Default Trudeau Pauses for dramatic effect

For the first time in his political career sock boy stops to think before answering a question, and it made international news.
Mind you it came across as a well rehearsed dramatic pause but it had the desired effect, the media are lapping it up.

every time I see his smarmy face on TV I want to hurl.

I viewed it as him being stumped. His handlers didn't prepare him for that question so he didn't know how to answer.

I would bet a weeks pay that was planned ahead down to the second.

He usually doesn’t know how to answer, ever see him answer a question posed by the opposition in parliament with anything that actually qualifies as answering the question posed rather than rambling off into their most overused talking points?

The occasions where he does answer is when he’s thrown softball questions by friendly news outlets.

X2. I wonder if he wears an ear piece for help and people were scrambling to tell him what to say.

Surprised he didn’t somehow blame this on global warming.

He was Baked, plain and simple. Cryonics can carry themselfs quite well but takes them a while to formulate their thoughts.

Good point, dude probably just hauled in half a bag off the volcano before stepping out the door.

The answer is simple, he cannot respond to a direct question, nor answer one with any real relation to the said question. Especially if it has any consequences to him or his simpering party.

I wish that he would "pause for dramatic effect" when crossing in front of an oncoming train.

A semi would be just as good.

The question caught Freeland off guard and it took her a while to tell him what to say.

The true reason he has a mop for a hairdo is to hide the intel earphone.

My guess is he was high and it caught him off guard because it wasn't scripted.

Exactly what I have been thinking since this sh!t show started.
When the scripted questions go off script he has someone (Butts) in his ear
telling him what to say. They might as well have their hand up his ***** like
the puppet he is.

Unfortunately, it is the citizens of Canada that need help. I couldn't stand to watch the video to the end. Did he ever answer the question? I would be surprised if he did but just can't watch the guy. I sure used to think better of the people in Ontario and Quebec before they voted him in. It makes me happy to live in the Prairies.

Pretty much. He only talks when someone tells him what to say. If the people prompting him pause, so does he.

Default Trudope

Makes you wonder when he is the House of Commons and he prides himself on being bilingual and so worldly yet he always has an earpiece in and reaches for it when he answers a question during question period. Other MPs who are not bilingual need a translation but not him he just needs to be told what to say other than um um um uhh um. Today was so obvious what was happening. Hard to believe that he is our chosen leader .

Ha ha yup what a goof ball. But remember this, there is only one Trudeau to hate.
All the voters that wanted him in make me more angry and that is what this country is all about now unfortunately...

Newsflash for you. He will get in again...

Unfortunately your newsflash is right... I can’t fathom how anyone could vote for him. On the other hand the conservatives aren’t offering much of an alternative.

Conservatives are a joke. We used to have some strong conservative leadership in the past. It’s a very very sad state we are in.
