Press secretary and enemy of enunciation Sean Spicer (artist rendering above) had a lot on his plate during a Tuesday press conference, what with leaks and scandals plaguing his boss’ administration.
And while the majority of the conference was dominated by the Michael Flynn debacle, Spicer did find a moment to discuss Trump’s Monday meeting with the Prime Minister of Canada, Mr. Trudeau.
Mr. Joe Trudeau, that is.

How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
“Yesterday the president set — had an incredibly productive set of meetings and discussions with Prime Minster Joe Trudeau of Canada,” he said, “focusing on our shared commitment to close co-operation in addressing both the challenges facing our two countries and the problems throughout the world. Our countries share a profound economic interest, with more than $2 billion in two-way trade flowing across our border every day.”
We’re sure the actual Prime Minister of Canada, Justin Trudeau, was happy to hear he made such a good impression.
Naturally, Twitter is having a field day:
For all the Canadians wondering who Joe Trudeau is, he's Justin Trudeau's evil twin. Goatee and all. #JoeTrudeau pic.twitter.com/PdriJkX0Vy

#JoeTrudeau was the sole survivor of the Bowling Green Massacre who went on to become the Prime Minister of Columbia.

Joe Trudeau is an example of someone who's done an amazing job and is being recognized more and more. @PressSec #joetrudeau #sorrycanada

So I guess @seanspicer is wanting to make things easy for SNL's writers? Maybe? Seriously, this stuff is writing itself. #JoeTrudeau

Turns out Justin Trudeau has been pronouncing his name wrong for years. Thanks for clearing that up, Spicey. #JoeTrudeau #alternativefacts

Funny funny stuff. I would love to hear the closed door conversations with Spicer after each and every stuff up he makes. How long until he hands in his resignation?

Almost as bad as last week when Nancy Pelosi thought Bush was still the President or when congresswoman Maxine Waters said Putin needs to stop invading Korea

Are you referring to this embarrassing episode?

You girls remind me of a couple 7 year old kids who when caught misbehaving immediately claim everyone else is doing the same thing. It is cute when a 7 year old does it, if ineffective. It is pathetic when a supposed adult does it.

@Juanjo
Huh? Your analogy makes no sense. I assume you’re saying that because you thought my comments were a defense of Spicer, but if you read them, then you would see they are not. I just compared it to a recent gaffe by another public figure and said it was almost as bad (which means it’s still bad) as thinking Crimea is Korea.
What’s pathetic about that?
And why do you think calling someone a girl is a put down? You’ve done that in the comments once before.
Juanjo
No Mary Hoffman, I am pointing out your obvious bullshit. Whatever may or may not have been said by Pelosi or Waters is irrelevant and merely part of your pathetic attempts to deflect any comments from the Trumppenfurher staff or the Glorious Leader himself. You have a track record dear, a long one.
You phobic to a little camp girlfriend? Good to know.
mhoffman953
@Juanjo I’m not phobic to any sort of name calling, even though you’ll never catch me doing any name calling. Referring to me as a woman doesn’t bother me.
My question to you is, why do you think that calling someone a woman is an insult? Sounds like you’re projecting your own bias

Old Spice can’t seem to catch a break. I bet the antacids collect in the corners of his mouth at night. Imagine what his frustration dreams must look like, reality.

His man crush up north.
It must burn Drumpf to realize how many world leaders there are that are much more intelligent than he is, but realizing how Canada and Mexico have such handsome men in the top position…he probably just has to stuff that into his denial bag. He one fugly troll.

Yeh. Even Merkel looks better than Trump.
