I am just speculating, of course, but I imagine that this was not unplanned. I imagine that Trump was told that the popular opinion was that he was fleeced at the first summit, and he was determined to make sure it didn't look that way this time. He probably had a list of demands, and, if they weren't met unconditionally, he was going to walk.

All theater, but at least he had the right performance this time.
