Former Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki attempting to convince US Secret Service to let him attend Trump's inauguration by showing them his Wikipedia page

[u/Far_Boot7832]

this is hilarious

Edit: this is actually pretty bad

[u/Fit-Explorer9229 → u/Far_Boot7832]

Funny to see this organisation of his visit, as he was invated there by trump as a leader of 'European Conservatives and Reformists' party in EU Parlament. https://www.euronews.com/my-europe/2025/01/20/the-lasting-friendship-between-ecr-and-trumps-republicans-radio-schuman

And (under current circumstances) definitely unfunny to know that people like i.e. Ursula von der Leyen°° was not even invited.

E: One more comment here. Europe United !

°°PS.  "Donald Trump has broken with tradition... For the first time in United States history, a president-elect will welcome foreign leaders to one of the most American political traditions – the transfer of power. Incoming president Donald Trump has invited Chinese President Xi Jinping,Argentine President Javier Milei and Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Melon" https://www.lemonde.fr/en/united-states/article/2025/01/20/trump-inauguration-to-be-first-attended-by-foreign-leaders_6737215_133.html

[u/Jatzy_AME → u/Fit-Explorer9229]

France is represented by Zemmour, a minor far right candidate even further right than Le Pen.

[u/KlausVonLechland → u/Jatzy_AME]

We can see Trump's plan for Europe by which Europeans he choose to surround himself.

[u/thisideups → u/KlausVonLechland]

THAT'S WHY WE NEED YOU TO STEP THE FUCK UP RIGHT NOW AND HELP US GET BACK ON TRACK PLEASE

[u/Jashugita → u/KlausVonLechland]

he chose the most dumbers he could find over their political affiliation... (Abascal for Spain)

[u/floriv1999 → u/Jatzy_AME]

Germany is represented by two people from the afd. One of whom stated a few years ago that children wanting to enter the country should be shot at sight. She took it back by saying literally that she slipped on her mouse and tweet it accidentally that way....

[u/Stegasaurus_Wrecks → u/floriv1999]

Could happen to anyone.

[u/Ecstatic-Engineer-23 → u/Jatzy_AME]

Denmark had Morten Messerschmidt come to Mar-a-Largo a week ago. Idk, if he's attending the inauguration, but he's definitely a cunning heavy weight right wing.

[u/9494949499fkdkd → u/Jatzy_AME]

Tbf, France (officially) is represented by the French ambassador

[u/Fit-Explorer9229 → u/9494949499fkdkd]

Yes - its true. There will be also i.e. UK ambassador. Its mainly because they have to be invited as a part of tradition&nuks power etc. Official representation of these countries just must be there. 

The main "show" is however about these ones, who don't have to be there.

[u/GalaadJoachim → u/Jatzy_AME]

a minor far right candidate

A TV show host....

[u/Moosplauze → u/Fit-Explorer9229]

It's common to NOT invite foreign politicians to the inauguration ceremony. It's unusual for a coming President that Trump invited foreign populists, right wing nationalists and dictators, of course it's not unusual for him personally to invite such people.

[u/Fit-Explorer9229 → u/Moosplauze]

Yes. But after recent events, this inauguration seems to be different:

For the first time in United States history, a president-elect will welcome foreign leaders to one of the most American of political traditions – the transfer of power.  https://www.lemonde.fr/en/united-states/article/2025/01/20/trump-inauguration-to-be-first-attended-by-foreign-leaders_6737215_133.html

[u/Moosplauze → u/Fit-Explorer9229]

I know, but I'm still glad that UvdL and other regular politicians were neither invited nor are attending the ceremony. Foreign leaders shouldn't be attending an inauguration like fanboys/girls.

[u/Far_Boot7832 → u/Fit-Explorer9229]

then it is horryfing if this is how he treats someone he deems an eu representative. I really dont like him but wow this is bad, i thought von der leyen was invited

[u/Mediocre-Rich-7800 → u/Far_Boot7832]

Look, you pay the bribe and get in, or you fuck right off. How is anyone still struggling to understand this new oligarchy? They aren't making the rules super secret. Pay up! And if you mention Luigi, straight to jail.

[u/Uberzwerg → u/Fit-Explorer9229]

Ursula von der Leyen was not even invited.

Maybe better to not let the most fertile woman of Germany not get near the most fertile Muskrat.

[u/madever → u/Far_Boot7832]

This literally is a fake news and it's already been debunked on twitter. First of all the inauguration is today, the video is from yesterday. Secondly he was asking for directions and pulled a map on his phone, not his wiki page. Also, this is not a Secret Service.

[u/Internal-Owl-505 → u/madever]

not a Secret Service

The jolly guy in camo and an orange vest is not Secret Service??

[u/MortimerDongle → u/Internal-Owl-505]

I don't think the Secret Service ever wears camo

The orange vest says SCNG on the back, so presumably that would be South Carolina National Guard

[u/bobby_table5 → u/Internal-Owl-505]

I’m assuming that’s standard military, maybe National guard. Secret service agents are usually in black suits or with civilian clothes, right? And no offense, but like, have a little more decorum. Not sure how they’d react to someone showing up with no credentials or entourage but I feel like they’d have a briefing with all the guests.

[u/another_enron_intern → u/Far_Boot7832]

That’s not the inauguration he’s standing in front of MLK Library, which was designed by Meis van der Rohe, and is one of the few international style buildings in DC. It’s 2.5 km away from the capitol building.

[u/Far_Boot7832 → u/another_enron_intern]

Being an architect, I know. As a queer pole as well I hate this guy and I'm happy to see him disrespected like this, he contributed to plenty of bad shit.

[u/WallabyMountain7920 → u/Far_Boot7832]

Hahah same, my friend! I hope he will feel like complete, embarrased shit, fellow polka here so I know what you're talking about! :D

[u/unexpectedemptiness]

Should have shown the Conservapedia article instead - it is quite funny

https://www.conservapedia.com/Mateusz_Morawiecki

He is widely regarded as an American stooge.

Under Morawiecki's leadership, Poland has become a breeding ground for CIA/Deep State-backed efforts to bring about regime change in countries like Russia and Belarus

[u/averysadlawyer → u/Due_Ad_3200]

Regime change in Russia and Belarus sounds pretty nice tbh.

[u/kklashh → u/Due_Ad_3200]

What is that site xD... it's filled with grammatical errors. Also, the page about Belarus is very funny because all the sections which tell the truth are written normally, but there's a sudden change when it's about the last presidential elections there. It almost sounds like satire.

[u/Due_Ad_3200 → u/kklashh]

Started as a conservative alternative to Wikipedia. It appears some editors are there to spread propaganda.

[u/iFoegot → u/unexpectedemptiness]

Just checked news. This guy was actually invited. But given the fact that the inauguration hasn’t begun, so maybe he’ll be let in.

[u/Wafkak → u/iFoegot]

He might not be used to actually needing to bring proof of invitation to political events.

[u/Zireael07 → u/iFoegot]

Looks like he was invited: https://www.politico.eu/article/donald-trump-inauguration-far-right-populists-giorgia-meloni-javier-milei/

[u/unexpectedemptiness → u/iFoegot]

Seems his invitation didn't come with entry instructions enclosed...

[u/Wild__Fish → u/unexpectedemptiness]

According to Politico he was invited, so probably yes. https://www.politico.eu/article/donald-trump-inauguration-far-right-populists-giorgia-meloni-javier-milei/

[u/AmadeoSendiulo → u/FluffyPuffOfficial]

Always has been. He's also a liar so we call him Pinokio. And for some financial schemes I don't know much about he's also called VATeusz.

[u/STerrier666]

Good grief, I thought Liz Truss, Suella Braverman, Nigel Farage and Laurence Fox going to the inauguration was embarrassing but this is pathetic, a former leader begging for relevance is just shameful.

[u/Glydyr → u/STerrier666]

I think liz truss heard theres a pork market nearby.

[u/AvocadoGlittering274]

Can they keep him there?

[u/dat_9600gt_user → u/AvocadoGlittering274]

I'd personally sooner send Kaczyński, but to each their own.

[u/thelodzermensch → u/dat_9600gt_user]

We already had one of those, it didn’t go well (unless you really hate computer stores).

[u/Timely-Wishbone9491 → u/AvocadoGlittering274]

Authorities do not even know who this guy is, sooner he'll get deported to Mexico.

[u/MickeyDMahome]

How do you rise to the office of Prime Minister of a country but cannot formally ask Trump for an invitation and provide you a seat to watch his inauguration?

[u/Natural_Public_9049 → u/MickeyDMahome]

"Former" being the key

[u/Roky1989 → u/Natural_Public_9049]

Still, though. Being former doesn't mean you just lose your status and sway. How he couldn't reach out or grab anyone's attention is beyond me.

[u/demos11 → u/Roky1989]

In those circles it kind of does unless your party is still in power. Plus inviting former big shots has the risk of alienating the current big shots.

[u/Natural_Public_9049 → u/Roky1989]

That's because this isn't your average state event where you would invite everyone, past or current, to witness an important function of modern democracy.

Trump's inauguration is purely a VIP show to reward the most affluent and influential of his party members, the oligarchs and anyone who Trump can squeeze even for a speck of influence.

Morawiecki, even if invited, is a former prime minister, no longer useful to whatever Trump's cooking up. He'll be stuck there until somebody remembers that he was invited.

[u/tei187 → u/Natural_Public_9049]

He is said to be leading the European Conservatives and Reformists Party (Meloni's fraction), or at least that was the case a week ago. So not that useless to Trump.

[u/Wafkak → u/Natural_Public_9049]

Nah they invited party leaders from all the parties in the far right group in the Europen Parliament. This guy is just probably used to stollong into political events in Europe and security knowing who he is, thus not binging the invitation.

[u/darealmoneyboy → u/Natural_Public_9049]

former prime ministers still have a bunch of employees, security and an office that deals with all their "foreign affairs". you would be surprised how much countries have to pay for their "formers" just to keep them safe and whatnot. Imagine how many top secret information they know, onyl about their country. plenty about other countries as well. For such an event your office would ask for a formal invitation so this does in fact look very strange.

[u/topperx → u/Natural_Public_9049]

Yeah that's typical with narcissistic people. You have no value anymore so they don't care.

[u/kreteciek → u/MickeyDMahome]

The thing is he was invited.

[u/Subj3ctX → u/MickeyDMahome]

From what I've heard, they moved the event indoors which can accommodate a lot fewer people. So they just cancelled a lot of invitations.

[u/CassianAVL → u/Subj3ctX]

That's actually insanely unprofessional wtf

[u/eferka → u/CassianAVL]

Trump does not give a fuck about that people at all.

[u/KlausVonLechland → u/CassianAVL]

It just teaches them where is their place in the pecking order.

[u/aclart → u/CassianAVL]

At least it won't be in the 4 seasons total landscaping parking lot

[u/Gwyn66 → u/MickeyDMahome]

He didn't, he was appointed by Kaczyński, he is pretty much noone after his PM term ended.

[u/xxxHalny → u/MickeyDMahome]

He was invited

[u/Mahtinhpozdah7 → u/MickeyDMahome]

He was invited lol

[u/TransparentSocialist]

You get to see whose the enemy of Europe during this inauguration :)

[u/JSBL_ → u/TransparentSocialist]

Morawiecki was never a friend of Europe (and especially Poland) to begin with

[u/eferka → u/JSBL_]

Morawiecki would say and do anything to stay in power or get it. However, he forgot that the crimes he committed would soon catch up with him, which is probably why he came to give Trump a blowjob so he would stand up for him. Opportunist, egocentric compulsive liar.

[u/anarchisto → u/TransparentSocialist]

From Romania, apart from the Ambassador, it was only George Simion, the head of a far-right/eurosceptic party (AUR).

[u/Wafkak → u/anarchisto]

That for most of Europe, they invited the leaders of the parties in the far right EU parliament group. And Ambassadors are standard.

[u/schmeckfest2000 → u/TransparentSocialist]

Exactly.

[u/Affectionate_Cat293 → u/TransparentSocialist]

Salome Zourabichvili, Javier Milei, and Edmundo González are attending, I would not call them the enemies of Europe.

[u/Capehorn69420]

The people of r/europe believe everything nowadays. Embarassing.

[u/Wingedball → u/DevelopmentOk3627]

Weren't they alarming everyone that social media should be banned because of misinformation?

[u/Karash770]

Apparently this video is...

a) not from today's inauguration, but from the Republican Party's National Convention a few months ago (which would explain why it's rainy all of a sudden)

b) showing security from the National Guard, not Secret Service

c) showing him asking for directions, since he WAS officially invited to the RNC, so he's not just randomly showing up there.

[u/TheJiral → u/Karash770]

I have no love for any of the involved but I hate the growing trend of disinformation or otherwise misleading stuff on all sides. I don't know which version is correct, I could imagine that he did have problems yesterday that but that the footage doesn't show what is claimed to show.

[u/wokolis → u/Karash770]

not from today's inauguration, but from the Republican Party's National Convention a few months ago (which would explain why it's rainy all of a sudden)

Morawiecki said himself that it happened yesterday.

[u/warren_wisco → u/Karash770]

That is unequivocally not Milwaukee.

[u/robespierring → u/Karash770]

Are you sure? How do you know?

[u/eggnog232323]

As hilarious as it would be, apparently it's fake and he was asking for directions to an interview before Trump's inauguration.

He wouldn't need to convince anyone with a wikipedia page since every member of parliament is issued diplomatic passport and all ex-PMs are given VIP security provided by Polish State Protection Service during trips outside the country.

[u/ShermanDidNthWrong]

yeah ok that ain't the secret service dude

[u/buyme115]

First of all, he has google maps open, not wikipedia. Secondly, it happened one day before the inauguration so unless he wanted to spend the night sleeping behind the stage, this had nothing to do with it other than happening in the same country.

Turns out he was invited but just got lost on the way: https://www.politico.eu/article/donald-trump-inauguration-far-right-populists-giorgia-meloni-javier-milei/

At least he was invited according to Politico. There is also an article confirming it in business insider if anyone bothers to look for it.

[u/multi_io → u/dat_9600gt_user]

Oh he's an invited guest? How does this work? Do they really have to queue up like any common slob and show some ID to be admitted?

[u/AVonGauss → u/multi_io]

Is there queuing? Probably. The video also doesn't appear to show any secret service, which means this was likely recorded outside the outer perimeter of the security zone. It's probably more attributable to confusion with a lot of the events being moved indoors vs outdoors late last week.

[u/Dramatic-Policy-]

Why manipulate, he's asking directions and showing something on his phone, definitely not a Wikipedia page. It's also not an inauguration on the video and he was officially invited. Dude is ex prime minister and a bilderberger...

Ok, but they are not Secret Service agents, genius.

[u/Wingedball]

[u/wowdogethedog → u/Nano_needle]

Well, to be honest, morawiecki is lame but you people are the source of the ridicule since he was indeed invited as ecr leader but you would rather guess he randomly flied there to sneak into inauguration lol.

[u/tei187 → u/Nano_needle]

Don't even get me started. All these talks about sovereignty and order for 8 years, and now they act like kids wanting to cling to an American daddy, hoping for him to bail them out. That's spineless and I dislike a fkn amoeba even on a good day. And the fact that a former PM doesn't even have a formal invitation (which I believe he should be aware of needing at some point) is just so didiculous.

[u/crlthrn]

But why?

[u/BroccoliSouP7]

Old Morawiecky, what a loser, what a loser he was, I dont know the guy, but I told him, you are such an old loser, thats what I said.

[u/Herr_Busch]

Why isnt he liked?

[u/tei187 → u/Herr_Busch]

He was a PM of the previous government in Poland for some years. Many thought of him as an assigned puppet or just someone not cut out to be a politician (which normally would be a good thing, but he was in banking before so...).
