You should hear him speak.

[–] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 year ago

He is legitimately senile.

[–] BestBouclettes@jlai.lu 7 points 1 year 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 1 year ago (2 children)

That is when things get scary, imo.

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 1 year ago

Absolutely, it will go down from scary to terrifying

[–] GraniteM@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

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

[–] sndmn@lemmy.ca 34 points 1 year ago

I just see 3 traitors.

[–] Doom@ttrpg.network 26 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Lmfao he looks so fucking old

[–] CitizenKong@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

He's clearly on some kind of weight loss drugs (Ozempic?) or more ill then he lets on. The fat was masking his real age. He also has a shorter haircut and a little less absurd make-up. Also no shoulderpads apparently. He doesn't need to pretend to look less ancient than Biden anymore (or not look as old compared to Harris).

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

[–] SketchySeaBeast@lemmy.ca 17 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year 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 1 year ago

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

[–] cyborganism@lemmy.ca 12 points 1 year ago

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

Very strictly speaking.

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 19 points 1 year ago

"Grifters United"

[–] Sunshine@lemmy.ca 13 points 1 year ago

The ones who want to exploit the people of Canada.

[–] Luci@lemmy.ca 13 points 1 year ago (2 children)

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

[–] mp3@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 year ago

Gotta smell like a diaper change is needed too..

What kind of a fuckwad wears a white suit in January

Kenin O'Leary.

[–] MyDogLovesMe@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

“HaHa! We are so gonna fuck Canadians!”

[–] kent_eh@lemmy.ca 10 points 1 year ago

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

[–] hddsx@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Alberta Premier, US President Elect, ???

[–] Fenrisulfir@lemmy.ca 9 points 1 year ago

Boat murderer.

Kevin O'Sleazy

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

[–] masterofn001@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago

Allow me to summarize:

Pillage, Plunder, and Payoff.

[–] smallpatatas@lemm.ee 6 points 1 year ago

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

So treason it is then?
