Chris Uhlmann of Australia Broadcasting Corporation sums up Trump’s performance at the G20 Summit better than anyone else.
ABC’s political editor Chris Uhlmann didn’t pull any punches when he delivered his wrap-up of Trump’s appearance at the conference, calling him an “uneasy, lonely, awkward figure†who was left “isolated and friendless†with “no desire and no capacity to lead the worldâ€. …

Uhlmann also pointed out that given the uncomfortable divide between himself and the most of the other G20 leaders on the Paris Climate Accord, a “deft†President would have found a topic with which to rally them.
“And he had the perfect one: North Korea’s missile tests,†the reporter explained.
“Other leaders expected it [a statement condemning it], they were prepared to back it, but it never came.â€
At the end of the two minute video, Uhlmann provided a chilling prediction for the future under this US President.
“Donald Trump has pressed fast forward on the decline of the United States as a global leader. Some will cheer the decline of America, but I think we’ll miss it when it’s gone — and that’s the biggest threat to the values of the West, which he claims to hold so dear.â€
