Justin Trudeau dropped $61,000 in taxpayer money for a 5-star hotel stay to attend an anti-poverty gala in NYC. ( Canada )

If there is any one indicator that those comprising the political establishment are nothing more than self-interested wannabe celebrities, you’d be hard-pressed to determine whether it is their over-the-top infatuation with big time actors and reality television personalities, or their devotion to the high life, despite their failure to legitimately earn it.

Nearly two months ago, an organization called Global Citizen held a ritzy, star-studded anti-poverty function in New York City, an event at which Canada’s Justin Trudeau can be seen next to Hollywood heavyweight Hugh Jackman in an embarrassing display of fanboy-ism

...

When you see an aging has-been (a debatable term assuming Trudeau has actually “been”) desperately clamoring for celebrity recognition and relevancy, it’s hard not to feel pity — but this is Trudeau about whom we’re talking

...

The prime minister’s trip to a star-studded, two-day summit in New York City cost taxpayers over $61,000 in hotel costs ….

Held in New York City on April 27 and 28, the Global Citizen NOW summit was billed as an opportunity to unite celebrities and activists with business and political leaders — all to take ‘urgent action’ to end extreme poverty.

Need I remind you, Trudeau’s regime is ahead of the power curve with “urgent action” to “end extreme poverty” — it’s already euthanizing Canadian citizens seeking reprieve from the dystopian and distressing world created by the godless behemoth we know as “modern government.”

...

Individual rights are being taken away, and we are being told to accept a future that is less prosperous. Meanwhile, when he’s not arrogantly lecturing the rest of us, Justin Trudeau flies around the world and lives it up at our expense.

This is a failing country, and Trudeau is a failed leader.

"‘urgent action’ to end extreme poverty."

It's called CAPITALISM. No extravagant gala required.

Justin Trudeau is only 51. He’ll rule Canada the next 20-30 years. Just think of him as the Canadian version of Erdoğan.

Trudeau 1.0 was Trudeau la tapette.

Trudeau 2.0 is Le serin de Globohomo.

I was looking for the name of the hotel and found this:

Trudeau stayed in $6,000 London hotel suite for Queen Elizabeth's funeral

That is $6,000 per nigt Canadian, which is $4,560 US at current exchange rates.

A little more perspective on this one: Prime Minister Justin Trudeau Hotel Bill

Three days

Up to 39 rooms (depending on the day)

$562.00 per room per night.

Plus a work area office space at about $1,000 per night.

**It’s called CAPITALISM. No extravagant gala required.**

Exactly. And being a fan of a pretender is not a sign of high intellect. Of course, I have seen good acting, but wouldn’t go out of my way to see a pretender face to face.

In the whoreld of pollytiks Trudope and Newlittle are THE poster BOYS of white privleej.

This reminds me of a UN Conference in Africa a few years back, about ending poverty and hunger. Someone leaked a dining menu for the conference...all the best foods from all over the globe...as if they were royalty. All the while in villages within a few miles, children were literally starving to death.

Well, on the bright side he is staving off poverty for himself and the hotel owners and employees.

The hotel Trudeau stayed at likely had no illegal migrants trashing the rooms or drinking and using drugs.

He is another child of Privilege, just like Hunter Biden. These are the vapid tyrants that want to rule the world.
