Donald Trump, Justin Trudeau handshake memes: Truth behind ‘awkward’ photo

And all it takes is just one photo and a picture-perfect expression for the internet to work its magic.

Cue meme gold.

US President Donald Trump and Canadian Prime Minister Donald Trump became their own meme following what appeared to be at first glance a very awkward handshake.

But on closer inspection, all is not quite what it seems.

I don't see it, but I commend the two men for their obvious respect for each others differences. From what we were able to see on television, Trudeau represented us well and I'm sure the Americans felt the same.

other than being a pretentious dick by switching to francais in the White House. perhaps it helps the pony mask his uh's, um's and other derps.

It was quite interesting to see the CBC analysis of the body language of the meeting. Apparently Trudeau completely dominated the Dumpster physically.

Lets hope that Trump doesnt clue in and take offence because even without NAFTA, Trump can still crush us in other ways...

Canada also has a lower dollar advantage. Is the US likely to devalue its currency as well? Probably not; and the tax advantage Canada has is not as great as it seems due to the numerous special tax breaks granted to US corporations. For many of them this effectively lowers US corporate taxes by 10 to 15%.

I'd love to see Justin and Donald have a boxing match. That would be great. It would be so great, so great. People would get tired of the greatness

Well, Spicer referred to JT has 'Joe from Canada', how stupid and gauche is this man?? If he forgot Trudeau's name, as a man supposedly experienced in public speaking, he should have said " The Prime Minister of Canada". What is with these bozo's!! They keep giving SNL more and more material for free!!
