You should hear him speak.

[–] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 7 points 6 months ago

He is legitimately senile.

[–] BestBouclettes@jlai.lu 6 points 6 months 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.

[–] korendian@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago (2 children)

That is when things get scary, imo.

[–] emeralddawn45@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 6 months 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.

[–] BestBouclettes@jlai.lu 1 points 6 months ago

Absolutely, it will go down from scary to terrifying

[–] GraniteM@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

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

[–] sndmn@lemmy.ca 32 points 6 months ago

I just see 3 traitors.

[–] Doom@ttrpg.network 24 points 6 months ago

Very strictly speaking.

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

[–] SketchySeaBeast@lemmy.ca 15 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months 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.

[–] tacosanonymous@lemm.ee 4 points 6 months ago

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

[–] cyborganism@lemmy.ca 8 points 6 months ago

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

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

[–] droopy4096@lemmy.ca 17 points 6 months ago

"Grifters United"

[–] Sunshine@lemmy.ca 11 points 6 months ago

The ones who want to exploit the people of Canada.

[–] Luci@lemmy.ca 10 points 6 months ago (2 children)

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

[–] mp3@lemmy.ca 4 points 6 months ago

Gotta smell like a diaper change is needed too..

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

“HaHa! We are so gonna fuck Canadians!”

[–] CaptainThor@lemmy.world 8 points 6 months ago

What kind of a fuckwad wears a white suit in January

Alberta Premier, US President Elect, ???

[–] Fenrisulfir@lemmy.ca 7 points 6 months ago

Boat murderer.

[–] mp3@lemmy.ca 5 points 6 months ago

Kevin O'Sleazy

[–] dankm@lemmy.ca 5 points 6 months ago

So treason it is then?

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

[–] kbal@fedia.io 4 points 6 months ago (1 children)

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

Allow me to summarize:

Pillage, Plunder, and Payoff.
