Elon, if you don’t like the USA system, why the flying fuck did you move here?

Go back to South Africa you ladder pulling, entitled piece of shit.

Take Canadian wannabe secessionist Ted Cruz with you.

[–] Lost_My_Mind 48 points 2 months ago (10 children)

Ted Cruz is Canadian???

So, let me get this straight.....a Canadian moves to Texas, and then when it snows and gets cold, he flees to Mexico???

Welp. Nobody can say that Ted Cruz is a stereotype. We CAN say he's an asshole though. Which I will. Ted Cruz is an asshole. There, I said it.

[–] [email protected] 29 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

Yep. Asshole and secessionist Rafael “Ted” Cruz was born in the taint of Canada 🇨🇦Calgary, Alberta.

[–] Lost_My_Mind 8 points 2 months ago (1 children)

The only reason I know Calgary exists, is because I was a wrestling fan in the 90s. And Bret Hart has been complaining since 1997 that he gets screwed harder than Jenna Jameson.

The Hitman!

He was a terrific wrestler

[–] edgemaster72 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Not just terrific; the best there is, the best there was, and the best there ever will be.

His mother was American and his father was, I believe, Cuban. Neither had Canadian citizenship. They happened to hatch him in the territory of Canada while his mom was working in Alberta, so he technically was Canadian until this all came out in 2014 or 2015 when he was running in the Republican primary and he renounced his citizenship. Unfortunately for you, he was a dual citizen thanks to his mother so you can't deport him back to us. Feel free to deport him into the Gulf of Mexico if you want, though.

Which is one of the dumbest parts since only people born in the US can be president lol.

[–] FlyingSquid 2 points 2 months ago

Can we deport him to the homeland of his father? I'm guessing Cuba would have a few ideas about what should be done with Ted Cruz.

It's not that we're downplaying it. It's just that we wouldn't want the USA to deport him back here...

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago (3 children)

Yeah but we're not taking him back. Sorry.

But do you want to take Pierre Poilievre off our hands? He sounds exactly like Ron DeSantis, do you need another one of those down there?

[–] Drivebyhaiku 4 points 2 months ago

I would feel conflicted about dumping Pollivere over the fence. It's like when you have a neighbour whose yard is already filled with trash and you are like "well, more can't make much more of a difference..."

But then again I am trans and I really don't want him here to fuck up one of the few places in the world where being trans is actually protected.

Predicament...

Can't we just send them all to Antartica?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Russia is looking for conscripts. Since all these Republicans are so pro Russia, the obvious thing for them to do is move there.

Tucker Carlson is simply enamored with their supermarkets I hear

What have the penguins ever done to us?

[–] captainlezbian 1 points 2 months ago

Can we toss him to the gators?

Canada's biggest embarrassment

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 months ago (1 children)

That's Jordan Peterson. Cruz was a dual citizen until he renounced his Canadian citizenship so it's a shared shame, Peterson is strictly on us.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

omg I forgot 😞

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

He is a Canadian by virtue of being born here, but also American because of his parents. Thus he is eligible to become President. Please keep him!

[–] Lost_My_Mind 3 points 2 months ago

Please keep him!

No, U.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Born in Canada ( to an American ) and not Canadian ( not a citizen ).

The only thing good about all this is that he cannot be President.

[–] Drivebyhaiku 2 points 2 months ago

He basically moved from Canada's wannabe Texas to actual Texas and we're not sorry he's gone... Just kind of sorry he's your problem now.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

Stereotypical asshole
