Summary
Trump is back from a BIG summit with Japan! And what did he accomplish? NOT MUCH. He praised Japan's rivals, bashed Joe Biden and got NOTHING done. What a waste of time (AND taxpayer's money!)
We talk to John Bennett from Roll Call, Matt Fuller from HuffPost, and Lauren Gambino from The Guardian!
