Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney told Donald Trump on Tuesday that his country will never be for sale, shutting down the U.S. president’s repeated calls to make Canada the 51st state.
“There are some places that are never for sale,” Carney said in the Oval Office.
Canada is “not for sale” and “won’t be for sale ever,” the prime minister said.
Trump replied: “Never say never.”
Carney also called him a “transformational president” who “revitalized international security” and Trump nodded “it’s true!” because he’s too stupid to realize it wasn’t a compliment.
Carney used “tranformational” twice, then Trump tried to use it but lost his train of thought.
That was the end of my watching tv cause my head hurt from his utter fucking stupidity.
Carney does like that word a lot, although not nearly as much as “if I may”
“If I may” is Canadian english for “please be quiet, I haven’t finished speaking”.

Or shut your fucking orange pie hole I’m speaking right now.
Or in American “shut the fuck up Donnie”

Your country’s leader may overuse turns-of-phrase. Mine is destroying a lifetime of political capital and hurting millions both domestically and internationally.
I’d choose your leader over mine in a hot second.
may overuse turns-of-phrase
Sorry. If I may, I suspect the listener may need repetition to be comfortable in the conversation, since it will re-use words he’s already figured out.
So much better than Trump’s mouth diarrhea

So fucking embarrassing.
Okay so the thing is Trunp might be embarrassing for you, but the threats to our sovereignty are fucking serious to us. It’s like, not a joke. Trunp has nukes and the biggest military on Earth and he’s saying Canada doesn’t exist, shouldn’t exist, is artificial, only exists cause the US lets us be here, we’re communist/socialists therefore should be attacked, we should be a state etc. The US can’t walk back that shit. We don’t WANT to do business with the US. We don’t want anything to do with the US- for generations.

I love this actually.
Where did I imply that any of this was funny?
Same. I only watched it cuz I like watching carney in action. Everyone else in that room makes me want to vomit
I think he handled him well.
He did. Carney fed Trump’s ego and used almost every one of his good-trigger words so Trump was placated.
If world leaders learned nothing else from the Zelenskiy debacle, it was that.
Imagine if Carney plays him so well that he becomes a trusted voice in Trump’s head, like Putin is. In such a scenario, Trump would pit Carney’s words on econ against his advisors. 😂

Trump, a convicted rapist and felon with little education and a history of bankrupting everything he touches, thinks he’s going to out maneuver Carney, a man who’s highly educated, has run the bank of Canada, the Bank of England, and sat on the board of Brookfield, a company worth……over $900 US billion. Yeah, whatever.
Trump doesn’t even know when he’s being insulted, but nods and agrees.
OK Trump, time for a diaper change, warm bottle and a nap ya stupid fuck.
What would it even mean to “sell” Canada? Whatever deal they make, the US could just back out of once Canada became a state, and Canada wouldn’t be able to do anything about it. It’s a non-sensical idea.
Selling territories makes sense, but selling your own sovereignty does not.
Carney had to use a word Trump understands.
As a guy not big on the whole consent thing, I doubt Trump understands Never particularly well.
I’ve understood it more as buying the politicians out. That’s the only thing that could really be “for sale”, and thankfully we picked one that isn’t (at least not in this context).
It’s always been hilarious to me that he considers the entire country as one sole entity. Like if I said all the US would be one province.
Carney should have said something like “if you want our countries to be friends, then start treating us like a friend and start acting like a friend.”
Talk to Trump at his level, akin to a 5 year old.
The sad thing is, this doesn’t sound odd or unusual whatsoever. Given the current lack of decorum, I automatically assume this is how everyone must speak to him.

Vance would be begging to become another meme over that

Wimpy sat there, too stupid to know he got insulted, and too scared to use his big boy voice. He only does that shit when he’s backed up by his homies or alone at a mic at a rally.
Literally stared at the carpet. You could see the gears turning, but the only thing really going through his mind was that he wanted a hamburger. And maybe a diaper change.
… has Canada considered buying the us? After all, we are for sale.
Being the convicted rapist that he is, Trump can’t take no for an answer.
He should have punched that orange bitch in the face so fucking hard
Then jersey him and feed him a few more.
Damn fucking right. Eat shit Trump and moron sycophants.
”The price is you stepping down and agreeing never to run for any political office under pain of death”
Still wouldn’t be worth it. We can’t expect Canadians to sacrifice themselves to the shitty US system, even the one without Trump.
Might as well skip the middle part, he’s never going to do any of that anyway.

As much as I want to believe this, so far the only source I’ve seen is Dean Blundell who is not what you would call a real journalist.
Very interesting thank you. Never would it the wished for a banker as prime minister. But it seems hell just froze over with USA taking a big shit on Canada by openly declaring economic war intending to annexe. But once at war you elect a General … He won me over on the Colbert report when talking about the 2008 crisis. He didn’t let Canadian Banks in on the sub par market because he didn’t understand it. Probably because it doesn’t make any sense.
It’s not a joke you dumb cunt. It was said with its full intention.
Well, at least until the cons get elected
