      We need to be sending JD Vance to every country in the world. He visited the Pope, the Pope immediately died of cringe and was replaced by an even woker Pope. Then he visits Hungary and topples an authoritarian strongman who’d been holding onto power for 16 years. Can he campaign for Putin next?

        It’s only cringe if it’s from the cringé region of france, otherwise, it’s just sparkling shame.

        Maybe we can get “JD” “Vance” to endorse lots of Republican candidates all across the country in the coming election…

            Nobody does CRINGE like us. Nobody. The Fake News Media says our cringe is “embarrassing”, WRONG! Our cringe is BEAUTIFUL, it’s POWERFUL, and frankly, it’s the greatest cringe anyone has ever seen. Other countries are calling me and saying “Sir, how do you have such incredible cringe?” We have the BEST cringe. It’s not even close. Sleepy Joe couldn’t cringe like this if he tried (and he tries, believe me, SAD!).
            🇺🇸 THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.

        Mark Carney’s Liberals have won Canada’s federal election - riding a backlash of anti-Trump sentiment to form the next government.

        It is a stunning political turnaround for a party who were widely considered dead and buried just a few months ago.

        1. Trump’s threats became the defining issue

        There is no doubt the US president’s tariff threats and comments undermining Canada’s sovereignty played an outsized role in this election, suddenly making leadership and the country’s economic survival the defining issues of the campaign.

        Mark Carney used it to his advantage, running as much against Trump as he did against his main opposition rival, Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre.

        Australia:

        Donald Trump’s stinging trade tariffs may have helped Australia’s left-leaning prime minister snatch a resounding election victory on Saturday, analysts say.

        Unlike Canada’s Trump-swayed vote three days earlier, the US president was far from the biggest concern for voters who backed Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, academics said.

        But some said Trump nevertheless appeared to have a significant impact on the governing Labor Party’s late turnaround in the opinion polls, and the emphatic election result.

        Then there’s the elevated fuel prices reducing carbon emissions…
