Let me correct Trudeau actions. Trump isn't a SMART person and that was evident at every meetings with others president

Putin is getting exactly what he told the moron-in-chief to do and as soon as trump manages to alienate the rest of the civilised world he will drop the sanctions with Russia and make personal business deals with them.\nThis isn't about America - this is about trump incorporated and every stupid decision he makes will be preceded by market trades by third parties that will be hard to trace back to people in his administration.\nHe's stealing from MAGA and they're applauding him.\nAlso, trump is not smart - he's a crook, and dumb as a fencepost.

Trump isn't a very smart guy. He's an idiot.\nThis American stands with Canada!

Trump has money. None of this is going to bother him at all.\nHe just wants to bully others, to try and look strong, and menacing.\n\nHe isn't smart enough to realize it just makes him look petty and dumb.

Trump isn't smart. He's cunning. Big difference.

Trump is for Putin and isn’t smart

Trump isn’t smart! He’s a shady narcissist !! He’s trying to destroy America from within. Right wing propaganda. Siding with RUSSIA, fighting with our countries near us. Shame full

No Trump isn’t a smart guy . He’s dumb !

Trump isn't even close to being smart. He's just a self-centered bully with a lot of resources, allowing him to manipulate people throughout his entire life.

He was half wrong with his statement about Trump. He isn't a smart man either. He's a spoiled child that was given his empire. He's never worked a day in his life.

Trump isn’t a smart man. But he is a man baby who loves to be told he’s a smart man, which is why other leaders do it. \n\nI do wonder what the end game is. Trump wants to make Canada the 51st state (to get the natural resources and despoil the country by drilling for oil). Does he really imagine that this is going to endear Canadians to America. Is he planning to deteriorate the relationship so that eventually he invades Canada? Because the tariffs make absolutely no sense for the reasons Trump has given.

Sorry, Justin, the thing is that Trump isn't smart. He is a megalomaniac narcissistic pig.

U.S. here....first, I and most Americans stand with Canada and Ukraine. Second, yes tRUMP made a dumb mistake. But everyone must realize that he really isn't very smart. His own cabinet members from his first term have said so. He doesn't understand things and he doesn't read. I feel pretty sure that his daddy paid for him to get into business school and paid for his degree, just as he paid a doctor to say he had bone spurs. He just isn't very bright. I think his business failings show the same thing. Whatever Canada and Mexico feel they have to do to stand up to this dictator wanna-be, so be it. I hope the MAGAt supporters here get a hard wake up call....I can't have sympathy for them.

Trump isn't smart. 71 IQ, maybe he's an idiot

Why don’t Canada that over the United State and the president of Canada replace Grifters Donald Trump. One thing I disagree with his messages is Trump isn’t smart. He has Elon Musk running America and he’s signing coloring books.

Trump isn't a smart guy

Trudeau is wrong. Trump isn't a smart guy. He's got a criminal's cunning. He knows how to shake down a sucker. But he is dismally stupid and ignorant and a constant liar. He is undoubtedly allying himself with Putin and other criminal dictators. BLOTUS: Biggest Liar Of The United States. Imbecile-In-Chief. And a traitor to the western world.

Why isn't Canada doing anything to stop illicit drugs in their Country. That's what this is about. Trump is America First and I won't apologize for that. \nTrudeau is talking like he has some kind of power over the U.S. Not very smart Canada will go broke if they don't comply with Trump's reques to shut down drug trafficking in Canada that comes across our border. \nFentanyl is still detected in an overwhelming majority of illicit drug deaths in Canada, according to PHAC, but the unpredictability and potency of other substances mixed in with the fentanyl are making the supply more dangerous. \nMexican cartels are operating fentanyl and nitazene synthesis labs in Canada. \nA recent study recognized Canada’s heightened domestic production of fentanyl, and its growing footprint within international narcotics distribution. \nCanada-based drug trafficking organizations maintain robust “super labs,” mostly in rural and dense areas in western Canada, some of which can produce 44 to 66 pounds of fentanyl weekly.

Imagine once being the country that so many allies and neighbors sought refuge in—only to become this. Damn. I wish we had a leader who could articulate himself this well or actually cared about humanity. Those of you who voted for this will soon see and feel the consequences of your actions. The truth is, Trump isn’t smart— and unfortunately, neither are most Americans.

tRump isn't a smart guy, he is a narcissistic disgusting excuse for a human. He make me sick ?.

Donald Trump isn't a smart guy. He is a treacherous traitor and needs to be impeached and then removed

Trump just pissing off everyone in the world; including his own citizens. Trump does what he wants. I would say he isn't a smart man.\n\nAs a Canadian, I still love my American neighbours but Donald can pump sand ??

Trump isn't smart. He is a criminal. Thanks for stroking Trumps ego. Can you guys arrest our President because no one has ball over here to do it? He's broken our US Constitution.

Trump wants the World to collapse so his billionaires and america can buy up the stock market and dominate the World. It’s not trade blocks, it’s Dictator blocks. If that doesn’t work he’ll invade Canada and Mexico most likely and just take it. At this point, I hope America implodes. Either way it’s a mass suicide. Trump isn’t a smart man, he’s an evil man. And people who persist in making excuses for this creature are just traitors, the lowest of the low, stupid, greedy war mongers.

We know that our president is a frigging idiot, but the fact he *noticeably* drops his language grade level when “talking directly to” Trump and says “we’ve done *big things*” twice and calls him a “very smart guy” and pulls it into a schoolyard metaphor of “two friends fighting.”\n\nI couldn’t wrap my head around how we got saddled with this joke of a human in 2016. \nCouldn’t fathom how it was close in 2020.\nWant to vomit every day that we allowed this deep, unchecked harm to befall us, our allies, and the entire world. \n\nI keep wanting to just wake up.\nI feel so insane that we seem to have literally no power to stop this, and that the *entirety* of the GOP is completely fine with this. They have the power, but truly with small margins. But they’re just … all complicit in this.\n\nAnd even NOW, when it’s clearly going to fuck the economy and markets in ways that hurt actual corporations (who truly run it all now, from all sides of the political aisle except what seems like 5 social Dems/independents federally), even THE MONEY isn’t talking.

Trump isn’t a “smart guy”. He’s president because the average US voter is very, very stupid.

This isn't about fentanyl or the borders it's about Trumps desire to make money off tariffs so he can pay for tax cuts to his billionaire ass kissers while the first lady Musk is stealing money from government offices. Trump is not a smart man. Recently he said this was a bad agreement and who the hell signed this speaking about the last trade agreement with Canada and Mexico. Well it was you Dumb Donald. Nothing more than a child bully.\n This idiot thinks Zelensky is a dictator but refuses to call Putin a dictator WTF . He says Ukraine started the war, what a retarded scumbag. Good luck the next 4 years UST, United States of Trump.

Got to love how Justin has to talk to Trump. Like a kid. We have done big things and you're a smart boy. Got to praise the cult leader to make him happy. I truly wish Justin was our president. What a great person and he speaks clearly and is smart. He isn't annoying or an idiot like trump. We truly live in the stupid timeline. Canada is going to get their items from Europe and Asia and South America. So congratulations America we are about to lose so much. Trump is making us weaker.

Trump isn't smart ? \nHe's a fool!!! Real Americans stand behind Canada and Mexico ?

do not praise trump in any way. he isn't smart and above all he is not trustworthy

Trump isn’t even close to being smart. He’s a Russian puppet

Lol\nI love that Trudeau has to call Trump smart but this particular action stupid.\nIn the meantime, he knows just as well as everybody that Trump is an idiot. Little Donald isn‘t smart, Little Donald is a moron.

Not a smart move by Canada and Mexico, Trump is holding all the cards, he prepared for this long ago, the plan is huge, I assume US Is just trying to force Canada to be the 51th state or go bankrupt which isn't a bad thing after all but, we will see if this if this is going to be a huge mess* or a huge succes

The 1.6 billion dollars Trudeau said he “pledged” to border security is to be spread out over 6 years! Which basically at this point none of it has beeen spent. It is a laughable amount to try to appease trumps request and trump is smart enough to read the fine print in the border security bill o know that Trudeau isn’t taking border security seriously.
