President Trump is currently 12 hours ahead of Washington already attending Monday meetings.
According to the schedule from the White House, a meeting with the Prime Minister of Singapore, Lee Hsien Loong, will be the highest-profile meeting of the day. The two will meet at the Instana Palace for a one-on-one meeting.
After that, he’s going to have a meet and greet at the U.S. Embassy in Singapore. (Continued Below)
The President took to twitter in Singapore focusing in on trade issues, which recently stemmed from the G-7 summit in Canada, after Canadian Prime Minister Justin Truedeau stabbed President Trump in the back. He’s not afraid to stand up for America and call it like he see’s it.
The President tweeted, “Fair Trade is now to be called Fool Trade if it is not Reciprocal. According to a Canada release, they make almost 100 Billion Dollars in Trade with U.S. (guess they were bragging and got caught!). Minimum is 17B. Tax Dairy from us at 270%. Then Justin acts hurt when called out!”

Next, President Trump said, “Why should I, as President of the United States, allow countries to continue to make Massive Trade Surpluses, as they have for decades, while our Farmers, Workers & Taxpayers have such a big and unfair price to pay? Not fair to the PEOPLE of America! $800 Billion Trade Deficit…”

President Trump went onto to say, “And add to that the fact that the U.S. pays close to the entire cost of NATO-protecting many of these same countries that rip us off on Trade (they pay only a fraction of the cost-and laugh!). The European Union had a $151 Billion Surplus-should pay much more for Military!”

In his fourth tweet, the President said, “Germany pays 1% (slowly) of GDP towards NATO, while we pay 4% of a MUCH larger GDP. Does anybody believe that makes sense? We protect Europe (which is good) at great financial loss, and then get unfairly clobbered on Trade. Change is coming!”

Lastly the President said, “Sorry, we cannot let our friends, or enemies, take advantage of us on Trade anymore. We must put the American worker first!”
