The poor will suffer more, not less, through his short-sightedness.

And when it comes, you will deny it.

When it comes he will have forgotten all about it, having found the next topic he can troll "pointy-headed liberals" with.

The G7 is the chance for the world's most influential leaders to get together plan and coordinate how the world's biggest economic, environmental and political challenges are dealt with, each leader and associated delegates negotiating the terms of those agreements in ways that benefit their constituents.
 
But it would seem our "president's" most pressing concern at the G7 was to negotiate for Putin being invited to the next one:

Putin, who interfered in our democratic process on Trump's behalf, and who Mitch McConnell has rolled out the welcome mat for him to do it again in 2020.

Yeah.  This is all totally normal stuff.

Remarkably, Trump’s performance behind closed doors managed to go even farther in pleading Putin’s case. “Trump’s extraordinary promotion of Putin proved to be the most tense disagreement,” reports the Washington Post, which adds that Trump’s fervent advocacy for Putin “was coolly received by other leaders at the gathering,” and that the meeting “went off the rails when Trump blasted leaders for not including Russia.”

Sources from inside the meeting tell the Post Trump’s presence was tantamount to having Putin himself in the room:

But having such a forceful advocate for an authoritarian leader inside the room of democracies profoundly shaped the overall tone of the summit, one senior official said.

“The consequence is the same as if one of the participants is a dictator,” the official said. “No community of like-minded leaders who are pulling together.”

“Colonialiist mind sets like you“, says Our resident champion of profiting off ramping up apartheid against the poor and the brown.

Red sure is flexible, even for a worm.

Yeah, the "colonialist mind-set" was certainly rich.  That is what sent me to the WSJ to figure out where the fuck this bullshit is coming from.

The " Colonialist Mind-Set' was quoted in at least 7 news sources that i read, CNBC,CBS, Reuters, Newsweek, Trib.com, WSJ.com,NYT.com.
Sorry your research is so limited.

Bolsonaro has a lot of work to do to clean up Brazil after the long run of socialists that , surprise!, left the country totally mismanaged by Government.
He is now in the midst of privatizing not just to make some money but to spread free-market ideas. When citizens are freed from over-regulation and allowed to grow economically they make better stewards of the environment.

You are an Apt Pupil (IMDb it), Redward.

You disgorgement of poppycock is as poetic as it is untrue.

Yes, the colonialist line was a quote from Bolsonaro.  You did not present it as such.  Like everything else you posted on the subject, you posted thoughts and facts compiled in a single WSJ op-ed and passed them off as your own.

When citizens are freed from over-regulation and allowed to grow economically they make better stewards of the environment.

The idea that less regulation leads to better environmental stewardship is so thoroughly disproven by basic history that you won't see even most Conservatives put it in such stark terms (its usually about "economic growth trade-offs.")   Its the kind of thing you hear from someone who read a WSJ op-ed once then oversimplifies the argument.

Dumb shit is the best currency in MAGA land.

A fish rots from the head and Red is somewhere near the lower belly, but he’s already stinking somewhat awful and it’s clearly getting worse.

GTFOOHWTBS!

If I’m a member of the world’s leading powers ima form a “Coalition of the Willing” to go put out the fucking fire.

Folks don’t like it? Tough.

This a real life WMD going off right now and it’s gonna fuck up the whole world!

Fuck your sovereignty! I’m coming in full tilt to save my ass because if you won’t save our collective ass I will!

Trust me, you’ll thank me later.

Yeah, why can't they lie to their citizens, blow off environmental concerns, and support the illegal territorial ambitions of hostile authoritarians like Trump!  Now there is a real man!

It might behoove you to learn to read.
