Poilievre showed more class, dignity and credibility in 15 seconds than Trudeau in 8 miserable years

As an American. I'd 100% take Poilievre over any guy we got here

[gejugfeguug]

"we do too unfortunately", he actually said it out loud!

[vrtxttb]

When Biden said " we do too, unfortunately..." that statement means more than most can fathom.
It was an actual moment of coherency for Biden.

[frazer]

Love that he uses his full title as His majesty’s leader of the opposition. Love our brothers in 🇨🇦. Old school respect

[SotonSam]

As a Brit, living in Canada, I respect how he introduced himself 🇬🇧

[alaska]

You can feel the respect Pierre had for Canada

[torreyintahoe]

Poilievre is a class act. He's exactly what Canada needs.

[TheMikethoth]

As a subject of the UK, give me Canada's loyal opposition any day.

Poilievre managing to make Biden laugh was certainly unexpected but welcome.

Poilievre: Mr. President. Pierre Poilievre, Leader of His Majesty's Loyal Opposition.

Biden: Loyal Opposition?

Poilievre: Absoultely. We believe that opposition is an act of loyalty in our [society].

Biden: We do too. We do too, unfortunately.

[British_loyalist]

I slaute you from London 🇬🇧
Absolute class

[marilynhaley]

Look at Pierre smiling ear to ear at Trudeau..hahaha

[tindlevibes]

The entire continent needs more Poillievre! 🍎

[yrukdesigner]

The world is starting to take an interest in Canadian Politics due to this Pierre chap. He's very interesting and seemingly the cure to Justin failure.

[wdoxsee]

Very proud to be a Canadian. Poilievre is an old school gentleman, who are sorely lacking not only in parliament but in all walks of modern life.

[joelzinho]

Biden said, we do too "unfortunately", wow..lol.

[js]

Class, dignity and respect. Contrast that with "We do too unfortunately." says it all.

[garrettobrien]

I’m sorry but “we do too….unfortunately” did no one catch that??

[xdddmry]

Biden: "We do too...unfortunately..." What a jerk. So embarrassing.
