President Trump Calls PM Justin Trudeau Two-Faced
President Trump called Canada’s Prime Minister Justin Trudeau “two-faced,” when a reporter asked Trump if he saw the video of Trudeau talking about him to other world leaders.
After calling him “two-faced,” Trump added, “And honestly, with Trudeau, he’s a nice guy. I find him to be a very nice guy but the truth is I called him out on the fact that he’s not paying 2% (to NATO) and I guess he’s not very happy about it…”
You got to love how President Trump calls it as he sees it, instead of doing it behind his back like childish Trudeau did.

Trudeau admitted he was speaking about Trump, and claimed the moment that made “his team’s jaw drop” was when President Trump announced the location for the next year’s Group of Seven summit at Camp David.
“Last night I made a reference to the fact that there was an unscheduled press conference before my meeting with President Trump and I was happy to take part of it but it was certainly notable, and I’ve had a number of good conversations with the president over the course of this day and yesterday,” said Trudeau.
Earlier on Tuesday, President Trump put Trudeau on the spot during a press conference, and Trudeau did not have all the answers. Trump asked Trudeau how much Canada was spending on NATO defense.
