GeneticBlueprint Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 Notice the complete lack of reaction or side eyes from everybody in the room despite how loudly Trudeau is speaking.

Getting caught on camera mocking the leader of your greatest ally is another in a long string of foreign relations gaffes from him. At least he had the sense not to show up in a costume or blackface to this meeting - which is an improvement for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CitizenVectron Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 Definitely not smart of Trudeau to have spoken so openly at a public event. But...are we (and Americans) really going to hold him to some higher standard and make fun of him for mocking Trump when Trump does the same all the time at public interviews? Trump has already tried to fuck Canada on so many issues, is this going to change anything? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far, Trudeau has: 1) Created a rift with Saudi Arabia (this one I might be OK with) 2) Worn a traditional Indian costume in India 3) Completely destroyed relations with China (to a much more significant degree than other Western powers) 4) Been caught mocking Trump several times Yes, I do think we should hold Trudeau to a higher standard than that. Trump is like a petulant child, and will do irrational things to those who mock him. He has the leverage on almost every issue, given the size difference between Canada and the US. Mocking him in public is stupid in that it provides no foreign relations benefit and can only provide downside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CitizenVectron Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 To be fair the the tariff is on 2% milk so it's really only 135%. Also the tariff doesn't exist. Well, it's 7.5% within quota, and 241% if imports go above-quota (Canada has a supply-managed dairy market to prevent foreign-domination of the market).
