You should hear him speak.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 weeks ago

He is legitimately senile.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

He looks rough as hell, he might legit not make it to the end of his term. The power vacuum he'll leave will be absolutely insane.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

That is when things get scary, imo.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago

I think that would be a best case scenario honestly. Even with trump at the helm the GOP has a rough time keeping together long enough to get anything done. Just look at all the freedom caucus nonsense. Once hes gone theyre not all gonna rally behind any one person, itll be like a feeding frenzy where everyone is out for themselves.

Absolutely, it will go down from scary to terrifying

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago

He looks like it's taking him significant effort just to raise his hand and give a thumbs up.

I just see 3 traitors.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Lmfao he looks so fucking old

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

He's clearly on some kind of weight loss drugs (Ozempic?) or more ill then he lets on. The fat was masking his real age. He also has a shorter haircut and a little less absurd make-up. Also no shoulderpads apparently. He doesn't need to pretend to look less ancient than Biden anymore (or not look as old compared to Harris).

How are Albertans ok with this? No national pride left I suppose.

[–] SketchySeaBeast 17 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

As an Albertan, I've never voted for her and never will. She thinks Trump cares, it's pathetic. He doesn't even remember her name, I'm sure of it.

Of course, I don't know that Trump knows anyone's name at this point.

To his left is Wayne Gretzky.
To his right is Wayne Gretzky.

I was going to say he's surrounded by Arnold Palmers.

[–] cyborganism 12 points 2 weeks ago

LOL I think it's the province with the most Trump flags in all of Canada.

Very strictly speaking.

I always thought Kevin O'Leary was an infuriating know-it-all with an overinflated ego. So I'm not exactly surprised that he's friend of the orange peel: birds of a feather flock together

It was a sad day when we lost that guy

"Grifters United"

The ones who want to exploit the people of Canada.

Who's the old fucker in the middle? Looks like he ran away from the old folks home

Gotta smell like a diaper change is needed too..

What kind of a fuckwad wears a white suit in January

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago

Kenin O'Leary.

There's never a hurricane when (and where) you most need one.

“HaHa! We are so gonna fuck Canadians!”

Alberta Premier, US President Elect, ???

[–] Fenrisulfir 8 points 2 weeks ago

Boat murderer.

Kevin O'Sleazy

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 weeks ago

Glad this says 'photo-op' and not that they 'met with' Trump, because it really looks like they just got a handshake and this weak thumbs-up picture

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

If some photographs are worth a thousand words, this one's a whole Dickens novel.

Allow me to summarize:
