Trump’s press secretary called Canada’s Prime Minister “Joe Trudeau,” and Twitter’s off to the races
Press secretary and enemy of enunciation Sean Spicer (artist rendering above) had a lot on his plate during a Tuesday press conference, what with leaks and scandals plaguing his boss’ administration.
And while the majority of the conference was dominated by the Michael Flynn debacle, Spicer did find a moment to discuss Trump’s Monday meeting with the Prime Minister of Canada, Mr. Trudeau.
Mr. Joe Trudeau, that is.

“Yesterday the president set — had an incredibly productive set of meetings and discussions with Prime Minster Joe Trudeau of Canada,” he said, “focusing on our shared commitment to close co-operation in addressing both the challenges facing our two countries and the problems throughout the world. Our countries share a profound economic interest, with more than $2 billion in two-way trade flowing across our border every day.”
We’re sure the actual Prime Minister of Canada, Justin Trudeau, was happy to hear he made such a good impression.
Naturally, Twitter is having a field day:
For all the Canadians wondering who Joe Trudeau is, he’s Justin Trudeau’s evil twin. Goatee and all. #JoeTrudeau pic.twitter.com/PdriJkX0Vy

So I guess @seanspicer is wanting to make things easy for SNL’s writers? Maybe? Seriously, this stuff is writing itself. #JoeTrudeau

Turns out Justin Trudeau has been pronouncing his name wrong for years. Thanks for clearing that up, Spicey. #JoeTrudeau #alternativefacts
