Lots of lovers of Israel.....and LOVERS of CANADA. That's why I'm blasting at Trudeau......because he'll end up destroying Canada, single-handedly...without even the need for any war, or a single shot fired! Wait for 2050, and see how we're doing with our deficit! Look how he brown-nose to Trump. Don't you find that humiliating?

This also applies to other heads of state, ship's captain' chairs, etc. Trudeau was wrong to suggest it if he did, and only demonstrated his naivete and inexperience in such matters. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4223814/Ivanka-posts-picture-Oval-Office-desk.html 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
betsy Posted February 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 (edited) I found this video of Netanyahu's visit. It's amazing that the Trumps waited quite a while outside for Netanyahu's car - in contrast to having Trudeau waiting in his car for Trump to come out. The amount of coverage of Netanyahu's and Trump's interaction (also of Abe's visit) inside the White House, shows the stark difference in receptions when compared with that of Trudeau's. If there's any doubt that the treatment of Trudeau was meant as a slap down, the visits of Abe and Netanyahu proved it. Don't ever think that Trudeau didn't get the clear message either. Our media and pundits are mum about it - of course, why highlight the PM's humiliation at the hands of someone they've tried to demonize? That ought to wipe off all smugness from their faces.

Agreed....Canadian media were just happy and relieved that Trudeau didn't do anything to further Trump's resentment of Trudeau's previous attacks and policies. Trudeau had a big mouth before Trump did the unthinkable....become the 45th president of the United States. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully Trump doesn't feel insecure about Trudeau's big mouth though. We have to be careful and acknowledge that Trump's mouth is more bigly. It's a great mouth - the best mouth. He can do wonderful things with his mouth - the best things. It's going to be great. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote Monday’s visit in D.C. got off to a rocky start. Trudeau’s car was kept waiting outside the West Wing because the president wasn’t ready to greet him. Following a 20-minute tête-à-tête in the Oval Office — just the two leaders — their body language suggested things had not gotten off on the right footing. Trump said little, other than to suggest another four-second handshake. http://www.huffingtonpost.ca/2017/02/14/trudeau-trump-meeting-officials_n_14735818.html It was quite obvious! Refer to the reception given to Abe and Netanyahu. Edited February 28, 2017 by betsy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
