You should hear him speak.

[–] BestBouclettes@jlai.lu 5 points 5 days 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 5 days 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 5 days ago

Absolutely, it will go down from scary to terrifying

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

He is legitimately senile.

[–] GraniteM@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days 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 days ago

I just see 3 traitors.

[–] Doom@ttrpg.network 24 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Lmfao he looks so fucking old

[–] CitizenKong@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days 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 16 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days 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 5 days ago

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

[–] cyborganism@lemmy.ca 12 points 6 days ago

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

Very strictly speaking.

"Grifters United"

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

[–] Sunshine@lemmy.ca 13 points 6 days ago

The ones who want to exploit the people of Canada.

[–] Luci@lemmy.ca 13 points 6 days 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 days ago

Gotta smell like a diaper change is needed too..

What kind of a fuckwad wears a white suit in January

Kenin O'Leary.

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

“HaHa! We are so gonna fuck Canadians!”

[–] dankm@lemmy.ca 4 points 5 days ago

So treason it is then?

[–] hddsx@lemmy.ca 7 points 6 days ago (2 children)

Alberta Premier, US President Elect, ???

[–] Fenrisulfir@lemmy.ca 8 points 6 days 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 6 days ago

Allow me to summarize:

Pillage, Plunder, and Payoff.

[–] smallpatatas@lemm.ee 6 points 6 days 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
