The educated and thinking American people ( who are the majority of voters and unfortunately 1/3 did not vote) know that Donald Trump has lied to us. We understand that Canada has no fault and no role in contriving this trade war. We also know that the Fentanyl problem has little or nothing to do with Canada and that the majority of Fentanyl is brought into the USA by US citizens. Most American citizens do not want this. Donald Trump and is an opportunist. He does not care about the American people . He cares about himself and his money.
Detailed critique of Trump's trade war policies and fentanyl claims, combined with moral arguments about fairness and truth.

Trudeau is an idiot and put us in a vulnerable position via his policies and snarky rhetoric toward Donald Trump over the last decade. He's a child and can't be gone soon enough.

In one question Daniel Smith wants foreign workers who are the poorest payed people, where the conservatives are in great demand for foreign workers, to pay for their own health care. It is a pettiness too petty, that disqualifies Ms. Smith from dealing with the public. Definitely remove that question from your to-kill list, babe. It will get you in trouble, babe.
You have to pay me to leave you, babe. Apparently Conservatives wish to create a caste where it's the poorest who pay and are despised. Don't be hypocrites. Don't become a danger or cause danger through your words and actions. You have crossed that line, Daniel Smith -- You put a spotlight on minorities and they get attacked more often by emboldened bigots. Resign. You are a danger to your target and anybody else around them. Do not go after the poor my dear Hubris for Nemesis will invite herself to come dine with you if you do.
Critiques a politician's policy position on foreign workers' healthcare while making moral arguments about hypocrisy and calling for resignation.

Trump is a sick man I think. He has a protectionist mind. And he loved to hear from his aides who don't have the right mind.

It isn't about drugs, it is the fat fraudster throwing his 200kg around. He is taking weight loss drugs made in the UK, perhaps he should tariff those by several thousand percent? He doesn't understand …
It isn't about drugs, it is the fat fraudster throwing his 200kg around. He is taking weight loss drugs made in the UK, perhaps he should tariff those by several thousand percent? He doesn't understand a trade deficit, he doesn't understand tariffs, in fact he doesn't understand very much that isn't grifting and lying. The world has to come together and cut the US out so Trump and his boss Putin can cuddle up. The US can come back when it has jailed the fat fraudster and decided that criminals should not be allowed in the WH.
Critiques Trump's understanding of trade policy and tariffs while making moral arguments about criminal behavior in office and international cooperation.
