President Donald Trump was once again fact-checked following an embarrassing tantrum over a Canadian advertisement.
The ad quoted former U.S. President Ronald Reagan from 38 years ago criticizing tariffs – a policy tool Trump frequently employs. The commercial includes audio clips from an April 25, 1987 radio address where Reagan stated: "Over the long run such trade barriers hurt every American worker and consumer.‘’
As a Canadian I am utterly disgusted and livid that a Canadian ad running in Canada was removed, because Americas pedophile rapist president didnt like it. Keep that fascist shit on your side of the border
Okay, but what if I told you they only took it down because a Canadian plutocrat didn’t like it?
Would that be better?
Have you been paying any attention? There’s home homegrown fascists here with a love for the us. Maybe we need to clean up our own shit before we just blame the us
It was running in the US. The target demographic does not live in Canada.
This headline is shit. Trump does not feel humiliation.
Figure of speech. It is often said on a person’s behalf that someone was humiliated by something, regardless of how the person actually felt about it.
I’ve always interpreted the word both intransitively and transitively. No, he does not feel humiliation. He only cares about himself. However, he may have been humiliated from the perspective of the people who explained his mistake to him.
…and if there’s a danger he might, there is a plenty of former entertainment industry personnel to give him a rim job, so he can feel like a king again.
I read that the older you get the less you feel embarrassment.
I don’t think that he Can give a fuck at this point…
He’s not humiliated if he keeps doing it.
He’s never felt humiliation in his life. He doesn’t understand it.
Hmmm I’m not sure. I’m not a psychologist yet while reading 2020’s “Commander in Cheat: How Golf Explains Trump” I feel like he feel just enough humiliation in his childhood to NEVER want to have that feeling again. He would “win” (huge quotes here because the definition of winning remains entirely up to him) no matter what, in golf, politics, business.
So… he might not feel humiliation anymore but if so I bet it comes from possibly having felt a bit too much of it early on.
Yeah he has no shame at all. It’s only a week since he posted the AI thing with him wearing a crown and shitting on the American people.
I didn’t see that one. Got a link?
You have to have humility to feel humiliation…
“It was AI or something” is becoming mainstream idiot for “it was edited”
“someone hacked my account”
I’ve seen it applied to quite a few crude Photoshops already.
I think the real meaning is closer to “Me no like!”
Humiliation requires a sense of shame. Which does not exist in Trump’s world.
Yeah he’s just angry they aren’t bending the knee. This isn’t shame. He can’t feel shame.
To humiliate someone is to make him/her feel ashamed and foolish by injuring his/hers dignity.
Lack of dignity is:
- Lacking composure: Engaging in behavior that is inappropriate, unrefined, or embarrassing, like staggering or reeling across a room in a very undignified fashion.
- Demeaning others: Believing you can disregard the worth of others to make yourself feel more valuable.
- Dishonorable conduct: Engaging in acts that are considered shameful, discreditable, or in bad taste.
Ergo, you can’t humiliate someone without dignity.
Having humility is a prerequisite for being humiliated.
I dont think thats true, pride is required, humility is a (possoble) result.
Donal Trump posting AI videos on a daily basis: this is real
humiliated? i don’t think anyone over there is paying attention
Trump don’t get humiliated, he throws tantrums.
tbf the version of it i saw was an AI video over the audio.
Also it’s not exactly Reagan said in the order he said it, they moved a part of the speech
It’s a dying of shame kind of shame for normal people but pedos and rapists have no shame as it is.
He has no capacity to feel humiliated. He doesn’t care about the truth or facts. And most of his followers are the same way.
Except he does feel humiliation and I think he feels it more intense than most. I’m not a psychologist but it appears to me as one of his main motivations to do something. Because deep down he’s a deeply insecure little shit and all this strong man stuff is just a facade he puts up.
I would argue humiliation is what he fears above all else and that makes him lash out even stronger.
I get what you’re saying but this is a definition “Humiliation is the abasement of pride, which creates mortification or leads to a state of being humbled or reduced to lowliness or submission.”
That does not sound like what Trump feels or does. He may change what he says or actions but I don’t think it’s out of humiliation. But rather a narcissistic need to be liked. He still thinks others are wrong and he doesn’t care to change to help anyone but himself. No self reflection or thought that he could be wrong.
It’s still nice to see him look so hurt when it happens and would like to see more of it. From a jail cell would be great.
Yeah, he gets angry when contradicted, but never regrets or apologizes for it. In fact, usually he doubles down or pivots to whataboutism or other fallacies.
Definitely, he has a very fragile ego. I’m also not a psychologist and too lazy to look it up, but read smg about the two types of narcissm, vulnerable and grandiose, which have very different behaviours, but come from the same internal feeling of inferiority.
I actually worked with a client very much like him, absolutely incompetent with fragile ego, always playing powergames and trying to humiliate others. What was surprising to see is how hard it is to deal with them, they really exhausted me, and at the end I left the project looking worse than I could have with a normal person. They also openly abused everybody, peers and teammates, not just me the lowly service provider. And the results of his work was always horrendous: crunch hours, months of delays, missing features, etc. I only hear bad things about them from others, yet I always saw some people falling over themselves trying to please this horrible human being, and I couldn’t understand why.
It’s like some people are inherently drawn to these narcissists, while others are repulsed by them, and these two types don’t understand the others. I look at similar world “leaders” like Putin, Orban, or the South American chainsaw clown, and laugh at these idiots, yet millions are happily voting for them.
He’s angry he got caught being the piece of shit that he is. To him the problem is that the truth came out
During his first term I watched him cry at a sports match because the whole stadium booed him.
I would like to see this please.

Days that the majority of America did anything meaningful to deal with Trump: 0
Canada has a pretty far right bend right now, we’d love advice on how to fix it.
I think we should stop voting in ratchet liberals. And we need NDP to run on a platform of election reform.
Huh, sounds easy. How does one person do that?
How does one person do anything?

Are guns working for the states?
Canada is using guns to stop their far right? I think they have pretty strict gun laws.
They’re looking to the neighbors to the south and not seeing them doing anything different with their rights to a militia
I’d argue there are too many structural issues, all too established to ever fix. Trump is just abusing these with abandon instead of papering over them like often happened in the past.
The only hope at this point is that it’s so broken by the end that no amount of “tweaking” the current plan/formula is worth doing. Would at least be nice if the light at the end of the tunnel is that a whole new modern way of life will be possible to rebuild from the ashes. Even without trump breaking it further, the current plan wasn’t going well, long term. It’s going worse now, but in an unsustainable way. The old plan would have taken much longer to get this much worse.
will be possible to rebuild from the ashes
The problem is that the billionaires are thinking the same thing and their ideas for a "new modern way of life* are a bit different from the rest of the population.
Well, to be fair, I’m assuming a little French Revolution will be part of the current system burning down.
Copy that, build the guillotines fire proof.
Days with meaningful consequences for his actions: 0
He better watch out, one of these days he might get slammed.
Trump humiliated by fact-check
This has never happened ever.
Yeah, but we need copium and jumping off points for online snarking
The fact checkers are clearly radical leftist antifa and they are lying /s
