Donald Trump interfered in the Canadian elections and it was an epic own goal so big it was visible from space – 17 hilarious and totally on-point takedowns

Donald Trump is no stranger to a foreign country trying to interfere in a nation’s democratically held elections, but that’s enough about Russia for the moment.

The US president, as you will know, is pathologically determined to make Canada the 51st state of the United States, and said as much on the eve of Canada’s elections in a bid to boost the country’s Conservative party’s chances.

Except Trump’s attempt to sway the election towards the Conservatives had precisely the opposite effect, helping to elect Liberal (and former Bank of England governor) Mark Carney just months after it appeared his party was totally and utterly dead and buried.

And if you want to see the true impact of Trump then just have a look at this, a graph comparing the fortunes of the Liberals and Conservatives, and what happened when the US president stuck his stupid oar in.

Extraordinary scenes, and finally we something for which we can thank Donald Trump.

And these hilarious and totally on-point takedowns surely said it best.
