Oh, to be a fly on the wall when Trump watches Trudeau to say this is dumb! ? ??. I want this as my ringtone ???✌️

So trumps agenda is NO WAR! Is that a problem?? Zelensky was here and then flew back to sign the agreement the Dems had a meeting to stop him, then went in with an attitude, you have the ocean to protect you now but maybe not one day! Is that a THREAT! We have you 177 billion, same gdp as all of Europe they gave 18 billion, so stay with them and the USA is done! How disrespectful! The Dems want war, it makes the politicians tons of money

Trump wants a great American reich….Canada, Greenland and Panama. He wants to be an American Putin

Canada! We didn't want Trump. It was a mistake. Forgive us. Help us fix this! I love you Canada.

I completely agree with what trump did. He’s doing an amazing job! Funny that Trudeau is trying to put forth the same false narratives as our Democratic Party does. You can tell that he def watches cnn and MSNBC. \nThe American people don’t like you Trudeau. Your own people hate you too. You’re a tyrant. What you’ve done to the Canadians is sick. Especially with taking away free speech and jailing people for hateful speech. \nYou people in Canada actually give heroin and cocaine to people who want it at certain safe injection sites. Don’t try to act like you’re really about stopping the drug flow.

I don't think Trump or his followers have the language skills or attention span to understand this.\nThe rest of the Western countries on the other hand want us all to unite and work together. Ignoring the USA and it's implosion. Join the EU guys it'll be fantastic for both of us

This has nothing to do with fentanyl, he wants to take over Canada. So this is Trump having a pissy fit because he didn’t get his own way. Donnie, put your big boy pants on, and act like a grown up if you can.

The tariffs make sense. Putin does not want Canada and the US to prosper… and Putin has Musk and Trump.

i am Canadian.....\n\ni am embarrassed by trump and feel for my American brothers..... i want to know what the end game is for trump - if he feels he gonna bully Canada or other nations he has grossly underestimated those that have supported the US through thick and thin...\n\nif his end game is under cutting NATO - he should review history and realize that the only country that ever requested helps officially under NATO was the US which we in Canada offered no questions asked...\n\nall i say to my Amercian brothers, his term is only 4yrs - we will welcome you back into the fold when this nonsense with Trump is over... I just hope that my politicians dont cause any nonsense and toe the line in being professional...

Americans don't want this, donald trump and every single person working for HIM do not agree with this and are truly ashamed of our current fake government. trump wants to de the dictator of America. That will never happen. My heart is broken for what they are doing and we will correct this. Even the people who voted for him are now figuring out that he said everything they wanted to here to get their vote was a lie and would never fulfill his empty promices(go figure). We true American patriots are truly sorry. Canada is our neighbors and friends.

This has nothing to do with fentanyl. Trump wants Canada's rare earth minerals. He's trying to destroy Canada so he can support his AI Ambitions.

It is so obvious tRump and the republicans want to see the US burn for Putin.

We’ll buy their oil and gas in Europe. Trump has made it clear, he only wants to do business with dictators. We don’t want anything to do with US goods and services. We know Canada stands by its allies.

in tennis, you will hit a ball to a far corner to get the player as far as possible, to then hit a ball to the other corner and score. trump throws his lies and fake concerns left and right and everyone is running for them, the media, other countries, maga people use this misinformation as an excuse... here you see Mr President say - we already had an excellent border control but we went ahead and spent 1.3 billion dollars more. why? trump never cared for that. just like Trump doesn't care what Mr Zelenskyy would say in the Oval Office, he has his plans and agenda. he wants to isolate USA, be friends with ruzzia and be a dictator. so maybe fucking treat him as such now, before its too late?

We don't want this either, Canada! We are appalled of Trump's actions, and are looking to leave the United States before we are forced to bow down to Putin! We love you, Canada!!!

I'm teary ? while watching this.\n DONALD TRUMP Why you're doing this to us all? YOU ARE FULL OF GREED. MAY ALL THE WEALTH YOU WANT COMES WITH YOU 6 FEET UNDER.\n .. We CANADIANS will fight until the end. ?? ? ?? ? ?? ?

The American people don't want this either! We're mortified at the idiot in the White House. We all know this isn't about fentanyl. It's about Trump and Vance destroying all of the relationships with our allies and aligning with the communist/dictatorial countries in the world. Is this what y'all voted for, MAGA?

Just imagine a similar (Trump, Vance and Zelensky) dialogue - but in 1940. \n \nThe Reich is furiously bombing Britain! Churchill flies to Washington for help. and Roosevelt tells him, ‘Sir, your card is dealt. ‘Make a deal with the Führer before it's too late. ‘He's a peace-loving man. I've known him a long time.’ \nTo which Churchill replies: ‘But, Mr President, he's bombing us! My predecessors in 1938 tried to negotiate with him, but you see what happened? He doesn't honour any treaties on principle.’ \nVice President Garne enters the conversation: ‘Churchill, your country is a mess! We and Hitler want peace, and you want war! It's you who are incapable! You disrespect our Oval Office with your demands for support.’ \nRoosevelt adds: ‘Yes, Churchill, you're playing with World War II! Make peace with Hitler immediately, and give us all the resources of your island. By the way, where's your suit?’ \nTo which Churchill replies: ‘I'll wear it after the war.’

The only one thing Trump is around for is to make everybody else his minions, that is what he works for to get his kicks from - all the Trump willie show is about that and that is his only card. He doesn't do politics or economics or any of that. He does his 'You Have To Be Minions' willie show, and he does fall out of his pants when people can't be tricked. - That is the one red line he can be identified for. Sure, there is danger as long as the citizens in the U.S. haven't got rid of this cancer cell. It is the modern Adolf Hitler. So make sure to get past him in the shortest time possible - with the smallest damage caused - by any chance. Observation and criticism towards this fascistoid psychopath is surely unavoidable, but it is also what he wants us to do: to spend all our time and attention on him. So let's focus most of our time and effort on building and strengthening what we know that needs to be there instead of this fascist. Improving Unity amongst us. And never bowing to any of the global bullies and fascists. People who can't build on their own turf, communicate their points in a civilised manner, but need to get physically violent instead, militarily, economically, institutionally, at the cost of other people's lives - are not on our agenda. // We will not bow to bully threats - not in our small worlds, and not globally either.

Those tariffs against Canada, Mexico along with the rest of the world has all the hallmarks on what Trump really wants to happen in his project 2025 game plan. American population start to feel the consequences and rise up with protests on the streets, this will then give Trump a false flag to put the military on the streets so he can then crown himself dictator of Russia Mk 2. ?

Trump wants all the money to go to his billionaire cronies, we are all left in the dust.

The Drug Fentanyl is coming into the USA because Americans want it to come in .\n. America would be better employed finding the reason for people to need this narcotic .Maybe it's because your . society is so unfair, maybe it's because you have so many people without money, possessions, education and opportunities . Maybe it's because you don't look after your sick and elderly and UNDERPRIVILEGED.. Trump should not blame other country's HE SHOULD ACT LIKE A REAL LEADER . And show leadership AND focused on improving the well-being of all citizens.

What is going to happen with NORAD? I am Canadian and I would have never expected such nonsense coming from an American president! I truly believe that Trump wants a third world war because he thinks it would help his country’s economy. He is definitely the worst president of the USA ever!

Trudeau is a great leader. I’m so sorry for what our loser Trump is doing. I do want Canada to know that Americans are feeling all the bad things that Trump is doing. We cannot let this continue.

The majority of American people (all of the decent americans) dont want this either!! We dont want Trump!! I am so ashamed to be American right now!

I cannot believe this is happening. We do not want this. How dare Trump dismantle our government and our precious alliances. Those that voted for him must not have understood what they were voting for. Trump’s legacy will be one of great shame for his family.

Trump wants the money from the tarrif for himself and musks wants to finance mars

An ex-KGB chief: “In 1987 I worked in… the KGB of the USSR in Moscow… our department recruited the 40 year-old businessman from the USA, Donald Trump, nicknamed “Krasnov”. That’s when Trump starts buying full-page ads attacking NATO. “Putin is doing a great job of outsmarting our country.” He says. Steele report: Russian operatives gathered damaging video evidence of perverted sex acts of presidential candidate in 2013, for blackmail. Mueller said “There were multiple, systematic efforts to interfere in our election.” Trump campaign had more than 140 contacts with Russian operatives, and Trump attempted to obstruct justice at least ten times. Campaign chair lied about then finally admitted to sharing info with Russian spy. Trump, ignoring US intelligence said: “…Putin, he just said it wasn’t Russia. I will say this, I don’t see any reason why it would be.” Secret meeting in Trump Tower with Russkies. Jared attempts to set up secret back channel to Russia in the Russian embassy. Trump to NATO member on prospect of Russian attack on their country “In fact, I would encourage them to do whatever the hell they want.” Trump: “If Putin likes Donald Trump… That’s called an asset…” Yeah, a Russian asset. FBI chief Kash Patel was paid $25,000 to appear in anti-FBI video by Russian backers. “The love in the air, I’ve never seen anything like it” Trump said of January 6 rioters, some of them cop-killers… “Russia if you’re listening…” “I think you will probably be rewarded mightily…” Yes, they own a seditious, treasonous felonious American president. All allegedly…

Good to see Trudeau set the tone cos Mexico needs to set the same tone and the EU should be equally harsh in its terms. Trump is starting a trade war with Allies while cozying up to Putin. Putin must be laughing watching this. How much the world has changed for Putin. Trump is doing everything Putin wants and more.

Best part about this, is Trump cannot shut them up or sue them. He wants to tell the rest of the world how it is. The rest of the world does NOT have to listen. This will hurt USA.

Good for trudeau. Trump is attacking his allies and his people cause he's a coward. He won't attack the real evil cause he's afraid. All he wants to do is make the rich richer. Why can't the people see it. This is how dangerous trump is.

Think about this a minute. Trump invokes a tariff and the stock market drops. The rich buy up all this stock, while a middle class and poor suffer. He’ll get what he wants and pull the tariffs and stocks will rise, making him and his friends richer at the expense of all the hard working Canadians and Americans. Food for thought

Whatever leader Melania thinks is cute Trump hates. If Trudeau was a good-looking woman Trump would want to be best friends

As an American, I'm disgusted with these tariffs. Trump is definitely doing the WRONG thing here. We should be working with Canada and Mexico, not against them. It seems like Trump wants to be Putin's little Bitch.

Now that's a leader! Canada hold strong. Don't bend to that orange moron. I know Canada won't be threatened. Trump thinks if you're decent and polite, you're weak. He will soon find out that he is very mistaken. Pathetic little bullies are historically weak. Your government does not want this but will not be pushed around. Trump is doing this to his own people. Hold tight and let the intelligent Americans rise up. Ireland stands with Canada.

I would say if you stop the flow of drugs into our country like Trump asked you to do and tighten up the border. There would be no problem whatsoever at all, but you say you’re an honest person and you want to get along with everyone well, just stop the drugs from coming in in East Terrace won’t be on there. Trump hasn’t seen any easing up on that border over there and things would be back to normal so it’s it’s sad he had to do that but then your retaliating and what does it do it does nothing yes Canada is gonna suffer and we’re gonna suffer here in the United States all because of your stubbornness and hardness I’ve seen over the years how you text the hell out of your own Canadian citizens and that’s why they don’t like you there, but that has nothing to do with it so

Donald Trump wanted to work with you on trade, but you chose to undermine his foreign policy with russian and ukraine.

We don't want this either Mr Trudeau, but I don't blame you. I'm with you on your side. and hopefully, my people will be on your side since Mr. Trump fooled the American people. We pray for everyone plus the Canadians. God be with you and everyone else.

Don't worry American people they want it this problem they course the trump they want to be America great again and don't worry what is happening any American people you put your tax more than the trump number one is cut out the electric America after trump giving you mines - 200 tax cut if stop to minerals for air force stop to farmers Fortalice you can get another 200 percent tax cut is well dont think what the Americans thinking think first your own people nothing else ???

This is 100% about Trump wanting to appear 'strong'. He is the kind of person who mistakes bullying and cruelty for strength.

Trump wants a crash. It worked out well for the rich in 2008.

Trump's still pissed Melania was all over Trudeau the last time she saw him. She actually wanted his kisses unlike her husbands....... lmao

Liarliarliar trudeau you nevervdid f-al in canada till trump came along.you trudeau are the scumb at the border. Your terrorists are still in canada. And you thief WE WANT OUR MONEY BACK. NOW PLEASE READ TRUMP trudy is as corrupt as they come ?. He has admitted he hates canada and us canadians? He is crying to be cummunist like daddy castro. His momma told us about the real Dada congradulations trudy. Govto cuba

As a Canadian, I got to admit I'm more than a little bit worried that Trump wants to rename us Poland.........\nUgh

Putin gave Trump these orders he wants Canada and America fighting

If our adversaries wanted to engineer an end to US world dominance, this and the dismantling of the administrative state would be the same as Trumps playbook. Steve Bannon has talked about this over the years and Stalin predicted it.

Trump wants to annex Canada.\n\nNEVER going to happen. You will NEVER have our country. We are DONE.

Trudeau was jumping around with the west too much, that's why trump's administration wants to sit him down one place. ???

Here, no more buy from USA, cancelled Netflix, cancelled amazon, cancelled orange, cancelled trip, cancelled most of Google I use MapQuest instead. And I do not want to do anything with USA as long as Trump and Gop are in charge. I hope Canada will take off any tariffs from China because no use to buy things made in China via USA. I will buy directly from now on

Trump proposed reciprocal tariffs. Is it just me or did it sound like Trudeau was the one to impose the same tax amount? Looks like Trudeau has no cards to play. If he really wants to work together then he should take the offer to be our 51st state ?
