As we discussed, there was a surprising amount of gossip from the Buckingham Palace NATO reception. In a video which quickly went viral, Justin Trudeau could be seen and overheard in a group including Emmanuel Macron, Boris Johnson and Princess Anne. The group was gossiping about Donald Trump and making fun of Trump’s unhinged press conferences. Here’s the video again:
While Trudeau is the one who could be most clearly heard, it was clear that BoJo, Macron and even Princess Anne were gossiping about Trump too, and that they were contributing to the bitchfest. But Trudeau was the one who hurt poor liddle Bigly’s fee-fees. “He’s two-faced,” Bigly whined.
Trump was so upset that Ivanka’s beloved Justin made fun of him that Trump stormed out of the NATO conference yesterday and canceled his scheduled press conference. Trudeau did his press conference though, and he didn’t apologize for what was said in the video. He said: “Last night I made reference to the fact that there was an unscheduled press conference before my meeting with President Trump. I was happy to be part of it but it was certainly notable.” As for what is happening behind-the-scenes… well, other world leaders know to expect the unhinged from Trump, and apparently Trump is still tending to his diaper rash:
A top official working with one of the world leaders caught up in Trudeau’s hot mic moment said Trump’s unpredictability has become par for the course at NATO gatherings.
“There’s an unpredictability that we’ve come to expect. But that is how we deal with it,” the official said. “I think everybody would describe it as that — unpredictability … It’s not new.”
Trump is “annoyed” and “bothered” by the hot mic video but believes that the two leaders will likely work through it, according to a source who has recently spoken to the President. The source said the video was not why Trump canceled his news conference.
Trump and Trudeau had a brief exchange WEdnesday morning, but the Canadian Prime Minister did not apologize, according to a NATO member source. Separately, a Canadian official said Trudeau had given Trump “context” about the incident captured on video. A spokeswoman for Macron at the Elysée Palace told CNN they had “no comment. This video does not say anything special.” A spokesperson for Rutte also told CNN they do not comment on closed-door sessions.
Props to Trudeau for not apologizing. Trump acts like a sucky baby 24-7 and if his feelings were hurt by adults complaining about his unhinged behavior, so be it. What really bothers Trump is the knowledge that these important people were making fun of him. He’s sick with jealousy that Justin Trudeau is so good-looking and erudite. Trump can’t believe that Macron can play him so easily. And Trump is really, really upset that his friend BoJo didn’t want to be seen with him before the British election, and that BoJo was there in the gossip group, making fun of him.

It makes me so happy to see all these world leaders getting all mean-girly together. Such an equalizing moment reminding us all we are all human! Lol How would you not gossip about a joke like Trump??
Oddly, I felt uncomfortable when my Prime Minister was caught out being unprofessional in a professional setting……no matter what, he is still the peoples of the United States representative, our neighbour, biggest trading partner and ally. I found it rude…….
Yeah but it was supposed to be a private conversation at a cocktail party. They didn’t even say anything that bad. Just commenting on the fact they were late to the cocktail party because Trump decided to do an impromptu 40 minute press conference. They weren’t calling him a “jackass” or anything else. Plus Trump f*cking deserves it. This jerk has said and done plenty. It’s time he get a taste of his own medicine. I’m not a fan of Justin either but that’s for other reasons…you know like black face and everything. They both suck.
Um . No. He is NOT MY effing representative. He is Russia’s rep. He is a fraud and a criminal and says rude shit every time he opens his tiny pie/McDonalds hole. I personally did not find it rude enough.
False equivalence here. Now if you don’t like Trudeau because of policy that is fine, but black face shouldn’t be your reason, especially when compared to Trump. Now I don’t really know Canadian politics, but I do know Virginia politics. One of the major groups supporting Governor Northam, after his similar incident was exposed, is Virginians of African American decent. You know why cause Northam has enacted policies which help the African American community in Virginia. Probably more than any other governor before.
One thing about the African American voting block is they are the most practical of all voting blocks, especially the women. They want their leaders to do things for them, and not just speak about things they can’t do. This is part of the reason why I think Biden still leads in polls with African Americans. They know he is palatable to the average white guy and could get elected. Plus he will enact policies which will benefit them. White woke voters are looking for the perfect candidate which doesn’t exist. We beat up the candidates so much we end up with a Trump winning by default. Please I hope not!!!! I’d take Trudeau any day over Trump. He may have sucked in one way, but he’s so much better in a bunch of other ways, and there is a danger when you compare the two like that. You diminish how truly awful Trump is!!! Plus shouldn’t the fact that someone apologizes and does things to help that community have some impact, as opposed to what Trump and most of the other Republicans do which is ignore it completely, or call us Snowflakes. You can still not like Trudeau, but Trump sucks and Trudeau is just bad in this way. There are big degrees and unfortunately it seems like the media and everything lumps it together.
Sorry for the soapbox, and it is probably not what you meant that far. Still I see this so much and it worries me.
@ noway
I said they both suck…I didn’t say they both “equally” suck lol. Obviously I would choose Justin over Trump…who wouldn’t? But Justin has done a lot to make Canadians not like him. He was only re-elected because the Conservatives had a real f*ck up of a leader, otherwise Justin would have been out. It’s more than just his Blackface debacle (which was disgusting and sorry it tells a lot about a person…he was a teacher at the time !). He apologized because he wanted to get re-elected. Justin isn’t liked for many reasons…just look up Indigenous rights and the sh*t the Trudeau government is doing and/or neglecting…it’s disgusting. I could go on and on… I do, however, appreciate your comment.
@noway, I rarely agree with yr comments but I totally agree with this one, very well said. I’m a WOC but I truly I’m/was not that hung up on Trudeau black face stuff. What matters to me and the reason I voted the liberals back into power was what they have done for me and my people and our communities as POC, and what they will continue to do. The outrage over this black/brown face, at least to me, was OTT espevislly as it was mostly conservatives that were yelling the loudest hoping to put a huge dent in Trudeau’s support, but that was just me and I certainly don’t speak for the entire population of POC. And tbh this conversation was being had by multiple heads of state, why is Trudeau being singled out? What exactly did Trudeau say that was offensive? I’m not at all embarrassed or upset about any of it and I still wouldn’t be if they were talking about Obama whom I adore so much. This is such a nothing burger to even be discussing.
Shirleygailgal: Truly, we are not offended.
Perhaps if the “President” didn’t behave like an over-tired, attention seeking toddler, there would be no discussion. I don’t feel bad for him and frankly, when we like to dish out rudeness and bad behavior, we shouldn’t be in our feelings when we get it back. Just saying.
Sure, Trump was elected President. But he doesn’t deserve respect just because a bunch of racists voted for him. I’m glad world leaders treat him like the idiot he is. If Americans are going to elect someone like Trump, this (mocking by other leaders) is EXACTLY what we deserve.
What’s rude is delaying meetings with world leaders so you can hold unscheduled press conferences.
Trump has negatively impacted NATO’s ability to do important things. It’s about time he faced consequences for it.
This exactly! As a Canadian, I wonder how our country is going to have to pay for this one.
I was happy, as a Canadian, that MY Prime Minister is Liberal, intelligent AND a good judge of character!!!!!!!!
Nothing that was said was anything other than the truth so if democratically elected leaders can’t discuss how Dump is violating norms then Dump is winning because his garbage is being normalized. I don’t have a problem with Trudeau, Macron and others talking about what Dump did because it is fucking weird and they need to vent like anyone else. They could have said way worse about it.
Anyway the only people who have a real problem with Trudeau saying this in Canada are people who never liked him in the first place. This actually makes him more popular for most Canadians because Dump is a horrible human being. Also, the US needs NAFTA pt 2 to be passed for their own border states so he’s not going to cancel anything. Plus he is worried as hell about the impeachment. This is a nothing burger that will pass very quickly.
Fellow Canadian here: I am NOT offended by Justin Trudeau’s behavior. I am proud of him.aa Canadas PM.
@noway, thank you for your nuanced description of Black voters in Virginia. As a woman of color, I really appreciate someone in the electorate who gets it. We need more of you who see minorities as people instead of as “them”.
All of the political gaslighting of minorities makes me angry. I am in a mixed-race family, and all Black and Mexican and Honduran, etc etc etc people don’t think alike, nor do we want politicians blowing smoke up our nether regions. But we are used to it from everybody, so we look for different things than privileged people do. Privileged people already have what we are trying to get.
I read a really interesting article about a biographer’s analysis of Justice Thomas. I hate Thomas, BTW, but, in essence, he believes that Thomas’ conservatism comes from a place of accepting that a majority of White people will never support minorities, thus less government is better for people of color and that his opinions come from a practical assessment of racism. My mind was blown because it RINGS TRUE as a massive bell. I know African Americans and Mexican Americans who think the same way: the White folks don’t care, are in charge, so don’t expect anything. We need to do it ourselves, so, while I like Warren and Sanders, they ARE too radical for me in terms of healthcare. I’m not looking for perfect. I’m looking for someone who can move the needle and stop my people from being used and killed. I’m looking for respect of my autonomy as a woman and as a person of color for my people. I know that there are advantages to Whiteness because I pass for White, and I have been treated well while standing next to family and friends who were not treated well in a lot of situations.
Trump thinks being laughed at is the worst thing that could happen. He used to talk repeatedly about how the “world was laughing at us” during the Obama years (they weren’t). So this has to be driving him crazy.
He’s the man with the thinnest skin in politics. It is especially funny when you consider the stuff she’s said about other people. He can dish it out but he can’t take it.
No one should EVER apologize to Trump for ANYTHING. EVER.
Hard to believe that he’s just now realizing people everywhere consider him an unstable clown.
LMAO! Agreed!
He had a lot of enabling handlers. This is very typical of narcs where those close to them tip toe around them.
Right? In his twisted little brain he’s the biggest and baddest president who ever lived and those boys are just jealous of how awesome he is😂
more like an unstable assclown.
…says the guy who openly mocks people with disabilities/women/people of colour/people with brains…
This world-leader gossip session brings me so much joy! I wish that we could hear what the others were saying.
Yes to all of this!!
This incident was like an early Christmas present.
Trump is also sick with jealousy that both Melania and daughter-wife Ivanka would still love to get some Trudeau.
Daughter-wife! So true!
I am sorry for you.
At the same time, as an Italian who lived the Berlusconi mess, I am beyond relieved we got rid of him.
I don’t want to imagine Trump and him at a summi.
Thank you… ugh having a lunatic in office is like a nightmare and had aged us all a great deal!
How many years did you have to endure Berlusconi?
Too many…. Twenty, give or take – he wasn’t in power continuously, but he dominated public discourse. I really hope the US can get rid of Trump more quickly.
The dude eats terribly and doesn’t exercise, so I think 20 years is pushing it. Plus, Americans are notorious for short attention span. Pretty sure we won’t be interested in 20 years.
I was reading an interview with the CBC producer who found/published the hot mic moment initially. Apparently the 30 and 40 minute press conferences with Trudeau and Macron were scheduled to be TWO MINUTE photo sessions! In an international gathering of the most powerful treaty organization in the world Trump went off schedule by 66 minutes! Also apparently Trump off-the-cuff mentioned the next G7 would be at Camp David, even though his own staff was not yet aware of this. Interesting stuff. Not sure how to short-link but google As It Happens and Chris Rands for anyone interested.
Lol, somebody was “triggered”.
Tin foil hat theory- this video was intentionally recorded/released by Trump’s camp to give Trump an excuse to leave early and distract from the impeachment. Trump only went to get photographs with TQ and secretly meet Jared’s good pal Erdogan, who probably passed on a message from Donny’s pal Vlad Putin.
I’ve noticed his pattern of finding excuses to leave these international gatherings earlier, usually after meeting someone shady.
I totally agree with Rapunzal’s idea that trump goes to these meetings with the world’s leaders to get his instructions from Vlad on the down low. He’s such a traitorous embarrassment for the USA.
whoa, I’m blown away by this analysis….never occurred to me…yikes…..okay, maybe a little less embarrassed……..
I think it is funny people think it is that organized. All Putin wanted was the West to be in disarray, and he got it. Now he can do whatever he wants. He doesn’t need Trump to do anything in particular just cause chaos. I think this all stems from the fact Putin has the golden shower tape or at least threatens that he has it. This way Putin just slightly threatens Trump and all goes away. It’s quite clever on Putin’s part.
Yup. Putin doesn’t give any of his puppets (POTUS, British PM, Presidents of Philippines, Ukraine, Czech Republic, etc. etc.) specific instructions because he doesn’t need to. All he needs to do is pay off their debts, give them money for their campagins, wage cyberwar and culture war and election fraud on their behalfs to get them elected, and then let them take office. He picks blustering loudmouthed narcissist idiot clowns who will say and do absolutely anything. They can hate each other, it’s fine by Putin. As long as they don’t come for Russia, they are free to do whatever their moronic selfish peabrains cook up. Because he knows that is the way to undermine democracy. It’s to get the population to be divided, cynical, and “over” politics b/c it just seems all so ridiculous or stressful.
This sounds very plausible, thank you. It is a bit too much of a coincidence that this first “hot mike revelation” where we see national leaders behaving unprofessionally would target Trump. I too believe it’s red meat for Trump’s base–to encourage isolationism and hatred of other democracies. Funny how it’s never a dictator on video slipping up!
I read that the footage was release on the Russian channel RT before CBC aired it. Also I agree that Dump was always going to leave early. I think it’s more because he wanted to be back for the impeachment hearings and it would explain why he did those impromptu press conferences, so he could say that he had already done it. The meeting with Erdogan remains shady as well. Im sure he was imparting orders from Vlad.
They really can’t apologize, it would make them look incredibly weak and Trump would exploit it mercilessly. And it doesn’t matter anyway, Trump doesn’t need reasons to do or say anything. If this hadn’t happened, maybe next week he would have had some rancid KFC and lashed out at a random head of state/government because of diarrhea.
Heyyyyyy. You made me spit out my coffee. “rancid KFC”, HILARIOUS!
Actually I think apologizing would make Trudeau seem mean rather than weak, as he’d be directly admitting he spoke with disrespect. Trudeau handled it well by not apologizing. Now sensitive trump who has dementia can tell himself they are still great friends or whatever because Trudeau didn’t do anything bad.
Apologizing would have made it more serious.
Glad about how he fixed it but shocked that Trudeau was so reckless. We need to be stable allies right now, try harder since you’re the normal one of the two.
This. Everything he said was truth but it is sloppy and undignified to be caught out gossiping at a huge event on the world stage like this… It worries me as a Canadian and I hope that JT’s people were on his ass about discretion.
Trump is so irrational and the Republicans are blindly loyal to him that Canada shouldn’t risk offending him.
Exactly. And anyway, all politicians are two-faced. It’s in the job description!
I think what bothered him more than what they said (because lets be honest, it was funny/amusing to watch but nothing caught on tape was THAT bad) is the fact that they were there together. Like there was this little group of world leaders, and Princess Anne, and they were gossiping about him in a way that suggested they have gossiped about him before – but more than that, they were laughing, getting along, being congenial with each other – despite political differences. Trump desperately wants to be part of that. He’s the bully who just wants to sit at the cool kids table and to be accepted by the cool cliques, but he’s not so he constantly lashes out. It’s basically a pathological need to be included and to be liked/loved, and that’s why he holds those damn rallies.
He cant figure out why hes not part of that group of “cool kids” and it really bugs him.
side note: I saw this convo from another angle, and Princess Anne was definitely all in on it, lol. She wasn’t there just standing politely.
He treats people like cr*p and expects people to like him. He’s way too used to his doormat of a wife if he thinks people will give a sh*t about him.
Yeah, I think Trump is also paranoid that everyone is out to get him so seeing a group together discussing him must rankle him.
I think he probably also didn’t like Trudeau saying that Trump’s staff was jaws on the floor over his behavior, as Trump wouldn’t want it known his staff thinks he’s nuts.
But I still don’t even see what was mean in the convo. Basically it was all fact. Trudeau was just saying why he was late and that he and Trump’s staff couldn’t believe the departure from schedule. Considering Trump leans on being a drain the swamp outsider, this type of this could go along with that if he spun it right. But of course he didn’t.
yes to everything you said…and add to that the fact that “the black guy” was able to do what BIG STRONG RICH WHITE MAN cannot (be accepted by the cool kids) and it’s even more maddening to him.
I am no fan of Trump but this is clearly another example of Trudeau doing something really stupid. He needs to shut up in public about these things. Did he learn nothing from his pre-election scandal and social media? The impact he could have on Canadians travelling to the US, free trade and national security could be changed on a whim as Trump is known to do. No matter who is the President, The US is our ally and needs to remain so. Trudeau just keeps alienating.
Disagree. He is a rock star! Smart and kind, and a perfect antidote to Trump. He makes mistakes and apologies like a gentleman when he is sorry (and not when he isn’t).
No, absolutely not. Have we learned nothing from history? We need world leaders to speak up about the idiot we have in the White House. If certain elements of government had spoken up about Neville Chamberlain and his plan to appease Hitler perhaps World War II wouldn’t have started and Hitler’s rise to power would have been stymied.
Trump is going to do whatever he’s going to do and Justin talking about him won’t stop 45.
+1000
I’m Canadian and I’m glad Trudeau said it! Trump is destroying the U.S. democracy and he needs to get a dose of reality! Trump is a bully and needs to realize he isn’t King no matter how desperately he abuses his position to soothe his pompous ego! He’s putting children in cages and is a compulsive liar.
Donald Trump is a liar, a rapist, a racist, a thief, a pedophile, a traitor, a failed father and husband. A con- artist, a thug, a grifter, a coward and a bully. He’s stupid, incompetent, a criminal. His businesses have filed for bankruptcy over and over. He’s a stain on humanity. He takes children from their families. He’s a stain on this country. And a disgusting human being.
Janice that’s all true plus trump is erratic. That’s why JT should be extra careful, is it that hard to not make a mistake at a 2-3 hour party ? His mistake here won’t help any of trumps victims. As one Canadian politician left of JT, Jasmeet Singh said, THIS is not what is important to criticize about trump.
Oh Nettie…every Canadian except the Cons don’t pucker up to kiss the Big Orange _____(fill in the blank) If Canadians had an issue with Trudeau they had an opportunity to vote him out of power but there he is..our Prime Minister. The scandal of brown face well face it many brown people viewed it as moronic not malicious. The majority of the people offended were white..which gave me hours of entertainment on twitter since the majority of people posting were middle class white conservatives who are not exactly on the front lines of human rights issues in our country. A side note..some of those folks are on the anti abortion/separatists crazy train happening in Alberta. It’s exhausting keeping up with all the insane headlines. I feel like an American. So Nettie Speak for yourself… Trudeau has his issues but he was clearly humbled by our reaction at the polls.
Nope. People need to stand up to Trump. No amount of ass-kissing will save Canada when Trump decides he needs a new scapegoat. Just look at how he treats his own people will show you that enabling a narcissist gets you nowhere. He just fires him via twitter while on the toilet.
I’m a Canadian too, and lemme tell ya, it gave me great pleasure seeing people at that level discussing the BS antics of one of their own. These political leaders are people, regardless of position and title, and yet at the same time they have expectations to meet. And Trump is so out of their league (and by that I mean they know he’s an unqualified buffoon) it must rankle them to no end that they must make so many concessions to such an undeserving peer when there’s things that needs doing!
And Trump needs to be made to feel uncomfortable every day of his life forever. He needs a broken record playing in his ear that he was useless, mocked, laughed at, jeered and exposed as the phony billionaire he is and has always been until the end of time all because he couldn’t take a joke and thought “presidenting” would be easy.
We can never relax about the mess of Trump. We need constant reminders and retrospection about the hows and whys of his time in the WH. It must never be allowed again.
But what did Trudeau say that was so bad? That Trump did a last minute 40 minute press conference inconveniencing everyone else, I see nothing wrong with that. Trump made a big deal over nothing which is not surprising.
I am Canadian and I totally disagree with you.
Nothing that Trudeau said was false. And it’s time that world leaders stop pussy-footing around because of their perceived “need” of the US. That’s exactly what Trump hides behind.
Canadian here and totally disagree. What Trudeau said wasn’t insulting and he was totally in his rights to complain that a 2min photo shoot had turned into a 40min impromptu press conference that messes up a very tight schedule. Not being a good ally is doing something like leaving Syria and letting the Turks come in to slaughter the Kurds who have fought alongside our troops against terrorists for a decade, that’s terrible; complaining about being late because of a long word-salad is nothing. We shouldn’t have to tiptoe around the fact that POTUS is unhinged and unfit for office.
Trudeau isn’t the smartest (and sorry Kaiser, but he’s definitely not erudite, just not completely ignorant) but he’s done nothing wrong here. If there were to be retaliations, the US would be the ones looking like fools.
I disagree. Trump is the one who is out of line, delaying meetings with WORLD LEADERS for his own vanity. He’s been terrible for NATO, which has a serious and important agenda. Trump needs to be called out when he works against the objectives of his own country and our allies. He’s been allowed to be uncooperative for years now, and finally he is facing consequences.
Humiliation is a small price to pay for screwing over the world. He’s risked the security of our allies for his own benefit, and so he actually deserves far more serious consequences than a mild ribbing.
Prime Minister Trudeau said nothing wrong. Why is no one talking about President Trump’s vicious rant about Congressman Schiff? That was far worse than a group of leaders laughing about Trump delaying meetings. PM Trudeau is well respected and handles himself with dignity on the world stage. He and Ms. Freeland have dealt with Trump in a professional manner.
The US needs free trade with Canada as much as we need them. Michigan, Ohio and Wisconsin really need NAFTA 2.0 to pass and so nothing is going to happen there. Besides Trudeau didn’t actually say anything insulting. He and Macron simply described what happened.
I know some people haven’t got over the election, but Trudeau is still PM and Scheer is going to get turfed in April. Standing up to Dump made Trudeau look better because most Canadians hate Dump, even many conservatives.
His wittle feelings were hurt. Bullies can dish it but never can take it. I love the fact that even his buddy Boris was in on it. It takes a buffoon to know one.
Boris HATES Trump. Google his video on Trump when he was mayor. He thinks Trump is a joke but jollies up to him for trade deals for his billionaire chums. It’s a purely transactional relationship between two sociopathic narcs.
But Trump THINKS their buddies. Because he is so starved for approval that anyone who gives his praise – no matter how disingenuous- is a friend to him. It’s why he is so easy to manipulate.
Agree, @Valiantly. Trump thinks everyone who is courteous to him is his friend and owes him loyalty. He doesn’t understand the very basic concept that at any job, including diplomacy, you have to be polite and work productively with people to achieve common goals, even if you dislike them. It’s Grown-Up Life 101, but of course he doesn’t get that, because he has such a binary, childish view of human relationships.
Regardless, I’ll bet Ivanka and Mel would still love to sample some Trudeau gentleman sausage. My daughter just sent me a meme from Facebook, which I don’t have, about how “the trump (anus tangerinus), reacts when upset”. It’s hilarious! As we’d say down here, tRump is a big sooky-la-la who needs to harden the f*** up.
OMG anus tangerinus. I love it!
Same as the booing at the sports events, he just can’t face reality when he steps outside of his MAGA safe space cocoon. #triggered
As much as th convo is amusing in a mean girls/childish way I’d much rather any of them had the balls to disagree with him and call him out in public. …. and while i am delighted to see Prince Andrew now suffering for his involvement with Epstein why is Trump getting a pass?
Seems like Trump always gets a pass. I don’t understand why none of the leaders calls Trump out publicly when Trump goes off on his high horse and belittles them? There is so much to throw in Trump’s face. Also what happened to those 19 women who said Trump sexually harassed/assaulted them? This f*cker gets away with way too much. Someone needs to shut him up but I guess no one wants to deal with the mega tantrum he would have…like a child rolling on the floor in Wal-Mart because his mommy wouldn’t buy him candy.
Not Trudeau’s biggest fan, but grateful he didn’t apologize!! Would be an awful precedent to set bending over backwards for Trump throwing a tantrum!!
I think this is hilarious and ridiculous. I dont think what Trudeau said was bad, insulting or dismissive to Trump but Trump cant handle even minor criticism so he left. Rutte’s comment was “fake news” with a big laugh afterwards, which was amazing.
Trump is a loose canon at these things and if his handlers can’t rein him in to follow the plot and show some cooperation with the other leaders then f*ck him. It throws all the careful planning off and shows utter contempt for the other leaders there trying to work as a whole. Then in barges the big orange buffalo and turns everything into chaos. It’s all well for him to hurl insults and spew rude, racist and misogynistic tweets all over the place but when a few leaders get together for a beer to talk about Drumph’s latest mistep all of a sudden he’s stomping off in pique then rage-tweets from his corner. Someone give him a dunce hat.
He seems to think he’s the president of the world and above all the other leaders.
I mean he called him two faced and a nice guy in the same sentence, so sounds net neutral to me. I also think Cheeto oddly respects him since he is handsome and tall with nice hair.
The gossip session wasn’t even active sht talking. It was factual – “we were late because of the conferences, his staff was shocked”. JT does a fine job walking the line when it comes to Cheeto.
Jo Biden put out a recasting as focusing on how the entire world is laughing at Trump. I don’t have the link but it includes several hot mike moments and the UN laughing at him. I like to envision Emperor Baby Fists (Tm Celebitchy) hate watching that commercial over and over.
FB just banned that commercial. Can you believe it?
I’d like to see ALL the world leaders laughing at Dump at a giant fete that he wasn’t invited to–televised of course. What fun! I would watch every hilarious, cringey minute.
I have NEVER been more attracted to Trudeau and that is saying something! Also, Macron suddenly seems hotter. Hell, even BoJo is making me warm and fuzzy.
The cape. The caaaaaaaape.
Trump is a raging narcissist. I had a boss like him for many years..one of his main obsessions was people being friendly with each other. He had us all stay in different hotels for conferences so we would not socialize, even if that meant his deputy had to stay in B&B out of town! Almost fired a girl in charge of travel arrangements for putting 2 colleagues in the same hotel. He’d barge into our offices to see if anyone was talking..3 times made a huge scene because I had a door open between my office and the office next door (“told you to keep the doors shut!”). The screaming on the phone when he overheard people laughing! Narcs are very insecure. They desperately want to be part of the “cool” group but don’t know how. The absolute worst thing you can do to a narc is to laugh at him. They are deadly afraid of ridicule. Trumpster will not easily forget this. Fortunately for Trudeau, bigly has a hard on for him too, so he won’t be too harsh. LOL
One more thing about narcissists..after a while they feel invulnerable, we used to joke that the boss “walks 5 centimeters above the pavement”. And this is when they get in trouble. Because the only way to control a narc in power is to blackmail him. My former boss is in the clutches of even a bigger narcissistic/psychopath who has compromising sex tape of him…the guy’s gainfully employed at 3 times the average salary, does nothing except destroying lives of those he dislikes. He’s untouchable much like the boss himself who, in turn, has interesting material on the top church guys in a very catholic country..even his own boss ( we are talking government level) can’t fire the psychopath because every time he tries, he gets a call from ..you guessed it, cardinal X..”do not touch Tommy”. This is not gossip btw, it’s firsthand knowledge. So, I am absolutely positive Trump is blackmailed by Putin by means of a hooker tape with some nasty shit on it. And by shit, I mean shit..nothing else would be equally effective.
