Lmao, anyone remember, when Trudeau was asked about the relationship with Trump and Kim, remember that long pause. LMFAO.

That silence before the response is actually quite powerful.

[bahsazad]

[Thafuface]

I'd say the script got delayed. There was no um ah's

[TanyerLamb]

I can't make a Starbucks order if caught off guard, let alone come up with an answer like this.

He’s just a Bot waiting for instructions through ear piece

They should of provided the option to call a friend. He is at a rock and a hard place.

To provoke someone who is demon possessed is very dangerous, hence the silence.
His first statement was telling Trump what to do without condemning him. Though he may know very well he would not listen.

[noon]

Strong statement without a single word

[dd-czps]

Insulting without words. Canadian are so polite and disciplined

[factcheck]

Lol anyone that can say Trump is better than Trudeau has officially failed the Turing test.

[Zigazaga]

You can’t just sandbag the whole country and our international relationships looking for sound bites. That is a poor way to be a “journalist”.
