Trump Claims Justin Trudeau is Fidel Castro's Son - Canada Goes Ape Sh*t on DJT 🇨🇦

Daily Kos, Sept. 14, 2024. Trump Claims Justin Trudeau Is Fidel Castro's Son: Canada Goes Ape Sh**t on DJT. justin-trudeau-7856790_1280.jpg

No, Trump, Justin Trudeau Is Not Castro's Son
You have to take a deep breath at the audacity of Trump’s derangement.

If it isn’t enough evidence of his severe cognitive decline that he is continuing to tout the malicious and baseless claim that Haitian immigrants are eating pets in Ohio, he is now going international in his likely Alzheimer’s induced cauldron of mentally unsound conspiracy theories that live rent free inside his brain (or what’s left of it).

According to Politico, Trump is making the crazed claim that Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is the son of Fidel Castro, marking his Laura Loomer-style conspiracy theories going international. The (yes, yet again bizarre) assertion is made in a soon-to-be released coffee table book (photos with Trump commentary) that Canadian officials got a heads-up on, and they are demanding the book not be released until the defamatory claims are removed:

[Lloyd] Axworthy, a former foreign minister, acknowledges he can speak much more freely than anyone on Trudeau’s team right now. He says he’s speaking out because Trump is breaking an “unwritten rule” of diplomacy that leaders refrain from publicly interfering in the affairs of a foreign country in an “underhanded” way. “I have a sense that as he grows older, he’s losing any sense of restraint. We saw that in the debate the other night, where he’s repeating this thing about Haitian immigrants eating cats and dogs.”

Two former high-ranking Canadian government officials called the bonkers assertion “vile, vulgar, and deeply offensive.”.

In the book, Trump cites as evidence for his demented charge: Trump writes in his new coffee-table book that Trudeau’s mother, Margaret, was “somehow associated” with Castro and notes that “a lot of people say that Justin is his son. The former president adds: “He swears that he isn’t but how the hell would he know! Castro had good hair, the ‘father’ didn’t, Justin has good hair, and has become a Communist just like Castro.”

Many thanks to our neighbors to the north, who abide by civility and good government, to push back against the deviant to their south. ---

Is Donald just ignorant of Pierre Trudeau? Is that one of the facts that his left his head for good. I think his a little brain is just twisting around in there. There’s so much space in that big skull. He may just collapse from exhaustion with all these conspiracy theories.

It's hilarious to me that Trump evidently thinks "good hair" is some kind of acid test for determining paternity! Someone needes to explain the genetics of male pattern baldness to him, including how it is often passed down through the maternal line!

It was easy to find a side by side image of Justin and Pierre with one quick search. To do that with Castro, I'd have to do 2 separate searches, find 2 separate photos, upload each one to postimages, and copypasta 2 separate links into a DU post.

It would be an interesting experiment, but I just don't have time right now.

accusations are coming right and left from tRUMP and is basically defaming people. Seize any tRUMP property and hold it until the lawsuit gets settled (if any property is in Canada).

This constant rambling on by tRUMP, these stream of vindictive, and the insults will keep going on and on, until there is a concerted effort by everyone who's been slighted to nail the POS, and sue him for every penny he has or ever will have.

Think. Again.

That's what is so stupid about this story. It's easy to refute this argument.

Just because your father is bald doesn't mean you will be bald. Your hair/lack of hair comes from the x gene, so look to your mother's father. If Grandpa has a good head of hair, that's most likely what you'll get too.

(Chump has a fixation about hair and he's using it to stir up trouble.)

Of course Putin's puppets do all the heavy lifting and dirty work for him.

I think Vance, Loomer, and others are giving him these ideas to spout in public.
Trump is not coming up with this nonsense on his own.

Get Joe to call out the Guard, make the anoouncement then dare the magats to take action. Because it will happen and there's no sense waiting.

This certainly follows the Bannon theory: Flood the zone with shit so the population has difficulty in discerning fact from fiction.

But this behavior is getting so-o-o old and lame, particularly the personal attacks coming from a singularly unattractive, old bloated goat.

However, if your opponent insists on digging a hole, the maxim is to stand back and allow he/she to continue.

The man is an ongoing train wreck.

Sat Sep 14, 2024, 05:15 PM

Adderall is an effective treatment for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder ( ADHD), but a sharp rise in US prescriptions over the past two decades has sparked concerns among researchers about rare but serious side effects.

In a striking new study published Thursday, a team led by psychiatrist Lauren Moran of Mass General Brigham in Boston found that individuals taking high doses of the stimulant face more than a fivefold increased risk of developing psychosis or mania.

Or maybe desperation is making him pay attention to that nutbar Loomer. Whatever is going on, fewer and fewer will be able to ignore the lunacy.
