What does Trump gain personally from this?

I wish Americans would understand that these tariffs are the biggest grift he’s had on them. American consumers will foot the bill of tariffs to fund the tax cuts for corporations and the wealthiest. Basically, it’s a tax cut funded by the everyday person. Awful.

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.

Great, now the fentanyl will be made in USA and even easier to get. Trump might be the stupidest person on earth.

Mr trump on his first day said that he is a peacemaker and want the world to stop the fight. He will stop russia ukraine war etc \n\nSo then he chose to put tariffs on canada and at the end who is going to get sufffer Americans what a joke of a person trump is then saying something and creating problem for own people.\nThe reasons that he is giving of putting tariffs has no relation to tariffs.\nIf he geniunely wants illegal immigrants n drugs to stop in US then rather working on border or asking canadins ministers to put xtra protection on borders \nHe choses tariffs\nTotally nonsense person

Canadian here. stop selling resources and energy to usa and start charging every american trying to cross the boarder 10k per person just for entry into Canada

The question is, how does this enrich trump personally? His reasons for the tarrifs are lies, so what's the real reason???

Its a bit of a headscratcher why US is imposing heavy handed tariffs on Canada if illegal immigration and drug trafficking from Canada is not that high. Almost seems like a personality issue - Trump doesnt like Trudeau bcoz he made fun of him or something..

Disgusting but typical move by trump. Vets are vets. If you put your fucking life on the line for the country you DESERVE respect and the fact that people are denying that and refusing to respect veterans who served for 20 years because of their personal identity is horrible and they are all cowards who don’t have the courage to do what they did. Trans veterans deserve respect just as much as cisgender veterans. You can have your political opinions, but respect our veterans.

This is completely funny!!! They're going to deport every black person and say that it doesn't matter that you were born in the USA. Bye, bye, Elon Musk!!! He's African, born in South Africa.

Deep down, even from themselves, “trans” individuals are just hungry for attention.. this is so sad. \nWhat this person is sharing IS irrelevant , because He was a Man during deployments. It was a lot of hype for you to go through this embarrassing act representing our country when we’re supposed to be the Strongest country in the world. Well- THIS IS WHY WE AREN’T ANY LONGER. Everybody awake?

So, if in the right-wing playbook. This person is a man in womans cloths then what is their problem. In reality, you don't need a penis to press the trigger on a gun. you use a finger...

Who cares if someone is a trans person? If they have the skillset, knowledge and enthusiasm, it's all good.

A lot of them are in this country scamming people. I am an African American, I have ?been personally affected by the trouble they have caused.

Every person in the USA must be legal.

1:30 the person is idiot, all Punjabis are Indians

I'm glad this person has had an easy time of things but I imagine being transgender would take up a fair bit of your attention and priority, Having to continuously prevent your body reverting to its default appearance. I think the assumption would be your head wouldn't be in the job as much as a bloke who take 4 mins to shower, does twenty push-ups, laces up his boots and gets to work. It's a practicality thing. Why would the armed forces of any nation, have time for trans members when they can just not deal with them? Efficiency is paramount to them. Not kindness and inclusion.

This person talked about how much the military has done for her and her identity. She does not mention serving her country.

Physical and mental health, as well as fitness for duty have nothing to do with gender identity. You can be healthy, unhealthy, or fit/unfit regardless of how you identify in any demographic category. Fit is fit and unfit is unfit. Give me a fit trans person over an unfit cis person any day.

America is considered the power house of democracy and human rights they are double standard. They where supposed to do a constitutional process of checking every illegal immigrant their personal circumstances if they had criminal records and how long they stay in the United States and what they do in the united states if they had any children and family in the united states, help to document those they see fitting then deport criminals of course. Imagine the kind of trauma it brings you leave your wife and kids in united states

USA concerning themselves with homosexuality while China keeps getting richer by the day. No wonder China has grown faster over the years. They stick to real issues and not personal issues!

Here is a woman who was a test pilot and can fly many different aircraft, and served on several tours of duty. And her career is ruined because of Trump. Trump once again showing how stupid and callous he is. Kaitlan is a well-educated, highly intelligent person who should be allowed to continue her career. Trump shouldn't be allowed to continue being president. His arrogant incompetence is an embarrassment to this country.

If HE can still meet the physical and mental requirements then I don't understand the issue, Identify how you want in your personal time and Identify with biology and reality while you're on the job. And dont forget, they may be less physically fit and mentally stable, but they can simply Identify as invincible and then nothing can stop them.

No person living in the US be they Black, White, Hispanic, Asian has anything to fear if they are there legally.

serioulsy fire the person that created this preview/thumbnail image... what a sick slavery image depiction here...

It is hard to even believe the world has come to such a ridiculous, immoral place... I do not understand how people on the news can even discuss these things with a straight face..... Our president is wealthy.He is powerful.He does not have to do anything for anyone .. He is putting his tom energy, an effort and to our country out of the love of God add all of those that are intimidated for no reason by him misunderstand that God illuminates helm and others do not even understand why they hate him.... God does shine through people add. I can promise I have the same hate and people try to destroy me.And I am just a simple person... God is good and I am so happy and evidently, I shine way too bright, also, because my joy in the lord illuminates from me... When I go into a store to use the restroom, and the people working in there has the ability by just looking at me to call 911 and tell them I stole... Which the surveillance never lies..\nYou know something about me was so bothersome to those ladies they couldn't help themselves... But I did.However, receive massive legal problems for making up lies and wasting all fifteen cop cars of cops, they wasted it.... So people need to understand those that shine with God's glory are hated by those that don't serve God... People hate me when I am and giving to them. So it makes all the scents in the world why Trump goes through what he does.. the ones that our most amazing to me are those of the view.... They are so in awe of him.They cannot stop talking about him every day... And I do not even understand how ignorant they or because they are truly in awe of him, they can't manage themselves.... If people would just choose love and support our own president in our country, it would be amazing..\n. I'll bet the united states is the only country that has so much hate for our own people and president... why not just choose to wait and see what happens?Hoping for the best... That man tells us, uh, every time he speaks the most wonderful news we have ever heard... It is obvious by all of the people unable to handle themselves because of his amazing everything... Whoopi Goldberg is the most evil bully that lies like a dog. They let on tv

BANGLADESH : Is there any worthy person or country outside Bangladesh to urgently save and protect this nice country from the clutches of ''Anthrop***gites '' defeated chiefly by India in 1971 ??? ---Professor Dr A K Arthur, England.

You can’t deploy a trans person that relies on drugs and hormones just like you can’t deploy a person that has asthma and relies on an inhaler. Waste of money

This is just a ploy to shake down any person of color! No shame but God is watching

Best idea Trump has ever had every person I met in the army who transitioned literally did 4 years of sitting in the barracks because they couldn't be medically combat ready! Thats a fact they took taxpayer money and didn't do shit! Just because one person did it doesn't mean they all are!

canadian military will take transgender military members. Our military pays for the surgery, gives free counselors. There are a lot of conservatives in the canadian military, including my husband, and he works with a lot of transgender people and no one cares. IF someone wants to transition no one cares, if someone wants to be they/them no one cares. They lives their lives and get the job done. Literally the worst thing that could happen if a person was cut off from hormones was they'd probaby act like PMS. PMS just means not taking peoples shit.

I have a brilliant idea. We all know that it cost a lot of money $50k just to keep a single black person into prison.... nvm i don't wanna sound racist.

Impeach the Felon who is ruining the U.S with his stupidity and fascism egomaniacal evil personalities!

In Spain a lot of military personal changed gender when they finally allow it without needing any medical operation.

And I'm sure with some people coming across the border. There may be a sense of entitlement, but I would think for the majority, it's a sense of hope.\n I wish we could embrace every person. That is good coming across that border with open arms and tell them Hey, it's gonna be all right. It's gonna be okay for you and your family. But unfortunately we can't. It's a hard pill to swallow and it's a final thing to watch. People have to struggle that world is a very cruel place for some. And for others it could be very easy in a sense. I think sometimes we have to have empathy for other people. And if we don't have that we're never gonna grow as a human race. Color should never, ever be a barrier. Language should never be a barrier. The only barrier that we have is hatred and just evil people and good. That is, the barrier that we should be looking at if we ever want to grow into what God created us to be eyes need to be opened. These people aren't coming over here and take what we have. You're coming over here because they want something better for their lives. They have struggled most other lives. I'm sure they have seen death. Famine pestilence, things that we have never seen in this country. Our generation.\n S are spoiled when it comes to things like that. We have to open our eyes a little further broaden. Our horizons and take a look at the situation at hand and not be objective. Be like the men of old and what they were put on this Earth to do is solve problems. That's what men are good for solving problems. And that's what the men of this manner should solve the problems. Use your heads think we can find a solution.

Is Mexico fault they are the the one to let them cross to the country personally at blame Mexico Mexican government is incompetent to let them those people crossing

I would honestly like to know if a female to male pre-op trans person goes to jail/prison, do they believe they should be housed in general population with the men? Since they all believe, pre-op male to female trans people should be housed with the females

This person he was dealing with is an absolute disgrace and I’m embarrassed that this person is a Canadian

Imagine having to pretend someone who should be a private at best is your 'Navy Commander' so they can advertise DEI hires. Embarrassing AF. This person who I wouldn't even give a nod to on the street is a 'commander'. Hilarious and sad. (I never read replies)

This man has served our country for 19 years, regardless of their mental disorder. If this man, not a woman, is a qualified pilot, then I don't see a problem. But a person that thinks their in the wrong body, you have to question their mental status. Regardless, thank you for serving this country.

You're a nasty person

You need a medical waiver to serve in the USMil with Asthma, or any other host of minor physical problems. There is no way a trans person should be allowed, period.

Cnn is weird. Why you use feminine pronouns when referring to a person who has xy chromosomes?

I have never met a single person who is weird enough to be chill with this weird creep. Coming from a gay guy

All yall hating like what are you hating on? This is just a person talking. Hasn’t done anything to you or others like chill.

lol it’s an executive order. It’s over my boy, pull your butt plug out and go sit at home. Is anyone watching the fucking war in Ukraine? Do you not see the POV footage. Tell me a person with their mind in another place is up for the challenge to talk on a Russian in hand to hand vicious combat. Get fucked we lost ourselves.

I reach the section about personal reference code.... I click on vistor visa etc ad you said but mistakenly back out and now when i return back to that section its not giving me visitors visa options only ( express entry/international ?

Best person gets the job, not we need to have different genders fill vacancies. How hard is that.

Sneak in exotic animals is smuggling. Sneak in exotic birds is smuggling. Sneak in a person or yourself is smuggling. They know they are breaking the law. Media needs to stop it.

Regardless if the customer is right about being upset… I would find this personal, NO one should speak to you like that. Of course, if you have any degree of self respect….. on the flip side…. I wouldn’t talk to anyone like that neither as a customer…..
