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 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.
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.
Where did I imply that any of this was funny?
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 in American “shut the fuck up Donnie”
Or shut your fucking orange pie hole I’m speaking right now.
Agreed. It’s called “manners” and “diplomacy”. Something Trump knows nothing about.
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.
New deal, Canada becomes part of the US but we just let them be in charge and abandon our clearly failed political system
