    Well that was quick. Kinda get the feeling Carney didn’t outright reject the invite knowing that Trump would revoke it out of pettiness sooner or later. Now Trump feels like he “got him” while really he did exactly what we wanted him to do.

    I honestly love this.

    Any idiot could see Trump’s Circlejerk of Peace was nothing but a scam to make him feel important and possibly scam some money. He would be the Chairman of the board forever (LOL) with deciding powers on everything (LOL).

    He’s basically trying to build another meeting group like he has at the White(power) House where his mouthbreathing MAGA minions fellate his ego. He wants this from other world leaders.

    This one post proves how the Circlejerk would never allow anything but Trump cocksuckery. If you disagree with Trump, he’d kick you out on his Temu Twitter.

    He’s a pathetic infant.

    The world will be in a better place when I can take a Taco Bell shit on his grave.

    “Greatest leaders ever assembled”

    <looks at list>

    • Israel/Netanyu (Dictator)
    • Russia/Putin (Dictator)
    • Hungary/Orban (Dictator)
    • Pakistan (Religious Autocracy)
    • UAE (massive, massive human rights violations and religious theocracy)
    • Argentina/Milei (Dictator wannabe)
    • Qtar (also massive human rights violations and religious theocracy)
    • Saudi Arabia/Farhan Al Saud (Dictator and religious theocracy)
    • Turkey/Erdoğan (Dictator)
    • Morocco/Bahrain/Bulgaria/Indonesia/Jordan/Kazakhstan/Kosovo/Paraguay/Uzbekistan/Mongolia

    <looks at list of people not signing>

    • The entire western world outside the US (this isn’t hyperbole)
    • Every single European nation (outside of the dictator led ones like Turkey)
    • Canada
    • The UK
    • etc. etc.

    Guys. I know he’s an idiot, but I genuinely believe he thinks all those dictators are actually great leaders. Like, I honestly believe he believes this shit. It’s not an act.

    Still, that in/out crowd is like a one note song that tells anyone everything they need to know about what his board of peace actually represents.

        To be fair, someone handing this out to someone in-person is probably an asshole. Sure, you can blame someone else for being upset, or you can blame yourself for being a dick.

        If someone gets upset for no good reason then fine, that’s on them. I tend to try not to purposefully upset people though. I hope most people agree.

          As I mentioned in different responses, this was at a demolition company. The joke landed really well with all the workers, but an office person came for a site visit and kicked up fuck when they saw it.

          The work culture could be considered toxic, I suppose, but if one of the workers was legitimately having a hard time everyone else was supportive. This actually landed really well as an inside joke.

        PP will somehow find a way to whine about it anyway. Probably blame Carney for Canada “missing out” on the “opportunity” to join Trump’s prestigious new organization (five dictators in a raincoat).

    It’s crazy that Trump is rejecting America’s loyal allies. Soldiers from these allies fought and died in Afghanistan and Iraq, under American leadership. Instead Trump is inviting dictators to his “Board of Peace” such as Putin and Lukashenko.

        True. Some people think that Russia controls Trump in some way, but maybe it’s just that Trump has always had a desire to make friends with autocrats, and the Russians recognised that, so they did what they could to boost his chances of becoming president.

          Simpler is to just bash colonies for not being grateful and submissive enough. Easy war to win. It is a huge disservice to colonies to engage in (fully CIA driven) Russophobia propaganda, because their political capital is tied to all previous supported US empire lies.

          Carney’s speech was great, but no colony, including Canada, has reversed its acceptance of a single US empire lie since then.

            (fully CIA driven) Russophobia propaganda

            There are genuine reasons to be wary of Russia. Russia is currently invading Europe, causing a horrific amount of death and destruction in Ukraine. Russia has also been sending assassins across Europe to kill dissidents - e.g. the assassins sent to England to poison Sergei Skripal, and the assassin sent to Germany to shoot Zelimkhan Khangoshvili.

            Trump is predatory, but I would say Putin is even more predatory. At least Trump isn’t (yet) sending assassins to murder dissidents.

              Ukraine is a US proxy war on Russia 100% decided by US. EU is supporting the lie and fanning Russophobia through BS in desperation of keeping the war going for 0 benefit to them. Tieing your prosperity and happiness to war on Russia will turn out as well as it did for followers of Napoleon and Hitler. The good relations that existed prior to 2022, other than covid, made US colonies more prosperous.

              At least Trump isn’t (yet) sending assassins to murder dissidents.

              Bribed traitors with operational knowledge to damage genuine national security/military are far more valid targets than Gary Webb, JFK, MLK, 9/11, Jeffrey Epstein, or Boeing whisteblowers.

                Ukraine is a US proxy war on Russia

                The US didn’t make Ukraine invade Russia to start the conflict. Instead, Russia (unprovoked) invaded Crimea and the Donbas in 2014.

                Tieing your prosperity and happiness to war on Russia

                I don’t think Europe at all wants to have a fight with Russia. People just want Russia to stop attacking Ukraine.

                The good relations that existed prior to 2022

                Russia’s relations with Europe were torn up by Russia, when they invaded Crimea and the Donbas in 2014.

                  The US didn’t make Ukraine invade Russia to start the conflict. Instead,

                  2014 coup with installed US puppet government broke lease with Russian military port in Crimea, and began ethnic cleansing operation against its ethnic Russian minority. Russia pursued for 8 years a peaceful resolution through Minsk accords, which west used only as a delay tactic to arm Ukrainian nazi regime for war on Russia. To this day, EU/Canada losers desperately derail any peace in Ukraine and support nazi regime’s perpetual terrorist operation rights. So, yes, all NATO colonies are trying to sell you prosperity through war on Russia, and doing so, based on the lies you repeat.
