Trump backed out of G7 statement to avoid looking weak before Kim summit, aide says
WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump pulled out of the Group of 7 joint communique Saturday night because he wanted to avoid a show of weakness before his summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, a White House official said Sunday.
Trump agreed with the language in the communique from the summit in Canada Friday and Saturday, but took offense at criticism of U.S. tariffs by Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau at his news conference after Trump left early.
The president "is not going to let a Canadian prime minister push him around ... on the eve of this," top White House economic adviser Larry Kudlow said on CNN's "State of the Union."
"He is not going to permit any show of weakness on the trip to negotiate with North Korea, nor should he," Kudlow said. "Kim must not see American weakness."
The decision to back out of the communique was "in large part" because of the upcoming North Korea summit, Kudlow said.

Kudlow you ass licking fuckface that behavior does not make Trump look tough.
Here's a prediction. Kim Jong Un will butter Trump up to make him feel important then stab him in the back.
