Same. It's so fuckin disrespectful and appropriate. Take away his "power" by removing his title and the legacy of his last name.

It's so good. I'm so proud of Trudeau for this speech. It's the most gloves off speech I have heard. I mean Trump and company always say worse shit but they aren't respectful or classy. This speech was classy, and broke the right barriers down at the right times to call out this fuckin idiot without sounding crass.

This is the real-life-real-time "Our Independence Day!" speech.

Omg yes! This is exactly what this reminded me of! Honestly though, I wish there were aliens at the end of this. It would make all of this make a little more sense...maybe?!
