Justin Trudeau wore brownface and now faces calls for his resignation

from the “early 1990s” in which it reports Trudeau can be seen wearing blackface and “raising his hands in the air while laughing, sticking his tongue out and making faces.” Trudeau’s campaign admitted that the video is authentic, the paper reports.)

Trudeau said that politicians need to be judged on a “case by case basis” when assessing past behavior. “If everyone who is running for office needs to demonstrate that they’ve been perfect every step of their lives,” he said, “there’s going to be a shortage of people running for office.”

First all college kids do stupid things, second it was 20 years ago when the view on such things was less defined so viewing it through today's lense as if he just did it is completely ignorant. Trump does more offensive things every day.

This is sad.

19 years ago people!!

Who said anything about resignation? If it was anybody from the hateful Conservative party, no one listens to them, except other hateful mouth breathers.

Hey? As liberals howl with squeals that this photo “is nothing”, this it’s “Not that big a deal. He should never resign” I just want you to know that the NYT’s is reporting this hour that there are now MULTIPLE photos surfacing of him in blackface. Multiple. 1 time makes a racist

🙄Let's talk about Trump for a minute

Resignation? Ok then.

No! Don’t resign for that! He made a stupid mistake!

Oh come on. I don’t approve it at all. But impeachment? Take a look at some real scandal down below

Is brownface worse than blackface or the other way round?

If this were Trump the headline would be: 'Donald Trump is a White Supremicist and Should Resign'

Why should Justin have to resign? He’s a clown - and clowns often wear strange clothes and make up. It’s very kind of the Canadian people to have elected this guy so that the rest of us get to have a great laugh. Long may it continue!

What’s “brownface”?
