Haha! The amused look on the Korean Official's face is priceless, and Trump looks completely captivated by the lavish gold in that crown. This scene is hilarious!
Weeks ago, South Korea mocked Trump with a replica of the golden Cheonmachong crown, claiming it symbolized “peace.” In reality, the crown came from the Silla Kingdom, whose king was assassinated after a civil war and kingdom destroyed by corruption & rule for the wealthy.

On Remembrance Day, The Trump Regime quietly took down a memorial to Black WWII Soldiers in the Netherlands, because of course he did.
The Sacrifice of 174 African Americans was wiped out because Donald Trump is a racist. open.substack.com/pub/deanblun... @deanblundell.bsky.social #cdnpoli

Quebec's separatism is rooted in preservation of culture, language & history and Quebecers' opposition to Trump has in some ways increased their sense of Canadian patriotism. The separatist political movement currently in Quebec is not an immediate priority #Canada🇨🇦🍁
Quebec is the most anti-Trump province in Canada.
Positive impressions of Trump are highest in Alberta (21%) and Ontario (20%).

The policy right now is "cruelty". #USA
Schiff: "The president -- 'I'm going out to play golf.' One thing that is so shocking to me is that they're appealing to the Supreme Court for the right to cut off food from people. Who does that? Who works so hard to cut food from people who need it right now? The cruelty is part of the policy."

Voters Reject the Cruelty, Chaos, and Corruption of Trumpism
There were no bright spots for the GOP this election. Across the country, Democrats running on inclusionary, economically ambitious, pro-immigrant policies won.

Well, Mark Carney is building a strong Canada. PP is tearing it apart. To reiterate, Conservative MPs are leaving because they are dissatisfied with the leadership & policy. In joining the Liberals, they support what they see as a more promising direction for #Canada.🇨🇦 #politics #cndpoli
