Justin Trudeau taunts Donald Trump after Canada's hockey triumph
Justin Trudeau posted "you can't take our country" after hockey victory.
Summary
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau taunted Donald Trump after Canada defeated the United States 3-2 in overtime in the 4 Nations ice hockey competition in Boston.
Trudeau’s viral post, “You can’t take our country – and you can’t take our game,” came amid ongoing tensions between the leaders.
Trump, who previously mocked Trudeau as “Governor Trudeau” and floated annexing Canada, had earlier imposed tariffs on Canadian produce.
Amid boos of the American anthem and a surge in Canadian nationalism, the rivalry highlights both political and sporting divisions between the nations.
You're viewing part of a thread.
Being offended is not quickly forgotten. Ever hear the phrase "it's not what you say, it's how you make people feel"? That's because emotions are held for a loonngg time. Next time tariffs come up it's just a feeling of "Trudeau's an asshole, fuck him and Canada".
No one threatens the sovereignty of another nation in a credible way and gets away with it. Pushback is necessary.
Push back but don't taunt. Don't taunt a fucking idiot who's holding a knife.
Don't forget, he already hates Trudeau, and probably won't love his successor either.
And this isn't helping. It's only adding fuel to the fire. FFS, why are you so intent on being a stick in the mud.
Doesn't that imply your plan is to put out the fire? That's not an option.
FFS, why are you so intent on being a stick in the mud.
I feel like we haven't been at this nearly long enough for that distinction. It hasn't even been an hour.
Seriously? No, not adding more fuel means NOT ADDING MORE FUEL. Let Trump get distracted with the next thing, god knows there's enough, and let this thing peter out.
And so you are a stick in the mud. Thanks, lets me know who I'm conversing with. Not worth it. Ciao.
Bye.
