Justin Trudeau tried way too hard in India, and it backfired spectacularly

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau can't stop being the worst version of himself while touring India.

During an official visit this week, Trudeau has once again dipped back into his charisma well to inspire good headlines, and global affection. Only this time, it looks like he's drowned.

Every day of his trip, Trudeau opted to don grand, ceremonial outfits traditional for India. It can be presumed that he wanted to show respect and "fit in" with the people of the country. In reality, most saw it as trying to hard at best, or as cultural appropriation at worst.
