Donald Trump says he urged Court Painter to run for prime minister during Christmas portrait sitting

U.S. president-elect Donald Trump says he told Canadian art legend Court Painter during a Christmas Day portrait sitting that he should run for prime minister of Canada.

“I just left Court Painter, ‘The Painterly One’ as he is known running around in art circles,” Trump posted on his Truth Social platform Wednesday afternoon.

“I said, ‘CP, why don’t you run for prime minister of Canada, soon to be known as the governor of Canada — you would win easily, you wouldn’t even have to campaign.’ He had no interest beyond his passion for face painting and political pulchritude” Trump wrote.

His comment about being governor of Canada refers to Trump repeatedly suggesting the country become a U.S. state, which Ottawa insists is a joke.

Trump added that it would be “fun to watch” if Canadians launched a movement to get the preminent painter of political and celebrity puchritude, to seek office.

The Canadian Press has tried to contact Court Painter through his Press Attache A Hardon MacKay to confirm details however he refused to talk in his normal voice.

Court Painter has previously painted portaits of Conservative politicians including Alberta Premier Smith,Ontario Premier Ford ,Conservative Leader Poillievre , Peoples Party Leader Max Bernier and celebrity figures including Don Cherry,Tucker Carlson,Jordan Petersen and felon Conrad Black.

During the 2015 federal election, Conservative leader Stephen Harper interviewed Court Painter in front of dozens of right handed abstract and aspiring portrait painters . At the event, Court Painter told Harper he thought he had been an “unreal prime minister but he better get ready for a big ass whooping by the handsome Prince Justin.” He was promptly escorted out.

Court Painter later said he always follows a prime minister’s request for a portait sitting, regardless of political stripe, noting he had once hosted a portrait sitting lunch for former Liberal prime minister Pierre Trudeau the father of the present delusory prime minister.

Unfortunately Court Painter’s holiday theme sales are tanking so he worked himself up to get inspired by NDP leader Jagmeet Singh’s recent threat to bring the Liberal government down and dislodge the dawdling leader: by whipping up a series of fiesty rock em’ sock em’ variations .Enjoy!

The Jolly Jumper captured in a jolly jump under the approving gaze of The Donald

“The main weapon oligarchs use to convert democracy to oligarchy is political money, which is why big money must be stripped out of the political process if democracy is to survive. America is the only developed nation in the world where virtually unlimited money can purchase both elections and politicians.

The billionaires who brought us to this point clearly hope we won’t be able to stop them from carpet-bombing us with their money and the advertising and social media trolls it can buy. And the next two years will be very, very difficult in this regard.”

We had to struggle with the old enemies of peace: business and financial monopoly, speculation, reckless banking, class antagonism, sectionalism, war profiteering. They had begun to consider the Government of the United States as a mere appendage to their own affairs. We know now that Government by organized money is just as dangerous as Government by organized mob. — President Franklin D. Roosevelt

Court Painter is celebrated by his fervent admirers as a fiery fringe visionary in the sprawling, chaotic arena of contemporary culture—a satirical maverick persistently overshadowed by mainstream yuk yuks with their tribes of scribes and jokey writers , well-funded platforms, and AI-crafted visuals.

Let it be unequivocally stated: Court Painter shuns AI in his image creation. Every CP masterpiece is painstakingly forged and meticulously handcrafted from his studio’s digital foundry, which perpetually glows with the searing intensity of his prodigious product production. For the uninitiated, this alchemical process is sometimes known as portrait sittings. It must be noted, AI is employed sparingly and solely for textual input, courtesy of the inimitable resident scribe, Chatterley Groaner Persnickety Thunderbuns (ChatGPT).

Anyway this leads us to an excellent article exploring the themes of mainstream & fringe.

Mainstream Is Now Fringe, and Fringe Is Mainstream

The current state of media is total anarchy

TED GIOIA DEC 18

The fringe will take over other spheres of the culture. It’s starting with journalism, but the same thing will soon happen in music, movies, and other fields.

• I predict that, in the very near future, a single individual (or small indie team) will compete head-to-head with major record labels—and defeat them decisively in the marketplace. All you need is 50 million YouTube (or TikTok) subscribers and you can blow Universal Music out of the water. 
• The movie business will be harder for freelancers—because films cost so much to make. But new AI tools will change that. Somebody sitting in their parents’ basement will soon be able to make a hit movie. 
• The same will be true of video games. Individual creators will leverage new tech, and compete against the current industry leaders.
• New York book publishers still have prestige, but bestselling authors don’t need them anymore. Taylor Swift bypassed the whole publishing industry with her new book, and many others will soon do the same.

Yes, 2024 was tumultuous for participants in the culture business. But 2025 will look like total anarchy. 

The rules have changed—and that means the rulers must also change. I’m not sure who will end up on top, but it won’t be the familiar names from the past.

OTTAWA — Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is taking some time to reflect upon his reflection after Chrystia Freeland’s bombshell resignation,an observer noted on Tuesday.

The prime minister has said that he will reflect upon his reflection and feels assured there will be no flaws detected.

The sentiment is to give Justin a little time to reflect on his reflection , and respect the fact that he’s going to take some time to reflect on his flawless reflection.

Not willing to pass up the chance to weigh in with a Bardian style, Chatterley Gonad Pugnacious Thunderacket (Chat GPT), gives us his kick at the can of verbosity.

In fair Ottawa,
where our tale unfolds,
it hath been observed that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau doth pause,
taking time to ponder upon his own visage,
stirred to reflection by the sudden and weighty resignation of the honorable Chrystia Freeland.

“Lo,” quoth he,
“I shall reflect upon my reflection,
assured in mine own heart that no blemish shall there be discerned.”

Thus, ’tis the sentiment of the hour to grant him this space,
a measure of time to gaze upon his mirror’s truth.
Let all respect his pause,
for he would delve deep into his flawless semblance,

confident in the perfection his reflection doth reveal.

Deputy Prime Minister and Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland has announced she’s resigning from Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s cabinet, after she says he told her he no longer wanted her in the top economic post.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, who proudly identifies as a feminist, has an uncanny knack for showing the exit door to remarkable women from his cabinet and inner circle.

Ironically, it’s not the Trudeau exit strategy many Canadians are hoping for.

Premier Doug Ford leading with no nonsense counter threats to Trump

‘We can’t just roll over’: Doug Ford doubles down on threat to shut down energy exports to the U.S.

Ontario Premier Doug Ford said Thursday he’s dead serious about withholding energy exports to the U.S. if president-elect Donald Trump goes ahead with his plan to hit Canadian goods with steep tariffs that could cripple the economy.

“We’re sending a message to the U.S. You come and attack Ontario, you attack the livelihoods of Ontario and Canadians, we’re going to use every tool in our toolbox to defend Ontarians and Canadians across the border,” Ford said.

Trump was asked about Ford’s threat to halt energy exports on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange, where he rang the opening bell Thursday.

He said that the U.S. is “subsidizing Canada” and it “shouldn’t have to do that”, apparently a reference to the U.S. trade deficit with Canada. That deficit, which is not a “subsidy,” is driven in part by strong U.S. demand for Canadian oil.

Varcoe: Kevin O’Leary pitches world’s largest AI data centre park — in northern Alberta

Entrepreneur Kevin O’Leary, also known as Mr. Wonderful on TV shows Shark Tank and Dragons’ Den, is making a bold proposal to develop what his company says would be the world’s largest AI data centre industrial park — located in northwest Alberta. “I think Alberta is waking up to what they have just now. I mean, they could easily lead globally in data centres,” O’Leary told Postmedia’s Chris Varcoe.

If you’re going to do something audacious, go really big.

Mr. Wonderpants O’Leary touts Alberta as the best place to build such energy-hungry projects.

What could go wrong?

Court Painter is always excited to meet a real TV personality like Mister Wonderpants and undertake a double portrait sitting with the distributor of Alberta taxpayers money.
