Thats how to response to a narcissist, don't give in Canada & Mexico!

Dumb move, Trudeau. Trump doesn't fear measured responses; he's not a normal person. He only understands if you hit him back much harder than he hits you. \nCanada should NOT impose retaliatory counter tariffs that harm CANADIANS (Or do like China and impose 75% Tariffs on US items Canada can easily buy elsewhere). Rather, Canada should shut the OIL spigot and cancel electric feeds into the USA. RIGHT NOW. THAT would have the required effect and NOT HARM Canadians.

Stupid games, stupid prizes. False claims about your identity clogging up the bureaucracy of your own nation should be met with equally unhelpful responses

Wasn’t Canada responsible for the creation of war crimes in WWI or something to that effect? Can we create trade war crimes 100 years later? ??

President Trump is not surprised at the response. He's always 5 steps ahead!

This is pure aggression by Maga sociopaths and billionaires geo political delusions,along with threats of 51 state.\nPanama,Greenland,Mexico. They are not kidding. The Maga clones in Canada,smith,moe,PP and every “ conservatives “ political party is pure Maga clones and bootlickers. They are not loyal to the country they’re loyal to their extremist maga ideology of hateful rhetoric and morally bankrupt ideology. Not to Canada,look at the response from PP and smith…disgraceful \nWe need political leadership that is Canadian not right wingnuts from Amerikkka. That means Maga.\nAmericans are our closest friends and allies…but Maga is a cancer on society and freedom,democracy and sane government,in America and damn sure in Canada…

Isn't illegal immigrants coming into the US the responsibility of US Border Service Land Sea and Air??\n\nIt's very clear that some of your border agents are on the take \n\nToo Funny

To a insane narcissist, it is always the other person who is to blame. There is zero responsibility of self. It is part of this form of insanity.

Justin Trudeau's border plan of 1.3 billion over six to ten years is a joke! Tariffs on America after several US administrations tried to work with Canadian governments to stop provocations in trade, border security, immigration, and many other issues, only to fall on deaf ears or passive responses, not to mention Trudeau's derogatory comments about Trump being a racist. At the same time, Trudeau was caught having a history of wearing racist blackface. Not wise! \n\nFor some odd reason, Trudeau thought it was also wise to mock the American President, Donald Trump, with other European leaders while attending a meeting in the UK at Buckingham Palace, which clearly invited bad blood between the two. Not to mention his missteps while traveling in Europe and meeting with Kamala. He also increasingly chose to snuggle up to China. However, America has provided Canada with favorable trading relations and high-cost subsidies in the form of military and territorial security for decades. That clearly was a slap in the face and wasn't very smart! You had to figure some American president would ultimately say enough!\n\nAmerica has supported, defended, and offset the national defense costs of European nations for over seventy years, while EU countries and their leaders have routinely mocked and ridiculed Americans. Is it really classy to slap the face of someone who protects and supports you and your quality of life? No, it's not! Tariffs on EU products are likely coming soon, and reduced defensive support for Europe means they will have to pay more taxes for their defense and goods.

why doesnt Canada just sanction America? ban all American goods in response? forcing trump to waive the tarifs?

Trump’s response will likely be “you want to retaliate by adding a 25% tariff? Ok, now we’re raising the tariff to 50%. How do you like them apples?”

What a lazy and weak response ?

Trudeau and the NDP-Libs have left Canada a weakened, vulnerable and unproductive country, on the verge of economic disaster. This is all on Trudeau!\n\nWe have no leader, and the individual leading “Team Canada”, won’t be around to fulfil the commitments.\n\nThis is a group of leadership Premiers, trying but without any authority. \n\nWe have no working Parliament. \n\nAnd, they have completely ignored the issues laid before them, not just recently but for years. The border security issues (including the ports), the immigration issues, the fentanyl issues, the military issues…. overridden by woke waste.\n\nThey’ve destroyed our entire economy to reduce our supposed 2% responsibility for climate change. But we have done nothing to reduce or eliminate for our supposed 2% fentanyl responsibility. \n\nWe need Trudeau gone, Parliament restored, and an election called!

Half of Canada’s military equipment is unserviceable and not combat ready. Think about that. They are 20 billion dollars short on their military spending, are one of 8 NATO countries that have missed their required 2% GDP spending on defense, and have no plan to achieve their responsibilities to defend themselves and their alliance. What are they thinking poking the USA? That might co e back to haunt you when you need them.

Game on. Time to bankrupt Mexico. It is a failed narco state. Canada? Nice people, but their woke leaders have neglected their responsibilities to the point over half of Canadians want to join the United States. I think the Canadian political class has lost control of their country, and like the US Democratic Party, they are out of touch with the common sense citizen who just wants to work, take care of their families and live in peace with their neighbors.

Prime minister of Canada gave a great response to trump now that's intelligent spence

Anti-Trump is Pro-American. This corrupt president is against the people. Tariffs combined with his other tax cuts are a plot to shift more tax burden off his oligarch cronies and onto the poor and middle class despite the out-of-control wealth inequality destroying our democracy. Don't forget that he never closed tax loopholes (carried interest for example) exploited by the rich like he promised. He wants to distract while he robs and enslaves us. It is sad that it has come to this. I just ask the allies of the American people to please look for ways to specifically punish the oligarchs and politicians responsible rather than the many American people who are on your side.

According to google Canada's experts to Usa were 590billion dollars in 2023 and president trump put a %25 tariff for all of it excluding energy.\nNow Canada responded with 30 billion tariff with same rate things such as florida orange juice, tennessee whiskey ... and planning to put another 120billion worth of goods of Usa don't lift the tariffs in 21 days. In any way from these numbers, it looks like Usa is going to rip off canada a lot.\n\nReal response should have been %25 tariff to all usa goods without exception until they lift their tariffs!

responsible work by justin, and might i say, eh, madam melanie is looking fantastic to me.

trump lies to his nation and others nations too. fentanyl is not even a real issue. theres like 1 percent of usa fentanyl coming from canada. i hope americans will get rid of him. this is an unjustified tariff against an ally country and its unacceptable. usa are responsible to take care of their own borders in the first place.

Trump promised retaliatory tariffs in response to Canada's tariffs. So what will the new tariffs be: 50%? USA will be hurt by Canadian tariffs, but given its smaller economy, in four years, Canada will be economically destroyed by US tariffs. Canadian dollar, which is 1.45 to the US dollar, may soon rise to 1.8-2.0, and Canada's leading bankers have said that Canada is looking at high interest rate and recession.

Democracy is always based on trust and dictatorship on fear... the latest is the US choice for President... as for the response, Canadians are very polite, but we never, never back away from a fight with a bully... as Bogard would say... is this the end of a beautiful friendship...

Trump’s tariffs (/geo-economic warfare)—and his desire to annex Canada and Greenland and seize back control of the Panama Canal—has got little to do with immigration or drugs coming into the US (whatever happened to Build the Wall?) especially in the case of Canada. It’s about debt and power, the former growing, the latter fading. Trump himself has said tariffs are a means to make America wealthy and to abolish income tax. It’s got to do with America living outside its means with massive deficits and ballooning debt, and rather than take responsibility for that, the US thinks others should pay (when US consumers will) for it to continue to live outside its means, while it cuts taxes largely to the benefit of the wealthy... \nRemember when Iraq invaded Kuwait, how it said it was because Kuwait (and the United Arab Emirates) caused a drop in oil prices with the overproduction of crude oil, thus impacting Iraq’s ability to pay its debts and recover from the Iran-Iraq war, but really it was about seizing Kuwait’s large oil reserves, canceling the debt it owed Kuwait, and expanding its power in the region… Sound similar?

What are This people thinking? That we owed them something,?? why they are not moré careful with the type of governments they picked themselves in their own countries, it’s easy to migrate and expect other people to pay for their bad decisions. Things don’t work that way. Send them to the crooks Demonrats houses that are responsible for this his mess.

We are finally taking care of our own?‍♀️. Cannot believe we spend millions of dollars on people that are not citizens of this country?‍♀️?. But tax, abuse, and mistreat our own citizens. America was the stupidest, illogical place ever. Our citizens are in debt from trying to better themselves from a country they are born, and raised in. Yet before you help them, you help an outsider before you help your own who is poor, and starving citizens, crying out for help, and many who are homeless, and starving in their own county! How backwards ?‍♀️?. Glad we are finally telling countries to take care of their own, and we will take care our own. You wouldn’t expect anyone to take care of your children, it is your responsibility. The same goes for citizens. We shouldn’t be funding everyone else life, and investing in them , while our own are hurting, and starving. Before you support freeloaders, look into your own life, and see if it’s something you need. It’s finally time we are focusing on our citizens, and trying to meet their needs. They are our responsibility. We should have never taken the focus off of them. Let that country take care of their responsibilities, and we take care of our because our citizens need help. There should never be a homeless, or starving American with all the money we give to other counties, instead of meeting our own needs. Take care of your own backyard first, and let them take care of theirs. It is their responsibility to take care of their own, and ours to take care of our citizens.

it's called Biden mass illegal border crossings deportation. the Biden administration is responsible for the mass deportation, the Biden-Harris administration's deliberate policy choices let to this crisis. these unlawful reckless Policies destroyed border security, encouraging millions of illegal aliens from all over the world to enter the country unlawfully, including terrorists and criminals, and deteriorated the legal immigration system. the most clueless incompetent irresponsible unqualified reckless administration I've ever seen unfit Biden and clueless Harris let us make sure this does not happen again.

Mr president elect kindly use your good office for consideration because lots of our fore fathers biblical all sojourn in foreign country but they leave as responsible humans beings wth the fear of almighty God . Sir appy wisdom in your judgement and action .

IT'S NOT AMERICAS RESPONSIBILITY TO HELP THESE PEOPLE !

More human pain, suffering, and deaths have occurred during the 4 years of BIDEN'S administration and with Democrat immigration policies. Turning a blind eye to obvious issues can be more destructive than actually BECOMING A RESPONSIBLE MATURE ADULT IN A CIVILIZED SOCIETY.

Very balanced responses from the guest on this segment.

Omg tjank god for trump god bless the service men amd women of our army. IcE. First response and all . Imagine they would come in? How mych the left hate america to open a border . Really thank god first and our president.

I bet you there are paid instigators in the crowd that started all this, as for the people responsible it could be the cartels or even the democrats.

The NGOs responsible for this should be held accountable.

Too often people need a foil, someone to blame for their inability to get ahead or fear being replaced. \nTo even get to 1M deported he needs over 2,700 sent back 7 days/week. Not happening. \n30,000 at Gitmo...not happening. \nNo come the drama responses. \nEnjoy your crypto.

Why is the government lowering standards and allowing too many students with fake credentials to enter the country? Does anyone know the real number? This is not a competitive market – these students work anywhere, anytime, for any salary, just to apply for PR. \nAfter a few years, they start sponsoring their entire village to come here. Is the government ready to absorb all these communities with all social implications? The second and third-tier schools that turn a blind eye to this issue, focusing only on enrollment and revenue, should be held accountable for the mess they have created and should take responsibility for accommodating all students with fake credentials and remove the pressure on the housing market. \nThe scholarship mafia creates chaos and others are left to fix the mess.

Mexico should we responsible or even allowing them to come into their country like that at that many people

Demócratas have responsibility of these sad situation?

Do you not understand, they have broken the law along with most of them are violent criminals and the Biden administration is responsible for the damages and really need to be accountable along with these Democrats in these Sanctuary cities, no more enough is enough law and order will be restored!.

While I don’t agree with anyone entering the US illegally, those that are saying “fix your own country” is easier said than done, my response to that is “why don’t you fix the things you hate or complain about throughout your life”? Don’t worry I’ll wait ?\n\nA lot of these people are broke, have little to no education (partly because they were broke), and can barely make money to feed themselves. None of us get to write a wishlist as to where we are born or who our parents are. This is just part of an unfortunate circumstance. \n\nNow if you’re a criminal and want to commit crimes in the US, you don’t deserve anything in life.

I wish the Dems would realize that illegal entry cannot stand. Trump needs to make a decree that makes it impossible to get anything from any level of government. That would stop the flow immediately. Most of these aren't people working toward a goal, they just want to escape their impoverished country. Stay in your own countries, stop voting in Socialists, and make your governments responsive to the common good. You can have what America represents to you with some work.

I'm so confused! Who is the victim? So I committed a crime and I have children, and the children were put in this situation of fear and uncertainty because it's government's fault that I committed a crime? Therefore, all those years they shut an eye letting people in illegally？ Aren't those thepeople who should share the responsibilities of causing all this painful situations???

Surely, a country has the right and responsibility to control its border entries. If the US needs immigrant Ag labour, it should provide an immigration status for temporary Ag work.

Main side point is once you’re in the active duty military, the Government pays all your medical expenses 100% through TRICARE. It is not the tax payers financial responsibility or the governments to continuously take on this private elected debt of one’s choosing. Trans have always found a way to get their gender changed in the private medical sector without adding to the already multi trillion dollar debt we are in. This is a logical and sound decision and it speaks the voice of over 70 million Americans who wanted it. No opinions on that. Facts. ?? stay straight

We're not responsible for the world !! Take care of your own ! We owe you people nothing, no matter what Biden and the Democract party think !!!

As a combat veteran of Iraq and Afghanistan, multiple times, I completely agree with the president’s anti-trans policy in the military. Soldiers have a hard enough job as it is much less stacking on some DEI nonsense. That’s only gonna take time away from their training and ultimately DEI is going to 100% negatively affect the mission and their safety. Of personally over a 10 year period served with a couple gay and lesbian Service members and never once was what they did in the privacy of their own bedroom ever an issue or counter to the mission but this new age woke DEI nonsense is completely counterproductive, dangerous, And disrespectful to the non-DEI service members. The simple act of picking an unqualified, military leader, who’s responsible for the care and lives solely on the gender, ethnicity, religion, or pronoun, and not on merit, experience, competency, or any of the other real requirements for a military leader is literally the most irresponsible, dangerous, and disrespectful thing you can do to the men and women who have literally dedicated their life for years in service of our country! There’s absolutely no excuse on this planet that would make it ok. Being a service member in combat is already the most stressful job on the planet, but to make them take their focus off of the immediate threat to focus on political correctness or someone’s magical mystery pronoun while trying to prioritize and mitigate threats and combat is the most asinine and literally dangerous Nonsense I’ve ever heard!??????

Go ahead and protest. Just more disruption on top of disruption. The US does not have a responsibility to support every abnormalty just the way you want. All you have to do is get a haircut and check the box that says male. Constrain your sexuality to the bedroom. Do not make it an issue for normal people.

While I mostly agree with the commander's comments, she couldn't be more wrong when she talks about Pete Hegseth's misconception of transgenderism. At that level of power and responsabilities it's either ignorance or malice. Both disqualify him from being a US official.

I like how CNN cuts off the response of the interviewee. Journalists have left their profession. There profession is to represent both sides of any story, not ask question, then censor the answer they dont like.

I have to question someone who does not have a proper grasp of physical reality as to their grasp of reality in other areas. How can I be sure that the mechanism responsible for properly understanding reality is not so broken that the individual is not able to properly assess military situations on which many lives may in fact depend. We need people in the military that have a properly functioning reality assessment mechanism in place, not broken machinery.
