Defending against the Deadly Donald Handshake

[Pluvious]

As more TRumpsters seek to emulate the BLOTUS's many boorish behaviors, more and more of us tender Snowflakes will fall victim to this yanking act of dominance.

1. Prime Minister Trudeau...

..managed to deflect it masterfully. It was grrrrrrrr-r-r-r-r-r-eat!!!

5. You probably already know this...but Pierre Trudeau was a black belt in Judo, and

and he made his sons take Judo for years when they were kids. I have no doubt that's where Justin learned that move.



However, I noticed that the move Justin used (grab Trump's arm with his other hand) was also used by BILL CLINTON when he met Yassir Arafat. He explained on 60 minutes that he did that so that Arafat couldn't lean in for a cheek kiss, which was Arafat's custom.

7. I did not know that about the Trudeau family. Thanks.

Wherever it came from, it was a joy to watch.

Trump is such a jerk in every possible way.

2. yes - this will be YUUUGE!!!

and we should all be ready. Trudeau bracing himself on Dump's shoulder worked well too.

3. My gf Reiko earned three black belts last year (Karate, Judo, Tae Kwon Do)

I don't think she would wrist lock him either, but if He tried something to her that was a personal assault, He probably would regret it and she would probably be in Jail. But who could blame her?

4. Note to self

Do not wear horrible purple hoodie around this lady!

Seriously though, much respect to her for reaching that level of proficiency in *three* arts, that's a lot of work and dedication!

6. I think it was probably the matching purple shoes that got her really upset.

Middle aged men wearing hoodies is hideous, but it's so common that no woman can let herself get really upset about it. Matching shoes? That's a different thing.
