"President Donald Trump arrived late to Wednesday’s G7 summit, crossed the room where world leaders were already seated and had started their meeting, and offered an excuse before joining the group: “I’m the boss.”

According to The Daily Beast, Trump’s colleagues “laughed awkwardly” at his “crass joke.”

President Emmanuel Macron, who is hosting the meeting in Évian-les-Bains, France, greeted President Trump by saying, “Well, hello.” Trump — who was nearly one hour late — turned and faced the table before making his declaration."

Democrats and Republicans alike. And the majority of Republicans in Congress continue to support this.

Hastily borrowed from the googles and might have been said by King Henry II in 1170 regarding Archbishop Thomas Becket: "Will no one rid me of this turbulent priest?"
