I don't know about anyone else but the presser with the Canadian PM and Trump today was sickening and

[Jit423]

embarrassing. Trump is not only a buffoon, he is an ignorant buffoon. Everyone seated in that room with any self esteem or concern for this country should have left the room before the idiot was finished. I will excuse the Canadian PM as he was a guest with good manners. I hope he give a presser alone and blasts the sitting buffoon.

[malaise]

1. An ill-mannered, ignorant buffoon

and a fucking liar to boot. He has the diplomatic skills of a starving rat.

[Bev54]

5. As was stated on CBC, they saw Trump started out

Respectful to our PM and disrespectful to facts and near the end his words became menacing. PM Carney is respectful always and while made it perfectly clear that Canadians outright reject his 51st state, he is a guest in the white house. Trump is outright lying on trade numbers and we, here, all know it, it is the Trump and his supporters who don’t seem to know the reality of the numbers and reality on the ground.

24. I heard the angle is Alberta

Last edited Wed May 7, 2025, 10:23 AM - Edit history (1)

Supposedly a province can secede and the GOP is hoping for another red state we'd need Puerto Rico to balance it out. But that is the angle going on with this, bombast and not mentioning the real goal.

[Bev54]

30. Never going to happen

As long as I have been alive there has been talk about western separatists or Quebec separatists. It raises its ugly head now and then. Alberta has about 25% (I think it is a lot lower than claimed) who say they want that province to separate. The Premier is like a female Trump (big mouth low intelligence conspiracy theorist) and is using this talk of separation as a deflection of 3 major investigations into her corruption.

We have much different agreements with First Nations here and they have the power to stop any attempt at succession and they have made it very clear to all, they are not willing to play her stupid games.

[IbogaProject]

33. Good to hear

Just mentioning what I heard from someone who consumes RW media.

[Bluetus]

46. Well, can you at least run some gulags for us?

I mean, you have all that space you aren't using. {/sarcasm}

[Bev54]

55. LOL, perhaps for the members of this admin when US regains its senses.

We can put them out in the wilderness or on polar ice that is slowly melting, because of climate change, and see if they can swim.

[electric_blue68]

71. Me like! And hi 👋 , Oh, Canada!

[SharonAnn]

67. Alberta has lots of oil and gas. That' what Trump and his cronies want.

[Mossfern]

48. Nice

turn of phrase.
I like it and will use it....

[malaise]

49. All yours

😀

[suegeo]

2. Donald Trump is a convicted felon.

he is putin's puppet and he is a rapist. Total pig. I've heard he has a foul odor

[FalloutShelter]

3. ALL OF THIS

[sprinkleeninow]

9. *People are saying* that Krasnov, a 34 count convicted felon rapist....

[multigraincracker]

35. Hmmm, and he is talking about deporting US Citizens?

[oasis]

29. "Foul odor". In reality, Trump stinks for sure.

[displacedvermoter]

57. Syphilitic, I have heard!

[vapor2]

4. Why did Carney even accept an invite ?

[Paladin]

6. Because Carney knew trump would make him look like a million bucks, by comparison.

And he was correct, of course.

[paleotn]

43. A low bar for sure.

[Bev54]

7. Because he is a leader of the country that Trump is

Trying to overthrow economically. Of course he has to meet with him and try a little truth telling to the idiot administration.

[LiberalLovinLug]

41. PM Carney has no choice but to meet with him. The US and Canada are each others largest trading partners

Its just sad and embarrassing how transparently insecure he is and to have to endure watching leaders from all over the world, who want to get his ear, have to grovel and lie to him about how great he is.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

58. 1) Election promise. 2) Have to start somewhere. 3) Carney prepared & was cool as an Ontario cucumber. . . . nt

[UTUSN]

8. Bravo CARNEY! - never-for-sale, should have zinged, not-even-an-issue-except-in-your-mind!

[dalton99a]

10. The stupid piece of shit should be in assisted living

[tanyev]

11. He basically is.

The most expensive federally funded adult day care program that’s only taking care of one person.

[Jit423]

15. THIS!

[calimary]

26. Pretty much.

[multigraincracker]

36. I was thinking a padded cell.

[malaise]

51. Don't pad it

Do unto him as he is doing to others

[multigraincracker]

52. Just assign him Nurse Ratched.

[malaise]

53. Perfect

😀

[MarcoZandrini]

60. He needs a.....

….Thorazine drip.

[Ping Tung]

12. OTOH There are some people here that wish that Canada would adopt the states they live in.

Hell, I'd even pretend to like ice hockey and say "eh" at the end of sentences.

[Chipper Chat]

13. What about individual counties along the border?

Could they join Canada? I know some Americans in Derby Line Vermont are pretty upset with Don right now.

[Bev54]

32. If any county or town that should join Canada

It is Point Roberts , Wash. It is completely cut off from US and people have to come into Canada to drive to the US . They totally rely on Canadians for their economy and are really suffering from the lack of Canadians visiting. Hell maybe Alaska should join Canada as well.

[lame54]

34. Been there...

Had a drink at the boat bar
Took the wooded trail to the beautiful beach
They have been stranded
I hope they can survive this

[LisaM]

16. No need to pretend.

The current Stanley Cup playoffs have had some of the most exciting hockey games I have seen in years.

[GoodRaisin]

14. It must be very difficult for an intelligent leader of another country to have to sit for so long

next to a lying buffoon sucking all the oxygen out of the room with complete nonsense.

[3Hotdogs]

18. Who amongst us will ever forget the look on Angela Merkel's face

while iin Anal Fistula’s presence. The look was as if he shit himself and was stinking up the room

[dalton99a]

25. +1

[Marcuse]

66. We've seen that look before.

[3catwoman3]

17. My alliterative characterization...

…of TCF - common, crass, coarse, crude, and contemptible

Vile, vicious, vengeful, vain, and vacuous

Edited to add vulgar

[Jit423]

19. Thank you for that. Great!

[3catwoman3]

23. I forgot vulgar.

Will edit to add.

[calimary]

28. Works for me.

[Walleye]

31. Good job! I agree with all of it

[Codifer]

44. for good news,

add "Vulnerable".

If there is a gawd...... and mebbe even if there is not.

[malaise]

54. Add

Corrupt😀

[WestMichRad]

20. Well, now PM Carney knows...

… that he’ll never bother to waste his time meeting with TSF again.

“Just leave a message after the beep.”

[ananda]

21. Totally pointless and was always going to be.

Why Carney came here is beyond me.

[Justice matters.]

42. Each and every newly elected Prime Minister visits the WH.

By tradition. No matter who is the occupant.

Once that's done, King Charles will deliver the Throne Speech on May 27 in Ottawa's Chamber of Communes.

[RobinA]

22. Well, If Carney Saw

the Zelenskii interview he knew he could come off looking like a star even if he slept through it.

[BoRaGard]

27. This rude slob is the best the G.O.P. has got?

sad batch of suckers.

[mainer]

37. Carney was a troll-master! Thanking Trump for strengthening NATO!

He said, in his polite Canadian way, that he was thankful that Trump has made Canada attend to its own security and made NATO stronger than ever.

Stupid Trump didn't realize he was being trolled.

[Amaryllis]

38. Found on Bluesky: "He's not negotiating..."

‪

He's not negotiating. He's giving Donnie rope, scoping out the situation, and showing Americans that Canada is run by a likeable and respected grown-up. Don't make Trump's mistake of thinking Carney's calm and polite nature is weakness.

[Cha]

45. Rec*** TY, Amaryllis!

[Martin Eden]

39. I wonder how many R's in the House and Senate would like to be rid of Donny 2-Dolls

Everything he touches dies. Eventually that will be the Republican Party.

Sooner the better.

[OverBurn]

40. I'll never understand the appeal for 1/3 the freaking nation. It boggles my mind. It just takes a couple of minutes

hearing him talk, that you just know, he's full of shit. I've meet a lot of blow-hards in my lifetime, that's what my family always called those types. You just know. How can you not fucking know.

I don't get it. Now after all these years it just hurts my ears and my brain listening to this moron talk. I don't get it.

[Emile]

63. The power of the Magic R. It's so powerful

it causes average working people to vote republican just to entertain the wealthy.

[Tootbsb]

47. Trump is a rapist and convicted felon.

[Meowmee]

50. Carney is great, he gave a great presser afterwards as well

It was a relief to hear a normal, sane and smart leader speak again.

[traveler50]

56. All I could think is...

How can the media ignore how demented Donnie looked?

[LetMyPeopleVote]

68. Welcome to DU

[LetMyPeopleVote]

69. Welcome to DU

[wendyb-NC]

59. It was a sickening disgrace

[niyad]

61. For those of you who did not watch Lawrence last night, please watch

his segment on that presser. He has a very different take on it than I am seeing here, and I tend to agree with it. Carney's facial expressions ("I hope you couldn't tell what I was thinking", he said later at his own presser. Maybe not, but a pretty good guess!). "Canada's owners say "NOT FOR SALE" (no, orange, he was not talking developers). "Countries reassessing their security needs" directly aimed at agolf shitler.

Lawrence's comments about the "interview" with kristin welker also interesting.

[Emile]

62. He is an embarrassment. I wish

he would hurry up and die.

[msfiddlestix]

64. I'm a little bit confused as to why the new Prime Ministers of Canada even paid a visit in the first place.

Although, with a "normal" U.S. President certainly would be expected and in keeping with good relations, the fact that the psychopathic mobster criminal holding office has been quite public about his ignorant ideas as regards Greenland, Canada etc.

It seems like Canada is going to have to brace itself from serious hostile attacks from the U.S.?

When I think of how all of this could have been prevented 4 +years ago.......

[Greybnk48]

65. tRump looked tired and hunched over like he was sitting on a toilet. And then speaks like he's in Middle School.

He's disgusting on a whole new level.

[LetMyPeopleVote]

70. trump is looking terrible
