      … entirely seriously, he does not seem to be able to actually stand up straight.

      There are hundreds or thousands of photos where he is like this, this very strange forward posture.

      He… almost certainly has some kind of diagnosable posture/spine related condition.

        IIRC this is when trump tried his yanking handshake but Trudeau was ready for it, and I guess Trump refused to take a step forward

        IIRC, the long-standing rumor is that he’s got heel lifts in his shoes to make himself seem taller.

          heel lifts in his shoes

          Also, make-up, hair job, false eyebrows, girdle, and wears pampers.

          His VP wears eye-liner.

          While highly probable, that alone doesn’t cause one to stand like this. There must be some insane degree of anterior pelvic tilt going on.

            Perhaps it’s a weird compensation issue because he never learned to walk right with them. Like I’m 5’5 with a bit of an odd posture at times, his posture really vaguely looks like mine when I get new boots. Mind you after a week I’m moving in work boots like they’re leather gymnastics boots but still. Though there’s also the difference that I favor my right shoulder with my lean.

                Trudeau is 6’2", and the two men appear about the same height in that photo. In images of the 2016 Republican debate, he appears to be only slightly taller than Ted Cruz (5’10"), and not even close to as tall as Jeb Bush (6’3").

          Look at the left shoe. It’s already got a good size heel, plus the crease where the flex for the toe joints would be is just a couple inches below the laces. Dudes got high heels and lift inserts. Probably a good 3+ inches.

          I think Desantis did the same thing, his boots had the creases way high up plus a way higher bridge in the boot to compensate for the lifts.

        It’s the downside of being such a massive asshole, if he stood straight he’d fall backwards.

            It got added to the Olympics in 2016, which if anything confirms my theory that any “sport” added to the Olympics in the last 10 years or so has been added solely so white people can win some medals.

    If that’s how Zelenskyy has to hold his dick, it’s got to be massive.

    More seriously, Zelenskyy stands up to Putin.
    Why would be be scared of trump, who doesn’t?

    Trump is such a weak, insecure and petulant man.

        They should have thought about consequences when doing 2013 coup, then not abiding by Minsk accords, then refusing to settle in 2022 (both before the invasion and in turkey).

          Zelenskyy wasn’t president in 2013. The revolution in Ukraine isn’t a pretext for the invasion of Crimea.

          Also, the treatment of people in Luhansk and Donetsk is wayyyyyy overblown for propaganda purposes. I have family in Ukraine. Why is Russia bombing civilians in Kyiv, Odessa and many more cities? What has the people done?

          You speak of Minsk accords, what about the Budapest memorandum? What about attacking and breaking many ceasefires?

          What about Bucha? Putin is a war criminal and the whole of Europe and Canada is supporting Ukraine against this war. Biden was too, now Trump has turned his back on the world and came towards his master Putin. How about that « baby »?

          Russia is an imperial country and wants nothing less than to destroy the West. Why do you wish for that?

      Aside from Trump, you must be the dumbest person in any room if you think rewarding Russia for invading Ukraine is a good move. History has shown those of us who know it that imperialist conquest must be met with all kinds of forceful opposition.

      It was already a mistake for the world (including the US under Obama) for not pushing back hard when Russia took Crimea, and it would be an even bigger one to let them take another huge slice of Ukraine today.

      Ukraine has paid their fair share in this war–they have paid with the blood of their people. But dumbfuck Trump is so desperate to give his “buddy” Putin a win here, and to join in the shakedown of Ukraine for “mineral rights” that wont mean fuck all when Russia continues his campaign and takes the rest of the country. Like seriously, what fucking good will all those minerals be worth when they end up within Russia’s borders?

      It’s the dumbest plan of all time, it’s a shakedown of a nation that has already been invaded, and if we give up on Ukraine it will ultimately lead to a broader war that Europe and USA will have to fight themselves, because there will be no Ukrainians left to fight on our behalf.

      This is the darkest moment in American geopolitical history. We can’t even pretend to be a country of values or valor anymore. We’re a pathetic country of greedy short-sighted cowards in ill-fitting business suits and we are inviting the war to us.

              So your logic is that Ukraine shouldn’t forcibly draft citizens into the military because otherwise, they’ll be just like Russia? You know what happens when they don’t have enough soldiers to fight off Russia? They become Russia

              I’m sure your boss at the Russian troll farm would advise you to move on from this one.

              Also, there is a very clear and distinct difference between Ukraine and Russia. Ukraine attempted peaceful cease-fire agreements, Russia didn’t listen.

I hope everyone here can realize that your post is more propagandistic than everything i ever wrote.

                If you are ok with the government drafting people by force and are against peace and negotiations you should pack your bags and go to the front eitherway you are just a coward exploiting other people.
