Lot of respect to him for being able to sit through that without losing their cool, you lose Trump when you do that imo. He pressed when he knew he could press, and kept enough praises going when suitable to keep leading him on to keep talking.
Jonathan is an excellent interviewer, been following him for a while now.

Can you believe he's only 35 years old?

Watching the full interview, I can't help but compare Obama, and how if he carried himself in such a manner during an interview, how quickly the Republicans would have the pitchforks out.

I cannot comprehend how anyone can support this man. Imagine if a CEO of any Fortune 500 company conduct himself in an interview like this? Do Trump supporters really think this represents a knowledgeable and competent individual?

Compared to themselves, yes

I mean, when the highlights of your day are either:

- robbing other people for money in the stock market, embezzling, committing fraud and dodging taxes

OR

- figuring out which domestic beer gets you drunk faster (cuz imports are for fucking foreigners)

Trump probably seems like either a very advantageous and/or smart guy to have as your president

You really see the parallels of how Trump debates in relation to other right-wing folks. The constant interruptions, the lack of addressing actual posed facts, the meandering and ramblings of the same incorrect statements and ideas.

He beats you with his bullshit while ignoring any questions or counter arguments, you essentially have to simply give up and move on, as exampled in this interview. His supporters will look that as "owning" the interviewer.

Feels like political arguments on this forum.

Have you watched literally anything trudeau says in the house of commons or in a committee hearing? It isn't a "right wing folks" thing. It's a shitty politician thing. Morneau is just as bad. And so is Freeland when she has to speak. It's like the liberals goto trainings on how to divert and it's embarrassing.

Of course I have, your issue is with politician speak then, which I also detest. Trudeau has never been known as a master orator, quite the contrary, in fact. I don't think he's a proficient speaker at all, he's rather rudimentary.

I however have never seen Trudeau conduct himself or speak in an interview in such a piss poor manner as Trump.

I'm not here caping for Trudeau, my comparison was to Obama.

Obama was one of the best leader speakers in recent history. Its one of the main reasons he is held in such high regard, after not really achieving much during his presidency.

You directly stated it was a "right wing folks" thing. I was pointing out that the left wing leadership in canada is equally embarrassing, or perhaps more so.

Trump is thinking about women's legs when he says "Thighland" instead of Thailand? Bunker boy cannot read. That explains his use of "Thighland."

Donny boy said last year that he wanted to buy Greenland. I think he meant to say "Groinland".

My brother was in a few of the same classes as Trudeau was way back in UBC, and according to him, Trudeau was often a fantastic speaker at the in-class presentations. His speeches were often very moving, and at times were able to move people to tears because of the bleeding heart leftard nature of his.

Apparently, he was also very popular among the lady classmates as well.

Of course, being in front of the same class that you spend an entire semester with, and being in front of a ton of "hostile" reporters with bloodlust on anything you might screw up on are 2 very different things.

As "useless" as Obama was, I don't really blame him for not being able to achieve very much during his presidency. But that's another discussion for another thread.

This happened 2 weeks ago but I didn't hear about it until now, too busy laughing at him

Trump signs series of executive orders aimed at lowering drug costs

PhRMA President and CEO Stephen J. Ubl said Trump was opening the country up for socialized health care.

It’s not, he was saying he’s too busy laughing at Trump to notice what Trump did.

Though it is somewhat amusing in an ironic sense that he would do something projected to be inherently socialistic given his rhetoric...

In the midst of the BLM movement, Biden picks a cop as VP.

Great choice:

It's totally a demographic pick

A lot of people are going to vote "anyone but Trump" and rightfully so

But because it's a two party system, there's no need for the dems to target actual "lefties" or whatever you want to call progressive minded people

They just play the center, and try to go after suburban folks who are right leaning but still think Trump is insane.

How does BLM feel about this? that'd be interesting to see how this nom swings things

Oh just googled it looks like the media is trying to swing blm over by saying "she did what she had to do"

And then you also get articles like this from more niche outlets
