The United States, Canada & Mexico just renegotiated NAFTA.

To finalize it, they had a joint signing ceremony.

Donald signed in the wrong place, everyone noticed & then things got awkward.

1. Reset the national embarrassment counter to zero

"It's never made it to 1."

[bigtree]

4. the others reactions are priceless

...clearly this is a group which knows this buffoon well, by now.

Their expressions silently, gleefully acknowledging to each other America's shame.

[erronis]

36. Unfortunately it will take many years for the US to clean up his stain.

[cstanleytech]

40. Actually it will take decades to scrub the shit stain off.

[peekaloo]

6. LOL

D'oh!

[ashling]

41. It's never made it to 1."

that's the reason it is delineated in increments of 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, etc.

[Thomas Hurt]

2. When you think you are King, you sign where ever you want.

[Paladin]

3. Dementia? More and more signs of it, every day. (nt)

[rickyhall]

13. Bush, Sr. helped Raygun, nobody to help Agent Orange.

[IronLionZion]

18. Pence isn't much help

[Hekate]

37. Shadow President Pence has his own agenda. nt

[ginnyinWI]

14. More likely--

72 years old and too VAIN to wear reading glasses. That page looked like a total blur I'm sure. He's lucky if he could sign anywhere near where he was supposed to! Stupid chump!

[underpants]

27. There are pics with him in reading glasses

At least one from inside the limo.

I noticed during the campaign that he had notes written for him with what appeared to be a 20/20 pen. It's like a Sharpie but it doesn't bleed through the paper. It's used by people with low vision.

[ginnyinWI]

29. I'm sure he uses them when nobody is supposed to see it.

He also signs his name really big. Was this always so?

[Docreed2003]

5. Wow...unbelievable

Everyone else has the same reaction I would have had...what a maroon

[tanyev]

7. Why are Republican voters so enamored of idiot kings?

I don't get it.

[pangaia]

20. Yes you do.

[In It to Win It]

8. Hi-larious!

[Roland99]

9. "Which is the one that matters?"

“We each get a copy”

[jcgoldie]

10. Hahaha I teach high school and...

The looks on those guys faces are the exact same ones you see on kids everyday when they have to work with a kid that didn't do their homework!

[Fuzzpope]

11. He is not a president..

He's an imposter, like a cuckoo fledgling that nudged the real president from its nest and took over its life in its place entirely ignorant of anything such a role requires.

[skamaria]

34. Love the metaphor!

N/T

[catchnrelease]

12. Trudeau at the end

You can hear him thinking 'Don't laugh, don't roll your eyes...' Guy has some amazing self control!

[Merlot]

23. The look on Trudeaus face: Priceless!

[knightmaar]

15. To be fair, a Canadian did this once too, in WW2.

Apparently, Colonel Cosgrave was blind in one eye and signed in the wrong section.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_Instrument_of_Surrender

Not sure what Donald's excuse is.

[Harker]

17. Is that the one that matters? n/t

[aggiesal]

21. Because IQ45 is an IDIOT ...

Another perfect IQ45 moment, brought to you by the Greedy One Percent (GOP) voters!

[Merlot]

22. His excuse: his bone spurs were acting up. n/t

[grantcart]

24. How in the world did you know that fact?

[knightmaar]

32. Canada has a short history

It's easier to know everything

(Actually, it was a coworker who pointed it out to me. How did he know such things? <shrug&gt

[irisblue]

25. So I wikied Col Cosgrove

He was an authenticated bad ass.

[edbermac]

31. First thing I thought about.

There were 2 copies of the surrender, one for the Allies, the other for the Japanese. I assume he wrongly signed the Japanese one first as the Allies version was signed properly.

[SergeStorms]

16. Then the moron holds it up for everyone to see.

Always....he holds the agreement, or bill, or whatever he's just signed up for everyone to see. Like signing his name is the ultimate sacrifice for his country as president. I think he believes that's all presidents do....sign their names and ride on planes.

The ultimate idiot. Donald J. Trump. The 'J' stands for jackoff.

[Harker]

19. His signature looks somewhat like

that of Heinrich Himmler. Ugly, yet he's proud to display it... like so many of his flaws.

[LakeSuperiorView]

30. I'll just leave this here...

[mr_lebowski]

33. Alas, a bygone era ... we can't have characters like Stuart anymore ... (nt)

[LakeSuperiorView]

35. We have one in the Oval Office...

[mr_lebowski]

38. True ... but he wasn't made up, to be played for laughs ...

My doG, do I wish he were ... and this whole f'ing 'presidency' was really just an SNL skit ...

[Pisces]

26. Another day another national embarrassment.

[ailsagirl]

28. Oops!!

What a dolt

[mr_lebowski]

39. Even worse than the signing in the wrong place is that he has NO IDEA how the signing process

even freaking works.

He's thinking it's a 'single master, multiple copy' scenario ... like documents from a court (esp. from a divorce) ... has NO CLUE that all three of them are meant to sign all three copies ... and hence all three 'count'.

So he's hoping he can 'fix' his screwup, because hopefully the copy in front of him that he messed up, isn't actually 'the real copy'.

Nobody even clued him in as to how the whole thing works ... either that, or he forgot what he was told.

What a f***ing JOKE this clown is.

[Solly Mack]

42. lol
