Canadian elbows are well and truly up again after Trump described Prime Minister Mark Carney as ‘the future governor of Canada’ – 21 clapbacks

Just when you thought it was safe to go back to Tim Horton’s, Donald Trump has started making colonising noises about the US’s northern neighbour once more.

We can’t rule out the possibility that the Orange Oaf in the Oval Office has been seething ever since the Canadian prime minister Mark Carney condemned his attack on Iran in no uncertain terms.

Mark Carney just B*TCH-SLAPPED the Orange Pedophile, saying Trump's attacks on Iran are a violation of international law.

On Monday, the two leaders spoke on the phone.

I spoke with President Trump this afternoon on a range of issues, including the economy, developments in the Middle East, and trade relations between our two countries — and we agreed to stay in close contact.

We don’t know the full details of their call, but unless PM Carney told Trump to swivel on it, we can’t imagine that it justified this Truth Social insult just a day later.

We’d have thought he had enough on his plate with an expensive and deeply unpopular war in the Middle East, without returning to 2025’s greatest hits. Greenland might want to avoid any phone calls with Trump for the time being.

Twitter wasn’t impressed. Especially Canadian Twitter.

It's almost as if the president of the most powerful nation in the history of the earth is a demented old bigot who has completely lost his fucking mind.

Back to this again.

The Canadian politicians and right wing media types who flirt with this bullshit have to be the biggest fucking marks in the history of fucking marks.

Prime Minister Mark Carney is a brilliant man who is highly educated in economics and built most of his career in international finance and central banking.

Does intellectually challenged Trump, seriously think he gives a fuck about his juvenile insults? pic.twitter.com/weUViWakHG

Canada, most Americans are embarrassed by this rude and childish statement by Trump. He is a demented narcissist. Republicans who support this statement are just pure evil.

Another reason why no political party in Canada should support Trump or his horrific war experiments, and why they should all defend international law at all times: the U.S. doesn't respect us or our sovereignty. https://t.co/xXpcJnVaIh

Carney should refer to Trump as “the future convicted war criminal Donald Trump”
