Why wasn't there an interpreter? I know that Zelensky speaks English, but isn't one kind of mandatory?

[–] DrownedRats@lemmy.world 30 points 20 hours ago (2 children)

You'd be hard pressed to find an imterpreter that can translate trumps incomprehensible babble into something most people can understand.

[–] LeninOnAPrayer@lemm.ee 4 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

I mean they don't need to translate trump. Zelensky can definitely understand well enough. But you can tell he definitely losing some ability to not respond in his native tongue. So I think a one way translator to English would be helpful.

[–] cerement@slrpnk.net 1 points 4 hours ago

translating what Zelenskyy was muttering would probably cause an even bigger diplomatic incident

[–] 100_kg_90_de_belin@feddit.it 2 points 18 hours ago

That's a whole other issue, though

well in fairness, trump can't sit up that straight. you need a spine to do that

[–] sp3tr4l@lemmy.zip 131 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (19 children)

... entirely seriously, he does not seem to be able to actually stand up straight.

There are hundreds or thousands of photos where he is like this, this very strange forward posture.

He... almost certainly has some kind of diagnosable posture/spine related condition.

IIRC this is when trump tried his yanking handshake but Trudeau was ready for it, and I guess Trump refused to take a step forward

[–] Blackmist@feddit.uk 14 points 1 day ago

Isn't it his shoe lifts that do that?

[–] TheKingBee@lemmy.world 67 points 1 day ago (1 children)

i once read that trump stands like the human part of a centaur without the horse body and I can't not see it now...

[–] sp3tr4l@lemmy.zip 112 points 1 day ago

I'd mostly seen it drawn/shopped memes.

[–] grue@lemmy.world 42 points 1 day ago (2 children)

IIRC, the long-standing rumor is that he's got heel lifts in his shoes to make himself seem taller.

[–] TomAwsm@lemmy.world 27 points 1 day ago (5 children)

While highly probable, that alone doesn't cause one to stand like this. There must be some insane degree of anterior pelvic tilt going on.

Is this fancy words for 'weird butt'?

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 15 points 1 day ago

Probably to counter weight his full diaper

Look at the left shoe. It’s already got a good size heel, plus the crease where the flex for the toe joints would be is just a couple inches below the laces. Dudes got high heels and lift inserts. Probably a good 3+ inches.

I think Desantis did the same thing, his boots had the creases way high up plus a way higher bridge in the boot to compensate for the lifts.

[–] Fizz@lemmy.nz 6 points 1 day ago

I feel bad for Trudeau having to get so close to that disgusting thing.

[–] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 13 points 1 day ago (1 children)

He has to counter-balance his dumptruck

[–] Jerb322@lemmy.world 1 points 9 hours ago

You mean the shit in his diaper?

If that's how Zelenskyy has to hold his dick, it's got to be massive.

More seriously, Zelenskyy stands up to Putin.
Why would be be scared of trump, who doesn't?

Trump is such a weak, insecure and petulant man.

[–] beejboytyson@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

Ikr? The other guy will literally torture and kill him given the chance.

Let's be honest... This image analysis makes more sense than the "deal" from the view of Selenski...

Alpha alpha beta alpha. Beta beta alpha gamma beta alpha beta. Beta beta gamma beta alpha beta gamma. Omeeeega

Based based based cringe cringe cringe. Le boomer? Le zoomer! Zoomer go zoom zoom zoomies!

Leavitt said that was different because the billionaire Tesla CEO is not the leader of a “sovereign nation.”

Are you sure about that?
