Just watch Trump will be blaming Biden for all this because Trump has no leadership no plan but to make rich people, richer! Do you maga supporters realize what you've done now. And how bad things are about to become in our country. I didn't vote for Trump but I'm going to have to suffer because of dumb idiot suckers like you. Thanks Maga for ruining my life because of your stupidity! ✌️

I think Trump is taking orders from Putin because this behavior is what will destroy America and that is what Putin wants. Putin told him to stand up and be a man and make them obey you. This is what dumb Trump is listening to and doing

I'm ready to pull together with other Canadians! - Donald Trump is of course not a smart man but that would be dumb to say if you are a politician trying to contain a tarrif war. - (OMG, Wolf Blitzer grew up in Buffalo NY and spent summers at Crystal Beach. My oh my. He probably loved Irv Weinstein. Hope he liked watching Billy Van... if he watched CHCH TV back then.)

All these ignorant trump supporters in the comments ? how dumb are you guys

America ?? have a dumb president, he is the orange man called Trump ?

only if dumb trump can speak intelligently like this true leader from Canada. trump speak at grade school level. I am American and very embarrassed for our government.

Trump wants America to look dumb in the eyes of the world, smh.

Stop the Cuba Boycott, Boycott Canada. Canada, You have nothing the US needs! Pound Sand. Trudeau you are not worthy to stand in Trumps shadow. If the Tariffs are a dumb thing to do why are you so upset? F the French Canadians and the French in general. Have a good day.

I like he used the word dumb, maybe trump can understand that. US president is not so big in using deep words

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.

Someone had to tell him straight ‘ Trump u dumb F*ck’ ? \nraising unrealistic tariffs

only if dumb trump can speak intelligently like this true leader from Canada. trump speak at grade school level. I am American and very embarrassed for our government.

F Trump, he’s actually a dumb guy

I've always said, ole trump dumb as a stump. him and putrid, i mean putin are thick as thieves, and I don't trust the pair of them. something should be done about them both.

He spoke like a true leader. Trump is just dumb, nothing can change that. Vance is also the other dummy and ass kisser.

It's just Trump. One dumb man who, for some dumb reason, speaks and represents a lot of people under the name of the country they live in. Maybe someone will figure out that someone can only make so many bad decisions before they remove that person from making more bad decisions. We have the village idiot in charge of things. Most[people in America like you and other leaders more than the person who is pretending to lead here. He's the fool of fools. You don't have to call him a smart guy just to make him feel good, he just does dumb things all the time. Either way, it's a fun show, I only hope the missiles start to fly and we all destroy ourselves. \n \nHenry Limpet: Doesn't it kind of give you a thrill of hope, George? \nGeorge Stickel: Hope for what, Henry? \nHenry Limpet: With the war in Europe and new weapons being invented all the time, why, well what if men were actually foolish enough to destroy themselves completely? Then, you see, the fish in the ocean would develop into a new race of men and - well, this time they might turn out better, you see? \n \nOne can only hope.

That's a lie Trudeau. Donald Trump is a dumb-ass fail fake convicted felon businessman.

Prime Minister Trudeau as an American I stand with you! Have to disagree with you about trump, he’s has dumb as a rock!!!

Who was dumb enough to vote trump, who couldn’t see the wrecking ball he is, who couldn’t see he is unfit for the job, most of the US that’s who.

Trump is a stupid dumb b…ard, who gains zero respect from anyone, anywhere. The USA is a laughing stock now. I love living in the United Kingdom.

Trudeau calling President Trump “Donald” and then calling his move. “Dumb” should go over really well. ???

I'm Brazilian, and it legit makes me so sad to see the Canadians being left this way by Trump... it's just a dumb situation, it's a selfish move made by him, and that sure affects Canada a lot, and that's why my family and I stopped buying American products. Stay safe and strong, canucks.\n❤

Trump is DUMB, period. Trudeaus speech is excellent, no prompter and speech flows freely. Concise and to the point.

Level-headed, measured, amicable, educated, a real leader and statesman. Talking to an orange baffoon. I only disgree with Trudeau in one thing. Trump does dumb things cause he is actually dumb. And seeing that he is insulting people and allies left and right I personally would love for other leaders inventing fitting names for him paying him back in kind. Someone came up with Mango Mussolini, I had until now favored Orange Utan, but the Mango version is appealing. And lets face it, Trump's cabinet of circus freaks also literally begs to be ridiculed.

Trump knows its a dumb thing to do. He planning to break us all into the poor and weak. He wants to be Queen to King Putin

Dumb stupid trade war. Never forget, Trump started it! Regardless of what maga will say in the next few weeks. ?

That is because YOU americans are so dumb electing a very stupid and evil Donald Trump. Americans, remove Trump, impeach this lunatic now.

Trump is gonna hate this. All the truth thrown in his face? Being called dumb? Oof, the ketchup will be all over the walls!

I honestly think Trump doesn’t know how tariffs work. His acolytes are too scared to tell him he’s got it wrong saying the exporting countries pay the tariffs, he said it time & again in the campaign & his dumb as a rock MAGA supporters actually beleived him. The media were absolutely derelict in not pushing back on his claims they just kept covering him saying it, & here we are.

Drumpf a smart guy? Any dumb bamboon is smarter than him! Stopping the a** kissing! Trump will just screws you more when he thinks you are weak

TRUMP\nTHE\nLIER THIEF MURDER\nRAPE. \nTHE\nPEOPLES\nAND THEY VOTED FOR. ORANGE ? LUCIFER\nTHE DUMB MAN\n?????????❤❤❤?❤?

Trump and his entire baboon administration is a joke and Trump only got elected because promised to lower prices on day 1 and he Has done EVERYTHING except that. TRUMP IS NOT MY PRESIDENT! He is a Complete dumb ass who is hurting our country's place in the world's eyes. Not to mention he is only trying to put as much money in his and his Cronies pockets he is taking food off of the middle classes tables and doing his best to erraticate the middle class completely.. We can't stand for this.

Sorry but I disagree with Trudeau. The word Smart is never associated with Trump. Only words like stupid, dumb, bully, racist and narcissistic described him.

Saying to Trump that it was a dumb thing to do, is really a dumb thing to have said Justin. We didn't start the fire, but that was a heavy match you just struck.

Great speech from Trudeau, he is on his way out as prime minister and has been unpopular but no doubt he has had his finest moments lately. I wish Canada and a number of US states and sane US citizens could form their own nation or even a union at least. We'd be better off, anything is better than now. Americans will get hit hard by this too, so dumb. Trump is a fascist and brainwashed a cult called MAGA.

The dumb ass fact Trump TRULY believes Elon can save the U.S.A is the VERY REASON we WILL need SAVING! ???‍♀️ ALL BECAUSE CERTAIN ONES DIDN’T WANT TO SEE A BLACK WOMAN GENUINELY TRY WITH ALL HER MITE TO MAKE THINGS BETTER UNSELFISHLY! ?

I'm American and I stand with canada...dumbnald trump is dumb

I can't believe the people of the USA really elected him. Come on, you know Trump plays very dirty--I refuse to believe that the majority of voters are this brain dead. If our nation is this stupid then we deserve everything that is coming to us. PS: Trudeau, it's way too nice to tell Trump he's a smart guy--he's evil, not at all intelligent. Can we please stop conflating scheming, bullying and manipulation with intelligence---any dumb ass can scheme, bully and manipulate (the prisons are full with this kind of human being), but you actually have to be intelligent to collaborate, listen and manage.

European here (Swedish/Germn born in Austria) Cudos to Canada! Even if Trump should row back Canada will not forget this and has once and for all realized that their dependance on the US is not sain. So this was really dumb - Canada is already negotiating with other markets, amongst others Europe. And on the long run this will be worse for the US than for Canada!

What I dont get is, why do Canada put up tarifs too??????? This will make life in Canada more expensive. I dont get it..... as he says, there are no winnes in a tarif war. So why do the same shit as Trump does? Just let the US pay 25% more... why should you pay more in Canada??? I dont get it.... this makes you just as dumb as Trump.

It's remarkable how Trudeau dumbed down his vocabulary and sentence structure, when he addressed Trump directly. ?

Ok wow i usually don't get mad about this stuff but damn if our President isn't a total dumb@ss. To do this to Canada our friend and partner and to pull this crap. WOW You suck Trump.

Calling Donald Trump his action Dumb is priceless. We all here hé called Biden stipid in the last meating with Selensky

Honestly I like Trump because he is anti woke but his economic policies are downright dumb…

DUMB TRUMP!!!

7:15 He’s funny how he dumbs down the language when addressing Trump directly ? How can you vote for that guy a second time…I am still in shock

Makes me so sad that a vocal minority like trump pushed Trudeau out of Canada. He is exactly who we need right now and he's on his way out ?. No hate to the USA but you guys have gotta tell him to stop, why would we fight? Dumb

What are great speech! i wish we have leader like Trudeau, not wacky,crazy and dumb as Trump.

what I am confused the most, beyond how dumb the tariff is, is why Trump needs a fentanyl pretext. it's so fake, and Trump is so shameless anyway. why even bother?

Why do politicians have to be on their way out the door before they say exactly how shitty trump and his trumpettes are!?!?! \n\n\nOne exception. Trump is not smart. He's clever. He's crafty. But he's also the most ignorant humanoid on the planet. Just stone cold dumb.
