Canada had a 20% tariff already imposed before trump for a very long time, we just matched it. Now hes upset, and throwing a fit bc we're not going to be sending subsides on top of the tariff. He will not be able to sustain this tantrum. Just this speech alone is so fake and scripted. Hes a puppet.

Indian government warned about criminals coming to canada and requested to send them back so they can be prosecuted in india but canada government refused.

Focusing too much on being anti-Trump is a strategic mistake for the Democrats. In order to win, you have to convince the average non-partisan person that you are seeking their best interest. Moral high grounding does not work. The current majority sentiment of the US population is that they want the government to prioritize the interest of the US first and foremost. Whether or not Trump is a bully to other countries when he tries to prioritize that interest is irrelevant to them.
Critiques Democratic strategy and argues that prioritizing national interest over moral positioning is more effective politically.

I could be for sanctuary cities if they would guarantee that all the illegals they provide sanctuary for would never leave their city. Cool. Share your housing or build them new housing.

This isn’t government failure — it’s corporate influence. Companies demand cheap labor. Government delivers people. Media sells morality. Citizens fight each other online.
