Trump says he rejected a meeting with Canada that Canada says it never requested
Source: USA Today
President Donald Trump said Wednesday that he rejected a meeting with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau during the United Nations General Assembly, but a spokeswoman for Trudeaus government disputed that the meeting had ever been requested.
Yeah, I did, Trump said during a press conference in New York when asked if he has rejected the meeting.
But a spokeswoman for Trudeau, Eleanore Catenaro, said Canada never requested the meeting in the first place.
No meeting was requested, she said in a statement Trumps press conference. We don't have any comment beyond that.

He just doesn't care that he's a known liar, or he may believe lying about something makes it a truth somehow.

The representative he doesn't like is Chrystia Freeland, our Foreign Minister. Of course he doesn't like her. She's a woman with more brains than him and more power than he thinks any woman should have. It diminishes his manhood.

- help, get me out of here, he's nuts -
Here's Trudeau's handshake, with a comment from a YouTube poster:

Trudeau's an amateur boxer, so Donny tiny hands met his match. He probably realized very quickly that Trudeau could/would deliberately overpower him, if he kept insisting on "winning" the moment, instead of being respectable.
The boxer in Trudeau stepped into Tiny Hands' body and squared up to him, fully. He also neutralized him by holding firmly to his upper arm. Checkmate.

Trudeau beat him the first time they met, AND he's far, far better looking. Trump can't overcome his jealousy and pettiness.
