All the other leaders made it out this year, except for one.

That almost makes it better! He wasn't making a dig. It was a sincere statement.

Sure he is a pretty boy and can be overdramatic but he is a good leader and a good statesman.
mookian
Remember he also said veterans were asking for to much, then gave a billion dollars to Africa

pfffft, nothing compared the the dollars he's spending on the wall that "Mexico will pay for and won't cost the US a penny". And golf.

Even more Canadian then
AMBM2
This guy is so badly misrepresented in how he treats veterans. He is objectively one of the best and most respectful pms we've had toward
AMBM2
veterans, putting billions into veterans affairs and benefits, restarted the full pension plan, and paid back lawsuits started under the
AMBM2
last government. He then went out and publicly apologized to a veteran for not being able to do more, and his opponents took his words
AMBM2
out of context, twisted them, and made it seem like an insult. He isn't great on everything, but he should get credit where its due.

Or maybe he usually doesn't. Usually when I arrive home I leave the umbrella open in front of the door for a while for rain to drip down.

He probably has someone that picks up the umbrella eventually instead of doing it himself. But it's good not to get too much water in.

Rain makes spray tans run.

Because he's so sweet like sugar?

Oh I'm sorry, I forgot imgur can't recognize sarcasm if it dragged its sweaty nuts across its face without the imgur approved "/s".

I decided to check out Trump's favorite subreddit to see how his diehards handled it: Not a single post, just accusations of election fraud.

In going to go out on a limb and say most diehard Trump supporters aren't following last years speech given by the Canadian Prime Minister.
TheBlackWindHowls
Oh, I mean about Trump not showing up for the WWI centenary commemoration on account of rain, not the speech.
psalad
My bad. Yeah that makes way more sense. Lol

Right, maybe they read when the AP corrects the story? https://apnews.com/2eee193e5904438bb206c56c15e5a140 they said others made the call...
StarrryNight
And you believed it.... ? Wasn't a case of Trump telling them to make up an excuse at all.
bobbob1016
And you believe AP the first time but not the second? Are you now saying the AP is fake news? Or only fake news when you don't like the news
StarrryNight
I'm saying the AP is reporting the lie that Trump made up.
bobbob1016
...and Trump took it under advisement I guess. Without his tank car, he can't exactly bum a ride or take a bus.
OtterAvalanche
I genuinely dont understand. How does this all relate to trump? What did I miss?
Housemaster
Trump cancelled a trip to a US military memorial because it was raining.
OneDayIwillPost
Apparently a lot
Sekolah
You'll have to dig to find a non-lizard brain answer to this,most people are convinced it's just rain related
antistatusquo
Nothing. It’s the Lib’s en vogue, BS, groupthink. Everything is Trump’s fault. Because SNL, DeNiro, Whoopi, and Beyoncé said so. Keep on tho
Youdiditwrong
I don't like Trump, but I dislike the active pointless attacks on him. Nevertheless I have found no reason other than rain being why he 1/2
Youdiditwrong
did not attend.That is shameful.A disgrace for people who support the military to support this move by him. Something came up?Fine.But rain?
InkyBlinkyPinkyAndClyde
So it's a lie that he skipped going to an event to commemorate dead US soldiers because of the weather?
holymanbatbatman
Well, technically it's not a lie. But it's also not the truth. A department of the secret service said that it would have been unsafe to 1/?
holymanbatbatman
fly the presidential plane/helicopter, due to bad weather. Apparently neither the US Military, White House Staff, Various governmental 2/?
trollprozac
Yet the next day he attended a ceremony in the rain. Logistical issues happen.
LiteralVampirePotBellyGoblins
Keep telling yourself that.
trollprozac
I thought liberals were interested in facts. But only anti-trump "facts" apply I guess.
LiteralVampirePotBellyGoblins
You're confusing "facts" with "excuses". All the other world leaders attended. Also, I'm conservative, not liberal.
trollprozac
By the way. It's a fact he recently (like today) attended a ceremony in the rain, it wasn't rain that was the issue. It was wind/safety.
trollprozac
The other world leaders don't have the same safety standards. Also, if it quacks like a duck. You're a liberal bro.

Trudeau looked like a dumbass dropping his unbrella taking a chance to make trump, the leader of his biggest ally look bad, real classy.
MyDogIsSmarterThanYourHonorsStudent
Trudeau could be naked eating the ass end of a skunk and jerking off over a picture of mother theresa and still have more class than trump.
MyDogIsSmarterThanYourHonorsStudent
If you think him dropping an umbrella makes him look bad youre either willfully ignorant or havent been watching US politics for a few years
SeanBeanDiesAlot
This happened last year at Dieppe, a battle in WW2 Canadians fought in. Not the WW1 armistice that the last few days commemorate
DavosTheOnionKnight
Trump talks shit all the time about his only allies in the world and you're going to act like this little incident is unacceptable?
PSTN0
This isn't in response to Trump, this happened last year.
Housemaster
This was last year, so that narrative doesnt fit.
Nalianna
Trump already made himself look bad.
Isaypoopythingsbecausemostofyouannoyme
It’s funny tho when people defend him by saying “they’re just trying to make him look bad” but everything they’re saying is factual.
Maatlooc
This speech is a year old, trump made himself look bad just fine
iamnotAstalker
Yea. Fuck Trudeau for doing the right thing and making Trump look weak for not supporting our veterans.How dare Trudeau make a moving speech
AheagoAmigo
No he decided to be petty & make the event into a grade school level jab. Want to be better than "literally Hitler"? Dont stoop to his level
buckeyes995
He said this last year, unless Trudeau can see the future this had nothing to do with how Trump acted this weekend
AheagoAmigo
Either way, it's being circulated as a jab against him. So thus my original statement still holds true. Just be better than him & not petty.
