This is what a real leader looks like. This is an intelligent, serious person.

Donald Trump, can you see what a real Prime minister sounds and looks like ? smart and classy ?

China looking like a real good trading partner right about now.

The US is showing the world it is now an unreliable, untrustworthy partner. Canada will suffer these tariffs imposed arbitrarily by Pres.Trump, but Canada will always be a reliable and trustworthy partner. I think the real reason Pres Trump is trying to subjugate Canada is he doesn't want the constant reminder what a true friend and trustworthy partner looks like. He is embarrassed by the comparison.

THIS IS WHAT REAL LEADERSHIP LOOKS LIKE I'M WITH CANADIANS CAN I MOVE THERE WERE IT'S SAFE!

I'm just going to clarify something remember when they said Trump had allies with Russia now you see what the Democrats were talking about. Trump always blames democrats for his faults. Trump had you guys convinced not to vote for Democrat. Now are allies don't even want to deal with the US anymore which is understandable because of what the whole nation seen with their own eyes and heard with their own ears. Trump says he wants to make America Great American dream not for Americans maybe for you Republicans I guarantee a lot of Republicans don't agree with him but they all are scared to say anything to Trump and his team which that is disturbing within itself. Trump needs to be impeached he's causing to much chaos and still getting away with people's lives in real life situations this is not a joke. As for JD Vance his vice president he was laughing and asking Zelenskyy why was he not wear a suit what about Elon musk he wasn't wearing a suit? And when you ask another person to come from another country to the White House they are dressed in their traditional clothing to be mocked by these men is despicable. Real people lost their jobs, real people are dying that need aid,for them to shut down the military aid was a slap in the face,mind you they sit back and laugh about it.. Russia is the last person Trump should be nice Putin is not on the US side it's obvious but Trump laughs with him, communicate better with Putin which is disturbing as well. Having the power and money makes people so entwined into their own world,Trump should think about Americans first and not act like a disrespectful person he ruined his chance not Zelenskyy. Now We the people are looking at our President and vice President like the are unhinged, disrespectful, uncompassionate, and down right rude. Kamala,Tim warned everyone Barak, Michelle, Biden did also y'all should have listened. I voted for Kamala and Tim. If Trump wants peace he needs to stop with all the madness and focus fixing the US.

Canada, we are so sorry and ashamed. We are proud of you for standing up to us and showing us what real friendship looks like. We are working to get better, but it may take awhile.

You are looking at the real fascist dictator. Suddenly this moron who said Canada has no National Identity is now suddenly a patriotic Canadian. Don't fall for for his BS. He is evil with a haircut and suit.

I mean he’s certainly well spoken Im sure we all can agree but factual….not so much. People do your research on Chinese Triad gang members buying up real estate in Vancouver to launder money from drug sales. There is no doubt a growing problem in Canada that is impacting the US. By the numbers Canada illegal border crossings and Fentanyl crossing volume might pale in comparison to Mexico but it’s important to note that it’s still a rising problem they’ve yet to fully understand. Look at how much of the Northern US border is unguarded compared to the southern border. This tariff war between the US and Canada is no doubt a problem but Canada is absolutely a part of the reason it exists. In the end please remember there’s always two sides to every story and mainstream media is anything but objective when it comes to how they cover them.

Here's my issue with Trudeau ...you now placed your country in a position where this becomes a game of tariff chicken. This won't end well for Canada no matter what tariffs you try to envoke to counter Trump. The U.S. aren't dependent on Canada. So, what is your real endgame here matching the tariffs? Is that what the people of Canada really want to get into? Doesn't seem smart to me. It just looks like a lazy game of posturing trying impose some front like the U.S. need to back down from Canada. What a joke.

No made up words or insults-- can we Americans even imagine this is what a real leader looks like? #FCKYOURVOTERSREMORSE

As an American I can say wholeheartedly, “Wow, so that’s what real leadership looks like!”\nMeanwhile, we’re stuck with Mr Orange… ?

As a real Hispanic American??, from Texas I stand with America ?? and President Donald J Trump ?? \n\nCanada looks like a Austin Powers scene ? they are slowly taking our freedom as well open your eyes

Dear orange president dumba$$, this is what a real leader looks like. Just like Zelensky, he is a straight talking leader. Take a lesson, you big orange loser.

Prime Minister Trudeau is a real leader, calm, polite, intelligent and well spoken. Unfortunately, many americans do not see Donnie and vnace as real nor reasonable leaders.\n\nEdit: I truly hope that people like General Clark look really close at the inofrmation that came out that Donnie is actually a russia asset and groomed to have been for decades.

Someone with balls at last. This is what a real country leader looks like. Thank you Canada.

OMG this is what a REAL leader looks and sound like. You go Trudeau!

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.

This is what a real leader looks like.

This is what a real leader looks like. From and American who is sad our elected (and not elected...) officials slip further into fascism. Love my Canadian brothers and sisters.

This is what a leader, a real leader…intelligent and savvy…looks like. When Trump looks into the mirror, this is not what is reflected back. The reflection looks like a four year old child, crying because Daddy doesn’t love him. It’s sad but we will be paying dearly for a child’s temper tantrum and very disturbing behaviors. Wake up United States, Congress, Republicans and Democrats, the entire News Media, and uninformed voters. This country, our country is at risk of going the way of all fallen dynasties…into oblivion. God help us all. Sorry dear Canada, so sorry.

This is what a real president looks like

Watch out Canada, there's going to be a lot of US citizens looking to move north. The real best country on earth.

Coming from a guy that doesn't quite look like he's going to be there long. 1.7 trillion that's trillion dollars of manufacturing money coming to America because of the tarrif threats. Not Canada but America, real jobs and money not government jobs.

This is what real leadership looks like Trump

Wowwww… Now that’s a real azz President… As a American citizen just watching this… I see families looking for visas to Canada now … Way to go Yellow Man U are fcking us day by day …

Only a fool causes a trade war with Canadian over sych foolish issues. I apologize Canada for my government's actions. I applaud Trudeau's strong example of what real leadership looks like.

As an American, I'm embarrassed how our president acts and talks. God-bless us all. Look how a real president talks and acts Canadian should be proud.

This is what a REAL leader looks and talks like!

As a Canadian this lying fraud drama teacher (look up why he lost his job) needs to be removed from office. Call an election and stop your pretend tough guy act. Stop sending our money to your money laundering friends. The real losers are Canadians our economy has been destroyed by this fraud.

Wall Street is wrong. Trump is NOT smart.\n\nThis is what a real world leader looks like, what a REAL man looks like.\n\nTrump is putting the screws to the American people. He’s grab America by the pussy.\n\nIt’s disgusting. Turning us into an “AntiAmerca”does NOT make America great

Mr, Trudeau prime minister, I am glad that you are standing up to trump do what is right for your country do not allow this, man child trump push you around, stand up take a stand do what is right what is just, your people who voted for you deserve it, show the world ?? that integrity, honestly and the rule of law still matters, let the world see trump for what he is, and I say to the other leaders do not be afraid to do the right thing, a good leader loves his people a good leader protects it's people , silence ? at this point in time is not acceptable, when you see tyranny speak up i asked my father ounce what makes a man, i could see in his face that he was thinking about this question very hard and he turned and looked at me and said, a man will stand up for what he believes in,no matter the price, and a real man will always protect those that can't protect themselves, for this is the mark of a real man and gentleman, i have never forgotten those words that he spoke to me, and I believe that this saying also has religious implication as well, after everything is said and done it's not the voters that are going to judge you in the end it's god and he is going to judge you on his standards not MAGA

Go Canada! This is what a real leader looks like. Not watching Trumps address later. Why bother?

Hey Trump, this is what a real leader looks like. As an American I'm so ashamed of our government. We love you Canada.

This is what a real politician looks and sounds like. Respect.

This is what a real leader looks like. \nGAWD DAMN. Why LAWD??? Why have forsaken US of A.

This is what a real leader looks like. He might not be perfect, but he clearly has the best interests of his (and other) people at heart, rather than being a slave to his own ego.

Despite how horrible this is, it makes my day knowing how many folks in the US are looking at their Red Hats wondering what the hell they voted for, and effectively what *they’ve done to a perfectly good country. \n\nThe amount of regret they are having must be debilitating; knowing they merely got sucked into a marketing campaign, abandoned friends & family, and are now realizing they were chewed up and spit out. \n\nIt’s a real shame, in several ways ..

More and more obvious every day. Trump is owned by PUTIN! He acts as an enemy toward we American people, and toward our true allies. He MUST be removed from power immediately. He is compromised and unfit to lead or to represent the real United States of America!! Just look at all the damage he has done already!!!

THAT is a real Leader, I am so looking forward to the end of the next 3.75 years. Themost shameful 4 years of American leadership.

Looks like Bob Dylin is likely to release another award-winning double album recording real soon. 2025 wow! The Presidents in the basement ringing up the Kremlin, JDs at the makeup bench applying fresh mascara, Its aright mar, wear all negotiating, Ding a Ding a ling a dig,.

This is what a real leader looks like

This what real leadership looks like. This is how government should function. Clear, concise & reasonable.

You know there's an old saying that I'm sure Trump is very wise about you keep your friends close and your enemies closer I would say the way Canada is talking they consider us an enemy look at all these other countries that suddenly lined up against America who bailed all of them out of World War II and who brought down the Berlin Wall that shows how thankful you are and America's been paying the highest of the EU and the United Nations than any of you chicken countries I would just laugh at all of you you don't get it and all these comments are from Liberal Democrats who hate Trump it's real obvious that's who his fan base is Trudeau the little boy from the north who's not smart enough to come in from the cold poor guy he's in for a rude awakening she thinks he's going up against America and that we believe any of his BS

Anti American!!! Breaking up with America - Wow so biased CNN...in your president's eyes, fake news! Let's get real -American CNN...look at the facts!!!

Having aid that I love the American people ...they must step up!

Canadá is my favorite neighbor and I hope that this Republican caused ass kissing of Putin gets resolved soon! What our leaders have done to our great neighbors is sickening ! This is all done to make the Rich Richer and to Hell with those in need!\n Not One Republican will speak up! Then the sad,sad thing they did to a country lastly looking for help against Putin!\n They submarines him in a setup, all preset, and this man more of a man Than any Republican will ever be VOLADAMER ZELENSKY HE IS A REAL HERO Trump has to go!

This is what a real leader looks and sounds like.

This is what a real leader looks like.

Hey Donald, that's what it looks like to be a real leader. Take notes! Donald Trump is such an embarrassment and no, he's NOT a smart guy.

It gets real when leaders start speaking out. We Americans are so misinformed as a whole these days. This has to speak to something! WAKE up MAGA, we need our country sane not separated. On the big stage we don’t look good as Americans. We’re too busy fighting each other.
