Yes from the Oval office.

I thought they were going to announce some things they've talked about, but it sounds like they will meet privately AFTER this media presser.

As a Canadian, I am embarrassed that our government has to sit and listen to this disgusting drivel of a blithering idiot. You can tell Carney is really having to bite his tongue. Stay cool and be strong.

Trump is all over the place as usual. Now he’s pissing and moaning about Gavin Newsom and California, saying if they had done what he told them to do, the fires wouldn’t have been as bad.

After about 15 minutes I had to tap out... Carney has my respect for being able to sit through this.

A couple of times you could tell that he wanted to jump in and correct the orange idiot on some of his ridiculous made-up bulls***. It probably took all of his strength not to say anything.

Honestly, I would be totally fine with Carney getting up and leaving as soon as 51st state is mentioned.

Give me a call when you want to be serious.

That little ####ing smirk the orange goblin made when Carney said we will never be for sale…. Just a repugnant piece of ####.

I’m actually surprised at how much he backed off on offensive talk when asked about Canada being 51st state. “It takes two to tango”, “(military) we’d still defend you if anything happened”, but just talked in circles so you could pull enough sound bites out to make it sound like he hasn’t changed his mind on anything. He is a nonsense spewing child.

It's like you guys want to be mad. You have every reason to obviously be annoyed, but you are choosing to watch something you knew would piss you off. It's a bit masochistic.

I don't know why you're choosing to read your cancer treatment plan, it's just going to upset you, why are you doing this to yourself

For the most part I generally stay away from watching any of this garbage. Just hearing Trump’s stupid annoying voice makes me sick. But today it directly involves my country, so I’m a little more invested. After today I’ll go back to ignoring it.

I watched because I am extremely interested about updates about tariffs.

I'll say this: Carney is smart as a whip.

Yeah it's odd wanting to see how our newly elected PM handles issues like the guy threatening our sovereignty.

So USMCA, greatest deal ever!, was transitional? Carney will jump all over that and make a better deal.

The schtick you’ve got going where you provide some meta commentary/mocking of people’s reactions to things is less interesting to everyone than having an actual opinion on the thing, FYI.

Typing “don’t do things that upset you” on a Calgary Flames fan forum is hilarious on its own. This place would be Sliver typing out rants to himself.

He was nice to Bill Maher at a dinner.

We're fine. Calm down.
