“Before I arrived in France, the Fake and Disgusting News was saying that relations with the 6 others countries in the G 7 are very tense, and that the two days of meetings will be a disaster,” Trump wrote on Twitter shortly before meeting UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson for a bilateral focused on trade.
