Most Americans didn't vote for this turd. But I'm so ashamed anyways, Earth.

 

[watershed]

I believe it. From everything we get in the news it seems like everyone around Trump are cowards.

 

[jambo]

you're welcome NAFTA

“I've been driving a Lincoln since long before anybody paid me to."

 

[KernelPanic]

Let's trade leaders for a week, Canada. As a bonus we'll lift the lumber tariffs and I promise we won't try to keep him afterwards. We just want the feel of a president even if only for a short while.

Hey you guys had a cool President for 8 years who did mic drops on stage while we had Harper with the personality of a telephone pole.

It's our turn to have a hip cool, leader.

 

[Cipherr]

The TRUE leader of the free world.

God this is so sad...

 

[InfiniDragon]

That makes Trudeau the real POTUS, right?

As an American I wish that this could be a thing so very badly. While no one in office is going to be perfect, Trudeau is a solid leader and a good person in and out of work... unlike who we got saddled with. >_>

[FairyD]

I can just imagine Trudeau thinking, "this isn't my fucking job man," while he has to do it anyway and cusses under his breath.

 

[Brawly Likes to Brawl]

I wish.

Have we tried just shaking keys in front of his face?

Isn't that what Fox & Friends is for?

 

[GamerSoul]

This is just... sad. It's like when your parents take some of those crappy school chocolate bars you're selling to work, but end up buying like 10 bars from the box themselves to make you feel better about yourself.

Canadians are too polite to cuss.

 

[gaugebozo]

Idk we, Americans, need to be taught the hard way for all of our fuck ups.

The disadvantaged Americans would get taught that lesson too.

 

[oatmeal]

man he looks like his dad in that picture

RIP Fidel

 

[Lexxism]

Lmao. There's now way this is true.

Most relatable world leader.

This really connects with me on a spiritual level

You know america isn't the only one affected by this right?

Well preserving NAFTA helps his country so it kind of is.

It's not Merkel's job to educate Trump either, but it seems the rest of the world has to band together here.

 

[Randolph Freelander]

I just want a world leader talking about Trump near a hot mic. Just one world leader. I can hope that they'll just blister the dude knowingly during an interview, but that's too much to expect. But unknowingly? Just one time. Please.

 

[Gero]

I wonder what Mexico has to say about this?? I'm willing to bet they are going to offer Canada something...

 

[Leeness]

I can just imagine Trudeau thinking, "this isn't my fucking job man," while he has to do it anyway and cusses under his breath.

Sorry, let me translate that into Canadian:

"I'm sorry, but I don't believe this is my job."

But no. Babysitting other world leaders is not in Trudeau's job description .

 

[Fuzzy]

Why do you want Trump to launch an attack?

 

[SRG01]

That has to be deliberate

Unfortunately we wont get this until after he is out of power. Until then its faux-passive-aggressive-ass-kissing

 

[Opto]

I'd be surprised if all the developed countries in the world aren't formulating pitches on trade deals that inflate trump's ego while strip mining the US bare.

 

[Leeness]

That has to be deliberate

But of course. Why would I correct the other poster without apologizing first??

 

[AnathemicOne]

I don't know whether to laugh or cry

 

[gabbo]

It'a already pretty well reported that we're working with them on keeping Trump's tiny little hands away from NAFTA

 

[takriel]

The US has a fucking toddler running the country.

Says a lot about his supporters, doesn't it?

 

[KingV]

Should have called Putin.

 

[Madness]

Is this even legal?

Are they allowed to contact a foreign government without permission and have them intervene like that?

Nope. But just shows how crazy things are. There is no coming back from this Presidency. You Americans are a laughingstock in the eyes of the world. White house staff calling a foreign leader to help stop their President from doing something brash. Lol you cannot make this up.

 

[gutter_trash]

Canada is just going to increase trade relations with Europe and Asia to cover their bases.

Trump is unhinged. The Western world is just going to ignore him for 4 years and work around the US and not with the US until 2020

 

[jerry113]

Wait, isn't the White House staff's job to advise the president?

Easier said than done. If Canada could sign better deals it would have a long time ago. Now it's in a worst position to negotiate since everyone knows Canada is desperately looking to diversify, so they'll get lower offers.

If Trump doesn't change course wait till he sets his sight on Canadian car makers.

 

[BeforeU]

lol embarrassing. wtf man

 

[Mr. Giggles]

Lol, well now, ain't that something

 

[Neo C.]

I guess this is a sign that the White House still does its job.

 

[Mr. X]

This would be funny if not being incredibly unsettling.

[RinsFury]

Can Justin Trudeau be both the Prime Minister and President? Please?

“I've been driving a Lincoln since long before anybody paid me to."

Alright, alright, alright

 

[Bitch Pudding]

Most Americans didn't vote for this turd.

The sample applies for Germans and Hitler, in fact he got less votes (in %) than Trump did. Didn't work as an excuse back then, doesn't work today. America as a whole is to blame for making Trump happen. You're the baddies now, or, at the very least, the laughing stock of this world.

[thepotatoman]

Seems somewhat mild after White House staff literally called up Breitbart, Washington Examiner, Infowars and the Daily Caller to write positive stories of trump so they can literally print it out and hand it to Trump just to cheer him up so he doesn't go on a twitter rant.

[Lil Marco]

Don't do it.

Let it all crash and burn.

Just not the coastal regions, those parts are socioeconomically valuable unlike the center

 

[oti]

Makes since since US and Canada have the tightest bilateral relationship.

This does not make sense.
This is not normal.

 

[astroturfing]

i gotta say as a non-American observer that Trump comes off as a REALLY weak and spineless leader. wasn't he supposed to be some super duper alpha male who knows his shit and gets things done?

instead he's getting lectured by other less powerful world leaders and he's like "oh okay.." and just backs down. what a loser. a total embarrassment, and no bomb he can drop is big enough to obscure that. his staggering incompetence is absolutely clear to the whole world. most of us cannot believe Americans elected a president significantly dumber than even Bush 2..

Canadians are too polite to cuss.

Fuck no, we're not above that.
