Comey tweets support for Canada after Trump attacks Trudeau

BY JACQUELINE THOMSEN - 06/10/18 08:21 AM EDT

Former FBI Director James Comey tweeted his support for Canada late Saturday after President Trump attacked Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.




Comey has been highly critical of Trump since the president fired him last year, including in his new book “A Higher Loyalty.”

Trump attacked Trudeau in a pair of tweets Saturday after leaving the Group of Seven (G-7) summit, claiming that Trudeau made “false statements” at a new conference and calling the prime minister “very dishonest and weak.”

Trump also said the U.S. would not endorse the joint communique signed by the other G-7 member countries, after Trudeau had said all countries signed it, and appeared to threaten more tariffs against Canada.

He remains a self righteous, sanctimonious sack of shit. A veritable prig's prig.

He seems to feel some guilt/remorse - there was that "mildly nauseous" comment.
