Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is popular, accomplished, and he’s likely to be judged very highly by history. United States faux-President Donald Trump is despised, nearing his ouster, and guaranteed to be remembered by history as a traitor who died in prison. Now that the two are set to meet at the G7 Summit in order to negotiate the trade deals that Trump keeps lying about, suffice it to say that things aren’t going particularly well on Trump’s end.

Yesterday we learned that Trump falsely accused Canada of having burned down the White House in the War of 1812. Everyone who has ever passed an eighth grade history exam knows that it was the British who famously burned the White House. Canada didn’t even come into existence as an independent nation until several decades later. But as it turns out, that insult was merely a warm up act.

This evening, Trump launched into what can only be described as a jealous rage, tweeting “Prime Minister Trudeau is being so indignant, bringing up the relationship that the U.S. and Canada had over the many years and all sorts of other things.” This illegitimate fake “president” is now so desperate to slam his fist down on the chess board in the hope that the pieces might magically land in his favor, he’s now engaging in a junior high school level attack on the popular leader of one of the United States’ closest allies. Actually, more than one.

Donald Trump is also attacking French President Emmanuel Macron on Twitter, while sniping at British Prime Minister Theresa May behind the scenes. He’s trying to start a fight with as many U.S. allies as he can. As he gets inched closer to prison, he seems to think his only way out of this is to create such huge problems for the United States, we somehow forget to lock him in a cell for his crimes.
