'The last three days have been an unmitigated disaster for the president,' Scaramucci said in an interview about Trump at the G-7 Summit.
As Scaramucci highlighted, Trump was clearly at odds with fellow world leaders over the weekend during the G-7 Summit. The annual meeting between the leaders of wealthy democracies – the U.S., France, Germany, the United Kingdom, Canada, Italy and Japan – was overshadowed by trade tensions and an increasingly isolated American administration.
Ahead of and during the summit, Trump also suggested that Russia, which was formerly a member when the association was referred to as the G-8, should be invited to rejoin. Russia was kicked out of the group after it supported separatist rebels in Ukraine and annexed the Crimea peninsula back in 2014, leading to an ongoing civil war. European leaders are also concerned that under President Vladimir Putin, Russia has moved steadily away from democracy into increasingly authoritarian rule.
Trump has increasingly isolated the U.S. from its long-time allies over a range of issues. While the G-7 countries, and every country in the world besides the U.S., are working to implement the 2015 Paris Climate Accord, Trump has withdrawn from the agreement and pushed back against even accepting the well-established science pointing to man-made climate change.
