Trump and the Republicans desperately want to make the USA the 22nd Republic of the Russian Federation.

First and foremost let’s be reminded that Trump is doing this for Putin in retaliation to what the Biden administration did to Russia with the sanctions for invading Ukraine. Secondly, Trump wants to be King. By weakening our economy and putting millions of people at risk and ruining their lives, he hopes a civil war can be started so that Russia, North Korea and possibly China can attack us while at war with each other and the Federal Government.

That’s the question “WHAT IS THIS REALLY ABOUT” there is something very wrong going on here! This current ?leading our country straight into hell has reasons far beyond fent! Like Prime Minister Trudeau said “that’s his excuse” esp. with Canada as we have known & for anyone who hasn’t known,they do now. Canada is not our biggest concern of Fent getting into our country! Trump wants to look like a hero to his sheep but he is only a puppet being played by Putin!What is it that Putin has that either is on Trump or what Trump wants! Keywords “what Trump wants” bc none of us want this! He is weakening our country almost daily & getting closer to Russia?! Russians don’t even trust Putin,let alone any Americans, esp leaders! Putin would destroy his own for power & yet Trump thinks he’s some “good trustworthy guy” we are headed into a very very dark time! The faster we get him out the faster we can repair the damage done! Idk how anyone supports this ?any longer\nAs an American I stand with Canada ?? Ukraine ?? Mexico ?? Europe! Ppl get ur passports ready! I’m ready to leave & come back in 4yrs!

As an American I'm 60 yrs old. And I totally agree With Canada's Prime Minister Trudeau 1000%. I never wanted Trump. And let's make this clear by all means. To those that voted for his dumb ass I hope u you got what you wanted. HE DOES NOT GIVE A CRAP BOUT AMERICA ONLY PUTIN WHO WITH TRUMP BEING THE ULTIMATE ASS KISSER TO HIM TO DESTROY OUR DEMOCRACY AND THE PEOPLE WITHIN IT. GOD HELP US ALL. IT'S NOT GOING TO BE PRETTY. TRUMP IS THE DEVIL HIMSELF.

Trump wants Canada's natural resources. He is going to, sooner or later, invade Cananda. He's made a deal with Russia and China to takeover the world. Canadians and the world need to prepare for war. Trump is the antichrist.

Trump has been using fear mongering rants and exaggerations all along to get supporters to believe it. Biden had more illegals deported than Trump ever did. Biden had record jobs and record low unemployment. Trump's a SOCIOPATH and pathological liar who is now siding with Putin. Trump's Dismantled everything he can to create Chaos and will eventually say the protests require Martial Law. Trump's the Arsonist and the Firefighter. Trump wants Dominance like Putin and Xi Jinping, they're his Heroes. Get a clue and stop the INSANITY.

I am American and I stand with Donald Trump. Canada needs to shut their borders down with the fentanyl. It's killing all our people they buy. What they want and they charge us a fortune. They don't do nothing for America. Canada, does everyone should do for America? As Americans stand up for the USA thank you.

Trudeau should have told the world that the reason Donald duck Trump wants Canada is because Putin wants it if the idiot Donald duck Trump can take Canada it would be agift to putin so that Donald Duck Trump is the king of the United States

As American people, we want to still be allies and work with you too. The Trump/musk/Putin governments needs to stop their current chaotic districts activities. The Trump government does not speak for me or my fellow Americans. They only speak for themselves. They are greedy bastards!!!!

Trump wants Canada, Greenland, and the Panama Canal. Remember that he said that Putin's invasion of Ukraine was a genius act. He's a bully. Don't back down.

Donald Trump Want to hand Putin \n the United States on a silver plate.

All this because Poutine as something on Trump that he wants to make sure it never gets out. Not hard to imagine what. They always use projection against their ennemies. So just think what kind of accusation they are always making.

I don’t stand with anyone except the UNITED STATES Of AMERICA! But I want to make something very clear. We just went through 4 years of absolute hell with The Biden administration!! No way around it. And the democrats will do anything to make trump look bad no matter if it hurts our country or not. They simply hate the fact that the checks and the cross dressing and what ever nasty crap they spent our money on . They won’t talk about that! But what I want to know is why we aren’t saying ok Canada we spend trillions militarily protecting you. And the won’t even come up to the 2% on defense they lied about participating in. Why should we pay for everything then they want to tax us?? Should America not get something for protection of a country?? Why do we need to pay there bills? Why should we pay for a war we’re not in? Ukrainian war Americans pay?? No! Canada dosent defend themselves Americans pay?? Then when we tax them like they tax us they want to slap a gift horse in the mouth??

CNN just wants to bash trump

Several generation American here. I do not want this. I stand with Canada! Not Russia, not Trump, not the DC freak show. Thank you Mr Trudeau

We have no Govt. Trump is dealing with a loser that has already resigned. We have had no GOVT since early December in Canada, because Trudeau put the Liberals before Canadians. Majority of our country doesnt want that fucking loser leading us in this mess, his words are WORTHLESS.

Donald Trump wants to be like Putin. Americans, What have you done?

wow al the delusional people on here amazing .Trump wants the tariffs to pay so americans dont have to pay taxes thats smart we should do the same and has everyone forgot that tirdeau doesnt like free speech .he is on the epstein list and his sister is tied to the picktin farm .and the war on drugs is a joke .it is worse than ever. proof is in the pudding people .trudeau is the enemy just like biden and all those like him wake up canadians .tirdeau funds hamas they are terrorists and war mongers .how terrible Trump wants world peace so does anyone with half a brain.im with trump. he is doing what many should have long ago .we need Trump here too

Many, many US citizens are with you and support Canada. Trump is creating this tariff war in a unilateral fashion. We do not support it, we don’t want it and our economy doesn’t demand it. These are foolish decisions made by an unscrupulous businessman turned politician.

As an American the citizens don't really have a choice on what trump decides to do. If you want to match his 25% tariffs I think you should. We qlso don't want to help putin hurt others. We want to work with Canada our allies. I don't personally know anyone that doesn't agree with this but that doesnt meant they do not exost.

Fake title mass report get this shit removed, misinformation at its finest if Trudeau really wanted to say all this he would have done it when he met with Trump not cross his arms and feel offended like a snowflake

I’m American and I believe In Equal Tariffs … You charge 20 we should charge 20 but if you want to go higher I feel sure PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP Will play your game to ..

They wanted trump they got trump, now the consequences. I am a combat veteran who has been affected by this trump administration, a man who has never served a day in the military is making decisions that affects millions of US veterans, shame on you trump, my loyalty is to the country not to this fraud president.

Trudeau Gov.destroyed Canada all aspect of existing country.\nTrudeau treat Canadian citizens as conquered people. Trudeau acted the same way with USA to involved in election against Trump.\nCanadian paíd for enviroment to kill own economy to grow..\nNow ,For Canadian citizens is better to be state of USA not too much tax.more freedom,not discrimination the white Christian man. It is wrong to create hate against American what next - contempt latter degenaration.\nTrudeau want to made damage to USA. The best,after stop deliver hydro ,energía is develop produce,fantynol will be big problem\nI prefere Alberta Primer Schmit to find solution in talking deal.\nOther way is join to USA for better life for Canadian people, and better west global possibility against China\n.

Why can’t we have a real leader like this! Instead we have a belligerent egomaniac Russian asset as president. He shouldn’t have even had 10% of the vote. Y’al knew better but didn’t vote better because of many superficial reasons, among them, sexism and racism. Now all of us Americans are losing. I’d love to see the day when we as Americans can come together as ONE & stand up against people like Trump that are harming all Americans. United we stand. Divided, ALL of us fall. Some of y’al thought it wouldn’t impact you even if his policies impacted others (and not you) so you didn’t care and voted for public enemy #1 despite all the warnings given. Now here we are. I really truly hope that America has a whole will look at ourselves in the mirror at what we’ve allowed to be, and change our ways by coming together as one country that wants to see Americans do well and be good and be able to take care of their families, regardless of race or sex, or gender, immigration status or any of the superficial barriers.

Trump gave earlier the real reason why he started this trade war: he wants Canada to become the 51st state of the USA. He also wants Greenland so he can secure the Northern passage.\nCanada is a country of the British Commonwealth, and it is interesting that Trudeau met with King Charles last week. Oddly enough, the British Prime Minister dodged questions from White House reporters on this topic.\nNow about the G7 forthcoming summit: Trump is a convicted felon and may not attend without the permission of the host country, which this year happens to be Canada!

As an American, I can appreciate Canada's response to the felon president. We want Trump, Miller, MAGA politicians and Elon out. They are bullies and Putin's puppets.

Nice and polite, but I think that's not the point concerning Putin, sorry Trump's point of vieuw. They want Canada beeing the next state to be added to the US.

Trump stated during his campaign that this was coming. This is on the American voters. You wanted this, now you've got it. Not sure how you thought that higher prices for everything would be a win for you, but here you go...

I live in Nashville, TN USA. I am so sorry Canada is suffering due to Trump. I do not support this move on Trump's part. I never voted for him. I have known for many years he is a dangerous narcissist. Canada is our friend. You have come to our aide in times of trouble. Our forest fires, 911 when the planes hit our twin towers. Trump wants a 4.5 Trillion dollar tax cuts for the wealthy. He sees tariffs as a way to make up some of that money alone with huge budget cuts to many of our programs. Trump is an unreasonable person who only thinks about himself. I hope he will eventually be impeached. I do not blame Canada. I blame Donald Trump and the the Republican Congress. This is a coupe going down in our country and it is sad to watch. Take good care.

It is a surreal moment when USA has entered into a war with our best friend and ally neighbor Canada, and we don't even know why. Nobody voted for this, did MAGA vote for this? Why on earth we are allowing Trump to do it, why Congress is allowing it, why aren't we on the streets protesting, do we want to wait until it gets worse, or beyond the point of return? Trump is a madman, petty, vindictive, selfish, ignorant and totally brainwashed by Putin and his agenda to divide us. Trump is the Manchurjan candidate, planted to destroy us from within. US at war with Canada, even if is a trade war, is scandalously unprecedented and is treasonous.

Many of Americans do not want this. This is all Maga and Donald Trump. He has placed all American lives in danger. He is not fit to be our President.

I don't agree with this one single bit. Why is he making trouble for our allies? I am no democrat. Nobody, not even the majority of those that voted Trump wants him to cause trouble with our friends. They didn't vote for this.

When Putin is finished with Ukraine, he is coming for the U.S. We will have no allies left to defend us. Just as he wants it. Trump is Putin's puppet.

As a 72 year old American veteran that doesn’t want to bare the pain of a trade war…\nBut I stand with Canada.\nDon’t back down from tRump!\nSAVA CANADA❣️

Mr. PM trust me when I say most of us do not want this, and did not vote for MR Trump!!! Please remember most of us 1000% disagree and are embarrassed to see what he is doing to our friends.

I'm canadian and trudolf is a piece of ?.The corrupt liberals have destroyed Canada not trumps tariffs. If the tariffs are not bad enough this corrupt liberal reciprocal tariffs are going to destroy us even more. This piece of garbage froze our bank accounts when we peacefully protested against his tyranny. Don't be fooled by this dictator. This is exactly what he wants it plays into the corrupt liberal agenda to make the people more dependent on the government. Trudolf is a lying piece of ?

Maybe building a Boarder Wall on America's Northern Boarder would be a good idea. Canada is responsible to guard our boarders and allow in only those who we feel qualify. Canada does not close it's boarders to those who wish to leave, nor does the United States close it's boarders to those who wish to leave. The United States is free to put up a wall and a boarder crossing anywhere you wish, stop whoever you want to stop from entering your country. I can tell you that The fastest Boarder Wall that I have ever seen go up is the one that Trump just raised between the United States and Canada, the Tariff Wall. What you have done is put signs on our shelves, buy Canadian. You have taken American Product from the top shelf, to the verry bottom shelf, behind the Made in China. You have closed the Travel Agencies to United States travel, nobody wants to go to your country, and I heard that there is going to be a 250% Tariff on hotel accommodations for Americans visiting Canada. It is not only about the Tariffs on Canada, who Used to be your friends, it is about your new friend Russia, who support Terrorist organizations all over the world, including the ones in Gaza who held Americans Hostage, who supports IRAN who supports Russia in murdering and raping women, kidnapping children in Ukraine, torturing and murdering citizens with their hands tied behind their backs. If this is what America supports, if this is what America does to its Ally's, I hope the taps for the oil and the switch for the electricity are turned off, and we never have to worry about each other ever again.\n\nCanada is a country with an Area roughly the size of the United States, with a population 340 Million is 8 1/2 times larger than Canada at $40 Million, with a GDP 9 1/2 times larger than Canada. America is a Bully.

Canadian brothers and sisters, please know this isn't what many of us Americans want. We have elections every 4 years. Please do your best not to hate us forever because of this. Please don't lose sight that this Trump era will pass.

Trump craves to be a dictator. He’s Putin’s puppet. He is clearly trying to align America with Russia, but Americans don’t want what this. This is the biggest betrayal to the United States, EVER! Absolutely disgusting!

Donald Trump must be impeach NOW for betrayal of public trust. Making an alliance with a war criminal Putin(a wanted murderer) makes Donald Trump unworthy of being a US President. He puts the world in grave danger.

No body understand Trump till now.He want Canadian resources for free! he don't want to spend any penny and want to colonize Canada.That's it.

Donald Trump wants to be like Putin. Americans, What have you done?

People..Hello..I believe that Trump has aligned himself with Russia, not our allies. Trump's new DOJ has immediately ceased prohibiting foreign money or interference in our Election's. They've stopped our offensive Cyber SECURITY team that prevent Russia from attacking US targets. Why would he do that? Trump has fired Apolitical Generals and Chiefs of staff in the Military, JAG and prosecutor's who weed out fraud or corruption, even involving Trump's actions. Trump doesn't want stopped, if he wants to change the Constitution or demand the Military to arrest citizens. He's Dismantled checks and balances, and evades the Rule of Law. Trump stopped US aid to keep Ukraine's Power Grid functioning, so people hospitalized wouldn't freeze to death. We obviously have a Russian Asset running the Oval office. It only took HITLER 53 day's to become a Dictator. You had better speak up quickly, Republicans and Democrats or you are going to lose your FREEDOMS.

US & Russia. Why? Plain and simple, Trump is infatuated with power. He is a criminal. He wants to remain in power as long as possible. He will write into legislation that a president can remain in power longer than 2 terms. Just like Vladimir did. It’s plain and simple. Trumps main goal is dictatorship. Not the people of America. For his own glory

As a American I can’t be move proud and happier with my vote!! American is so back let’s go trump!!! Canada don’t want this smoke we’ll come take your land off you

Do you understand that Trump wants World War III? He wears two diapers and has very little time left to live. He doesn’t care if the world exists after him! Can you imagine that this is just the beginning? That he and Musk will do something so disastrous that our planet will simply cease to exist! impeach Trump and put Musk in jail!

Prices will go sky high now in america and people will suffer the got want now with trump.?

Trump wants to keep you out though, Justin. Your a crackpot, that's why you're being pushed out...

I think Traitor Don-the-Con is jealous of Trudeau, and Malanya's infatuation with him. I don't think that Trump's mafia wants interference in illegal drug controls, which reportedly are all over Narco Lago and among the thugs there.
