Much of this is because of how Trump behaves. The same might be said about Trudeau.... I'm sure Trump makes jokes about him too. Do you want all politicians to be deadly serious all the time. I think we should all lighten up. I does not matter how he behaves, it is what he represents The President of the USA, the worlds most powerful leader in the world...like him or not we still have to respect his position...and the power he has at his finger tips.. I think in the setting that Justin was in, and in front of other leaders , ya I do think he should be serious...want to joke do it in private, or make it about a neutral topic...not the worlds most powerful leader when you know if he finds out it is not going to go over well... do you think it is going to be worth pissing him off, for a joke or giving him an excuse to act out against us.. then I guess it was serious . I get it he's not very popular guy, not many like him, and in this case he has a right to be tough on those that are free loaders, after all it is the US that is picking up the slack with American tax dollars, tax dollars better spent than paying out large gobs for Europe's defense, or in our case 90 % of our defense needs... Moneys tight all over, time to pay up or get out of the NATO arrangement...it really is that easy...why is that so hard for everyone to see ?

He might well use the lack of military spending as an excuse. If he doesn't think Canada is holding its end of the treaty/bargain then move to expel us from NATO. We would deserve that.

Trump tells Justin to squat he is going to squat,and smile while doing it..... you can call it what ever you like .... but lets not pretend Justin is his own man in this case, or on global scale if you will... And your right it is not a big deal to have a press conference and make the rest of the world wait until he was done....what is a big deal is getting caught making smart remarks about the worlds most powerful leader....if it is not a big deal why is it splashed all over the media, why is Biden using it in his campaign, why is everyone still talking about it...

Justin is not in any position to be making fun of any leader, most of the other leaders are still laughing at Justins black face scandal.... I agree with you people should be able to handle humor or criticism but in Trumps case he does not handle any of that very well...just his past history should tell us that...which brings me to the question why would you want to risk those remarks for at the very best he could hope to received was a smile or two...

Dougie93 Posted December 7, 2019 Report Posted December 7, 2019 If you think the Democrats are on Canada's side, you're delusional, Obama was harder on Canada than Trump is. Republicans and Democrats agree, Canada sponges off America and contributes nothing. Quote

Most US presidents have ASKED or hinted at that perhaps Canada to pick up the slack including Obama who was considered a great Canadian allied...one of Canada's favorite Presidents.

Dougie93 Posted December 7, 2019 Report Posted December 7, 2019 Canada can tip toe around as it likes, everybody knows what Canada is about, Canada has no friends, no allies. Canada comes cap in hand to Trump : please save us from the Chinese. Yeah, sure, Canada, whatever. Quote

Dougie93 Posted December 7, 2019 Report Posted December 7, 2019 Every Canadian agrees, Canada should do its fair share. Shoulda, woulda, coulda, but Canada never does. Two faced free riders, never gonna do it, everybody knows. Not just in America, all around the world. Quote
