President Trump arrived late to a meeting on gender equality on Saturday morning at the G7 summit in Quebec, Canada.

According to pool reports, Trump arrived 17 minutes late to the breakfast meeting.

The meeting had been scheduled to begin at 8 a.m., but due to the late arrivals Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau didn't begin speaking until 8.14 a.m. "Any stragglers will come in as they arrive," he said.

Trump completely missed Trudeau's remarks, only arriving as Isabelle Hudon, the Canadian ambassador to France, began speaking.

According to the Toronto Star, his arrival caused quite a commotion due to security workers having to clear a path through a crowd of journalists, many with large camera equipment.

The clicks of the journalists' cameras as Trump arrived late "almost drowned out Hudon’s remarks," the Star wrote.

The White House didn't immediately respond to a request for information on Saturday about the cause of the president's tardiness.

Still, the visual symbolism was...not good.

Trump also looked a little rumpled. Not a class act for the leader of the Free World.
 
You got to be kidding ... :lol: ... gender equality again ... :lamo
 
This is great:

I never promoted a woman because she was a woman, I never demoted a woman because she was a woman. My issue is what do you do, what do you produce, how do you interrelate to the rest of the business. I don’t think there’s ever been a, ‘We gotta get more ***** on the block", OK?

No big deal...seems the Canadian snowflakes had the topic covered.

Me? I'd probably be sitting there eating my breakfast...half listening...trying not to yawn.

I am reminded of the young lady in ANIMAL HOUSE who just witnessed the eating habits of John Belushi who proclaims ..."that boy is a P... I...G".
 
Shocking I tell you shocking! It's just Trudeau. No one really cares.

The talk was about women. Trump doesn't care about women because he's a misogynist. Worse than that, he bragged on tape about walking in on naked teenaged girls & grabbing women by their p***y. I'm actually surprised that he didn't skip this meeting.

Don't be surprised if Trump's not invited to any more of these meetings. He's not wanted, he doesn't want to be there, why bother? He could have got a couple rounds in, and a photo-op in Bullpasture, Montana.

I don't think the free world considers him their leader in any way shape or form.
The free world is moving on without us and our next president is going to have to be one hell of a diplomat to repair the damages done.
