Christ he needs to explain it to Trump like he's a child.
"So you have your toys and your sister has her toys. And no matter how much you offer her she'll never sell you her toys."
he was too stupid to even get into an ivy league even with money, and his father had to make a substantial donation to a lower tier school to even get him admitted.
2 dolls is less than 30 dolls.
Is the 747 model one of Trump’s toys?
Why is it front-and-center of every photo in the White House?
Boeing ad
Hate unskippable ads.
I'm moderately surprised it wasn't the Trump administration shilling for another company.
"The White House, brought to you by Boeing. We'll keep the doors on for you!"
Carney was far over Trunp’s head. He did the thing where he supposedly complimented him but Trunp’s too dumb to realize “transformational” is not necessarily positive. Carney was a diplomat and Trunp was a stream of consciousness non-sequitur lip flapper.
I love that Trump was probably wondering who the "owners of Canada" are and how he can contact them.
They know, they tried to do that on Greenland with the locals. It failed miserably...
I didn't catch that "owners" statement before. But it's excellent -- and not because it stumped Trump. So many different groups will believe he was talking about them.
Haha yup, just one of the quips Carney made that went over Trump's head. Referring to Canada being owned by Canadians to a man who believes he owns his country himself was really well done.
I heard he was probing the president of the US Virgin Islands in a phone call for answers on who owns Canada.
White House might not be for sale, but it has proven remarkably flammable at the hands of a bunch of tourists from Canada...
I feel like this was an ELI5 moment.
That's an insult to five-year-olds.
ELIPOTUS is the new ELI5.
The White House may never be for sale, but it does have a history of being burned to the ground when its occupant provokes its northern neighbour.
Canadians: Burn the White House to the ground
Me: "Oh no! Anyway..."
and things were very historical
I would honestly support this historical reenactment
I like how Donald put a fence around the White House. Like that is going to somehow stop Canadians from setting it afire with him in it.
And we’ll do it again if we have to.
carney isnt in a desperate situation like zelensky was.
not for lack of trying
The White House itself might not be for sale but its current administration certainly it is.
Trump is a fucking embarrassment...
A national embarassment
An International embarrassment to all decent humans, confused how a nation of people can give an idiot this much power
Twice
If he were only embarrassing the world wouldn't respond so negatively to him.
Ex con trump had to have the meeting at the White House because felons are prohibited from entering Canada.
He's still a convicted felon. Surprisingly he hasn't given himself a golden ticket yet.
They are state level convictions. He has no power over that. Only federal convictions.
They are state level convictions. He has no power over that
Yet. Expect that to change some time during his currently illegal third term.
Ah thank you for reminding me!
Well, yeah. Carney wore a suit. /s

Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
