When you’re as stupid and incompetent as Donald Trump, it helps to have the excuses lined up well in advance of your dismal failures.
Trump has a head-start on his face-plant in North Korea, where anyone who knows anything expects him to be buried like kimchi.
From The New York Times:
President Trump’s top economic adviser said on Sunday that Mr. Trump had pulled out of a joint statement with allies at the Group of 7 meeting over the weekend because a “betrayal” by the Canadian prime minister had threatened to make Mr. Trump appear weak before his summit meeting on Tuesday with North Korea’s leader.
The adviser, Larry Kudlow, said that Mr. Trump had no choice but to take the action after Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said in a news conference that Canada would not be pushed around by the United States on trade.
Mr. Trudeau “stabbed us in the back,” Mr. Kudlow said, by making his remarks after the president had already agreed to sign the joint statement and had left for his historic meeting with Kim Jong-un in Singapore.
“We joined the communiqué in good faith,” Mr. Kudlow said on CNN’s “State of the Union” program. “You just don’t behave that way, O.K.? It’s a betrayal.”
A betrayal? Is it? More so than trying to reward a rogue nation for invading and annexing another country’s territory?
Any chance Canada could invade and annex us? They could make Trump king of West Virginia. That sounds fair. And appropriate.
O Canada, your Mounties will be welcomed with candy and flowers, and we promise that Chuck Schumer will eventually grow hockey hair. Maybe Nancy Pelosi, too. We’ll see.
Whatever it takes.
Just please, make this nightmare stop.
