‘They’re all laughing at you’: Trump ridiculed for claiming US economy is ‘the talk of everyone’ at G7
President Donald Trump used his favorite social media platform to share his thoughts from Biarritz, France, where he’s attending the G7 economic summit.
“Our great economy is the talk of everyone!” Trump claimed, one day after U.S. markets plummeted as his trade war with China escalated.
With many worrying Trump is causing a recession, the president was brutally mocked for his tweet.
Here’s some of what people are saying:
Uh huh.
Most of the REAL TALK is behind your back, Spanky.
They're all laughing at you.
Not at us. Just YOU.#G7Summit pic.twitter.com/S86gmHfB1D— BrooklynDad_Defiant! (@mmpadellan) August 24, 2019

If it is so great, then why do you keep bitching about wanting a massive rate cut and delaying tariffs for the "holiday season"

Just because you talk to everyone about it, that does not make it the talk of everyone.🤪

GOP leader McCarthy swats aside Fiona Hill’s national security testimony debunking his Ukraine conspiracy theory
On Thursday, during one of the final scheduled impeachment hearings this week, National Security Council official Fiona Hill demolished President Donald Trump's conspiracy theory that Ukraine, rather than Russia, meddled in the 2016 election, calling it a "fictional narrative" and noting that it originated with the Kremlin itself.
But in conversation with reporters, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) flatly disbelieved Hill's testimony, and insisted he still held onto the theory.
House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy told me that he was not going to lose any GOP votes during impeachment.

Nicolle Wallace breaks down the impeachment moment ‘women will be talking about for years’
MSNBC anchor Nicolle Wallace on Thursday highlighted one of the key moments from the impeachment inquiry testimony from Dr. Fiona Hill.
"Often when women show anger, it’s not fully appreciated. It’s often, you know, pushed onto emotional issues perhaps, or deflected on other people," Hill testified.
Here's Fiona Hill on why she thinks Sondland misunderstood her anger — and how women's anger is often viewed, more generally: "It's not fully appreciated. It's often pushed off onto emotional issues." pic.twitter.com/AsMR3A9InI

Mulvaney lawyer denies Mick was ‘so heavily involved’ — despite his White House briefing room confession
Acting White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney was referenced multiple times during Dr. Fiona Hill's testimony Thursday, but Mulvaney's lawyer said he doesn't understand why.
"We have no idea why Ms. Hill believes Mr. Mulvaney was so heavily involved, especially in light of Ambassador Sondland’s contrary testimony," said Fox News reporter Chad Pergram, quoting a statement from Robert Driscoll.

As former federal prosecutor Joyce Vance pointed out, Hill recalled during her testimony how angry she was about Sondland not briefing her. She said that after hearing his testimony Wednesday and learning he was briefing Mike Pompeo, John Bolton, Mulvaney and President Donald Trump. She then decided he was correct-they had separate missions and Sondland was on a domestic political errand.
