Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau fell silent for more than 20 seconds during a press conference Tuesday, after he was asked what he thought of US President Donald Trump forcefully dispersing protestors and calling for military intervention Monday night. During the lengthy pause, Trudeau appeared uncomfortable. Expressions shifted across his face as he seemed to consider his response, before ultimately side-stepping the question.
There is systemic discrimination in Canada, which means our systems treat Canadians of color, Canadians who are racialized differently than they do others."Top Republican senators defend Trump's church photo-op after peaceful protesters cleared outRead MoreOn Monday evening, peaceful protesters in Washington, DC, were dispersed with tear gas, flash grenades and rubber bullets, clearing the way for Trump to stage a photo op at the nearby St. John's Episcopal Church.
Nope, the POTUS needs to be called out (silence or 'taking a knee' isn't enough when a trade partner is not only inciting abuse of human rights but actively engaged in such abuse)
Fake Chinese News Network gossips, fake Trudeau, fake liberals. All of you ain't a match for President Trump. You can only gossip against someone greater than you. It can only go one way.
So many here bringing up the past which he claimed and apologized already. Isn't that what we all want? Owning your mistakes then make the effort to become a better person? Nobody is perfect. He's changed and now a much better man and a leader. Recognize that.
I mean if you want to be diplomatic what can u say?
Thank you for finally speaking up.
But his businesses and homes are not being burned to the ground so...
Trump is trash & all the world knows it !
We are very proud of JT - he is a caring man who ♥️ 🇨🇦 dearly and will do his best for Cnds We TRUST him. We can forgive blunders bc we know they are not intentionally- I COULD NOT imagine JT doing or saying the things Trump has. Canada would lose their minds! DumpTrump2020
I want to move to Canada bc I hate what Trump is doing to our country 😱😭
Why the silence,the protest is being hijacked by miscreants and purpose is about to defeated. Trump on point
I wish these leaders would or could say what they really think of our POS President
Was he thinking of next year’s Halloween costume?
US President. No need to pause the little man is terrified
He was WTFing... speechless
It’s all white Americans bringing up the “blackface incident.” 😂🤦🏼♂️
Then he said it was a perfect horror show. A shitstorm.
Well, if you were real journalists and not a left wing propaganda site you’d know that California did the same thing after loosing control over LA 1992 (Rodney King riots). The governor initiated military intervention! FakeNews LiberalMedia
1S. How dare this reporter ask that question? 2S. Well, it's hard for me to denounce it, of course. 3S, uh, I have to organize the language to make the answers seem impassioned.
Come on JT, we need you to call bullshit for us when no one else is standing up for the people!YouUsedToHaveAPair
Don't have guts to call spade a spade
For 21 seconds in his head he was just saying to self… ‘Donald Trump is an idiot’
What's with the stupid beard? He's such a handsome fellow, why would he want to do that? Hasn't anyone told him?
Good speech as canadian Leader
ajitanjum Incident and protests happening in US are very commonly seen and easily ignored unfortunately in India since 2014 mainly after the BJP govt came into power Sadly world remained silent after much worse riots that took place in Delhi this year and many many incidents seen daily
So all think that the president ordered troops so he can dictate people 🙄 or to stop the looters and intruders from destroying businesses and burning them down so people don’t suffer anymore losses.
ajitanjum World needs more leaders like him JustinTrudeau who are compassionate and who are emotionally grounded Not like current leaders like MOdi Trump netanyahu or even borris
Soy boy
Teleprompter frozen...
Pausing for 20 seconds and then sidestepping the question basically means he doesn't want to step on any toes, which is only saying he's afraid of repercussions one way or another. He said nothing.
Why on earth would any of us care?
This is nothing new for him. When he doesn’t have his answers memorized this is what you get. Most of the time his answers are not related to the question asked.
America is falling apart and our leadership is absolutely terrible. Trump failed us.
Some silences said more than thousands words
It’s called diplomacy which Trump doesn’t adhere to.
Inner he also knows that he is not doing good. He setting a wrong example for World.
There is nothing upstairs in this man. And the world forgot about his multiple blackface moments.
Don’t poke other”s nose and face up your own racial injustice in Canada budfy. Send blacks back to Africa including Obama Hussein..,
He's stunned as he presumed all Western brainless guys will behave and smart however he found different reaction completely! Karma
Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau paused for 21 seconds before answering a question about Trump's response to protesters. Which is like what, 28 seconds American?
No teargas was used.
The pain is heavy, he felt it. He formulated a coherent response! He’s a much better leader than Trump, who thinks before he speaks.
LMAO. Why did the chicken cross the road? For a photo op that backfired on him!!
Your people are ignorant I painted my face black for Halloween Michael Jackson tried to be white and Sammy sosa that's not offensive being ignorant is.
Trump maybe be a great businessman but never a great president....
blondsurgeon Did u ever think to be just Beth Walford
There is nothing good to say so I’m assuming he is choosing his words very carefully. We all know how petty and vindictive realDonaldTrump can be especially when foreigners are concerned. They make easy targets.
emmmm
Who in the world cares what that soft sell thinks? Oh I know cnn and Liberals. Stick to Canada Justin. IngrahamAngle TuckerCarlson GerryCallahan gehrig38 RealJamesWoods
Well maybe he's as dumb as the CNN journalist.
That’s what wishy washy politicians do!
The military should be called in it has to stop
He is a honourable man, in my view. Frank and straightforward unlike the cunning, deceitful, egotistical and selfish man in the White House.
Was pansy soi boi RACIST Trudeau wearing BLACK FACE then? Did you ever report THAT? Hell no you didnt.
On over his head.
that is how a leader speaks to his people.....
Silence says it all
Because he was stoned.
So many people on here saying Trudeau is no better for something he did decades ago & apologized repeatedly for....no comparison between our PM and the racist madman in charge south of the border! Trudeau is as speechless as the rest of us & carefully thought before speaking.
What a terrible leader.
So idiots would rather have criminals destroy people’s lives rather than hurt people’s feelings?
Ese maricon y toda la gleba globalista están desesperados por qué saben que Trump va a barrer con la momia de Joe biden, los días del globalismo van a llegar cuando todos los que amamos la justicia y las buenas costumbres nos levantemos y estamos a poco de hacerlo
Liberals talking to liberals...I wonder what they would say.
Who gives a fck? CNN is the EnemyOfThePeople & needs to be shut down. ShutDownCNN
Was that before or after he washed the blackface off?
The silence says it all.
Who cares what a Canadian thinks? Especially a basic b-tch like Mr. Blackface
Who gives a flying F&$ what the worst PM in Canada’s history freaking thinks? Oh... judging by the responses, NO ONE!
tuser5555 America is embarrassing as hell right now.
A thoughtful response, how refreshing. I think the pause was perfect & conveyed his sorrow, disbelief and disgust without words - it's beyond words. We all need to do what we can in our daily lives and must vote for leaders that stand for unity, equality and change. voteblue
so what
something he should do too
Let's not pretend like Trudeau isn't a racist too. He's just more subtle about it.
And why do we care what the fuck that pin dick has to say? Bend over and take it harder CNN✌️TrumpNowMoreThanEver
And here we go CNN that was you plan all the time. Governor's let their cities burn until trump comes in with military so now u can accused him of racist. Thanks god people are seeing the violence in those so called protests. Trump2020
He's such a coward who cares what he says
SILENCE SPEAKS VOLUMES!
Wait. What? You’re using our little potato as you’re measuring stick of what good policy is? Haha haha hahahhh aaaahhh Haha haha hahahhh aaaahhh Oh, you’re serious? Haha haha hahahhh aaaahhh Haha haha hahahhh aaaahhh hahahhh aaaahhh. Haha haha hahahhh aaaahhh Haha haha haha!
He has no guts to say anything before his daddy Trump Lol
Mr Trudeau has empathy, and is emotional as we all are in this horrific incident which took the life of Mr. Floyd. He was a kid when he did the 'black face' and has apologized many times! Thankyou Justin for being real person!
🥑🥑🥑🤮🤮🤮
He paused because his earpiece failed, simultaneously thinking what he could say to make ‘everyone’ happy: Dictator Xi POTUS Canadians (which btw he called all of us racists) & worn Black Face at least 5x. Canada is laughing at the slant international news is implying
That's class. Instead of verbally having a dick measuring contest like someone would, he stays silent. Speaks louder than words.
This person JustinTrudeau literally just racially divided the nation he “represents” by banning certain firearms to everyone except our indigenous. Practice what you preach or don’t preach.
Because Trudeau is such a weakling!
It’s understandable. If you lived in an apartment and the tenant below you was a psychopath, meth cooking, serial killer you probably aren’t going to pound on his door and ask him to turn down his music when he’s blasting Slayer at 3:00 am.
Life of Black man is now risky globally unbelievable
He's shocked, like any other world leader would be. US is supposed to be the moral compass of the world. If he keeps the borders shut separating from the US, who can blame him.
The guy who did Black face.... really
He was calling realDonaldTrump a giant, zamboni sized fucktard in his head the whole time. Just stopped himself from saying it out loud.
Idiot!
No words
North_Resists I laugh every time I see this. Such Canadian passive aggression.
Who cares Crap News Network
That tells you everything right there. He literally had NO WORDS. Absolutely SPEECHELESS at what he is seeing from adolf trumpler... Which we all feel as well.
