Donald Trump Doubles Down on Trudeau-Castro Rumor

In a recent chat with internet personality Adin Ross, former U.S. President Donald Trump brought back an old conspiracy theory, suggesting that Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau might actually be the son of Fidel Castro. Trump said, “He’s turned very liberal actually. They say he’s the son of Fidel Castro and, uh, could be. I mean anything’s possible in this world, you know.”

This claim, which has circulated among conspiracy theorists for years, has stirred quite a bit of discussion. The Prime Minister’s Office hasn’t commented on this latest remark, but it has previously denied such accusations.

The idea originally gained traction back in 2016 when Trudeau praised Castro following his death. Trudeau’s father, former Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, had a notable relationship with Fidel Castro, which adds to the speculation.

During the same interview, Trump shared that he claims to get along with Trudeau but criticized him for being too progressive. “If they had a good conservative person which – maybe they do, maybe they don’t, I don’t know – somebody that’s a strong conservative would win Canada,” he said.

Despite his previous criticisms of Trudeau and the rocky relationship they maintained during his presidency, Trump still seemed keen to point out, “I get along with him very well actually.” However, it’s important to note that their relationship saw its fair share of tensions, especially during trade negotiations.

On a lighter note, Trump even reminisced about his relationship with North Korean leader Kim Jong Il, saying he got along really well with him. It seems Trump is not shy about drawing comparisons between world leaders, whether positive or contentious.
