I'm a Trump supporter and Republican. You can give me your downvotes. The G20 is supposed to be a meeting between leaders from the top 20 most powerful countries in the world.

Part of the reason Roger Ailes co-founded Fox News was so that he could work to make sure that what happened to Nixon could never happen to another Republican president.
