA will be one of the four new Entrants into the G7.

Knew before I read the article that Putin's puppet would want Russia back in. Maybe the rest of his list should include North Korea, Turkey, Brazil, and others who have leaders who love him above all else. The list is small though. Right now it is working as Group of 6.

Nobody wanted to attend in June, no one will want to attend in October.

No takers, turd?

Ah so bad for you. At least you won't be spreading more lies and the virus. Don't think it was just one country who wasn't coming.

Who does he want? Its Russia isn’t it.

Civil war in USA is coming, brace yourself

didn't they once have a G8 that included Russia?

This pig is killing our Country

IGNORETrumpOnTwitter IGNORETrumpOnTwitter IGNORETrumpOnTwitter IGNORETrumpOnTwitter IGNORETrumpOnTwitter IGNORETrumpOnTwitter

Maybe they should ask who made him the boss. Have it anyway, but to get in wear a mask.

Russias economy is about the same as TX and half of California, but it should be in the G7 while it continues to cause trouble around the world?

Let’s me guess; he is pushing for Russia to re-enter the group, again. In an election year, no less. No shame. PutinsPuppet

realDonaldTrump the orange turd is dlaying g7 cause reasonable leaders are cancelling the meeting

G7 isn't top of mind for most WORLD LEADERS.THEY'RE BUSY DEALING W GLOBAL PANDEMIC THAT WILL LIKELY RESURGE ACCORDING TO SCIENTISTS. CHANCELLOR MERKEL has ALREADY STATED SHE WOULD LIKELY NOT ATTEND. THAT'S A LEADER! NOT LIKE THE PANTYWASTE THE US HAS. ThePlumLineGS reedgalen

Makes it sounds like it was his decision

Gee, let’s add Russia. What an incredible surprise said absolutely no one in the room.

So Putin will be his “plus one”? 🤔

What if he held a party and no one RSVP’d?

Is English your 1st language.. what terrible grammar?

Inny, miny, miney, moe...

Yes, Nigeria need to be a part of G7

Back to let russia in? What do they have on him, is this what Flynn was referencing to when he said 'a lot of those russians expelled have information'.

After an article reported that Anglea Merkel declined the invitation. Ok trump!

Because no one wants to come. The shitbag.

8/26/19 (Trump's bid): 'US bid to readmit Vladimir Putin into G7 club roundly rejected'

Home alone G7

He's an F'n fool. He killed TPPP and now he's inviting the same countries he threw to the curb to attend to fight off China. He had it in the bag but because Obama did it, it had to be killed. He's a joke.

How humiliating. Merkel had said no, and will again in the fall. Any world leader of worth, and a bit of common sense, don’t want to be pictured with Trump as he starts to fall. Biden backchannels have already started. Why would the world waste their time on the loser?

Need to get that Russian and Indian 💵 into the laundromat.

Let’s just postpone it until after the election shall we? I mean what’s the rush besides a mandate to keep stroking dick biscuit’s ego?

He's not in charge of the G7 or anything else.

Haha. After the leader of the free world Merkel said she wouldn't come.

Postponing because no other leaders want to come to this country while he's in charge. He has a hard time standing because he's always spinning the truth.

World leaders do not desire an affiliation with USA anymore.

7/13/18: 'Mueller just indicted 12 Russian intelligence officers for hacking and leaking Democratic emails'

But he didn’t cancel the space launch or tee times? How to be a non leader.

Do we really care what he thinks?

Biden staff donate to group that pays bail in riot-torn MinneapolisCampaign staff for Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden are advertising their donations to a group that pays bail fees in Minneapolis after the city's police jailed people protesting the killing of a black man by a white police officer. Biden is a failure and all of these media-induced events over the last three months are merely hiding his inability to lead, much less speak coherently. It’s not hard to see the media manipulation. Wow, Biden's staff are bailing out white supremacists? You know Joe. He's very frivolous with your $$$.
