Canadians! Arm yourselves now! This administration is capable of absolutely everything. And if Vance takes over, he’s even more dangerous than Trump.

I applaud your Prime Minister Trump and Vance are dilusional

You guys in the US need to understand Vance is as dangerous as Trump. At the 2024 election almost 90 million eligible voters sat on their backsides at home instead of voting. As a Briit and on behalf of the planet, I implore those people to get out next time and vote this MAGA scum out of the WhiteHouse. It's not going to stop when Trump goes. Keep that mind people. PLEASE!

Americans, wake up to yourselves. You all knew Trump and his family are corrupt, you all knew his fellow Americans have found him guilty of federal crimes, including rape, and you all knew his intention to follow the so-called “Project 2025.” You all knew that Vance is a man-child, too. You knew Trump’s family profited from corrupt pork barrel dealings that grew out of his first term as your president. You knew he has a penchant to be an autocrat, like his friend in North Korea and the other ghastly dictator in Russia. You knew his intentions on the world stage. And you knew Trump’s mind has failed. Still, most of you actively chose to reinstall that monster in your highest office. You have replaced the king your forefathers fought, killed and died to remove from ruling the new territories that were to be created to be free of dictatorial power - something your grandparents, parents, brothers, sisters, sons and daughters, and your own good selves have killed and died to protect! Still, most of you chose to put this poor imitation of a man into your presidency. Soon you will look around and realise you are losing serious respect and dignity, allies and meaningful friends. And you will have done this to yourselves.

Trump, Musk and Vance are Russian Assets! They're trying their best to destroy our economy for Putin! Impeach those maggots! Spread this message!

the irony of tariffs is that they devalue the profitability.\nSecond if the POTUS or VP EVER attempt to enter Canada, it is NOT going to go well for the President etc.\nThe Trump and Vance are persona non grata

Trump, Vance and Musk. The 3 stooges, except evil not funny.

Trump is puppet dog of the murder and dictator Putin, and Vance is the dog of Trump. God bless they go to hell.

As an Irishman living in England, I stand with Ukraine and Canada. I wish our own primeminister was as upstanding as Canadas. Trump and his lapdog Vance need to go.

US citizen here retired and living in SE Asia. Trump, Musk, Vance and the enabling cowardly Republicans in congress are traitors destroying the US from within for the benefit of Putin, just as Khrushchev foretold in the 1950s. Trump and his enablers are the real enemy of the US!! Canada is our best friend. Let's hope something can be done to stop this convicted felon and rapist!! Sorry we have such assholes in power in the US!!

truly vice president vance is gas lighter acting like trump watchdog..

Trump is the king of narcissists and a greater threat to world peace than Putin, along with his puppet children, Musk and Vance. It’s not bullying — it’s humiliation! Trump’s approach to deals is simple: “Thank you, if you don’t want to deal with us, we’ll take it anyway.” All he wants is the rare earth to develop quantum Computers,he will then lever that power to manipulate, unfortunately most of it is towards the Russian boarder! ?

The entire world hate America because of Trump and childless cat men JD Vance

Trudeau has shown he will stand up to bully boys,trump and Vance are not in his league MCGA

Go Canada! If Trump, Vance & Musk (the 3 Stooges) think they are invincible watch the World sink the U.S! Feel sorry for the ones in the U.S who now despise their Communist leader ?!

Trump & vance are just lose cannons and a pair of total twats people of the us stop buying trumps wealthy freinds stuff then that will turn the tideback in your favour the people of scotlands with you canada and your people stay strong ?

Trump and Vance are uneducable.

from phillipines, trump nds head check n vance n elon

Eff off trump and Vance. ??

Trump is deliberately helping the Enemy. Dropping out internet security and sabcyions against Russia? We re droppnng our gaurd ans wekeimh our alliws is a huhe threat to iur National security. We re safe. After attacing our allies, i wouldnt be surprised if Trump n Vance gets asainated. \n.

Trump Jd Vance Musk Prendono ordini dal Cremlino ???? Americani RIBELLATEVI. Cacciateli via vi stanno UMILIANDO vi hanno TRADITO. ????

I’m a dual citizen of the USA and the UK and have been so disgusted by Trump, he projects evil, he’s smarmy and egotistical. I just don’t understand how many of my American friends act like he’s right up there with God, I just can’t fathom their thinking. It’s all about taking ownership of anything he wants and he bullies until he gets what he wants. I’m sick of people saying Pres Zelenskyy needs to apology to Trump, Zelenskyy did nothing wrong, he was calm and polite. Vance and Trump immediately went in on the attack, both bullies! Then to moan about Zelenskyy offending the Oval Office by not wearing a suit. Have they looked at Musk lately? Don’t know what he’s wearing but it ain’t no suit. During war times leaders often wear combat clothes to show they are with their country and soldiers. I must say I wouldn’t be upset if anyone popped him off! He does need to go.

oh boy! you think us Americans are worried About Canada. Nah! I don't think so. Say what you like, AMERICA FIRST, and GO TRUMP AND JD VANCE, stop crying Canadians and the democratic party's

As long as this trio (trump, Vance, Musk) is in command we can expect anything ?

Remove Trump! Remove Vance! Remove Musk! Get rid of them!\n\nAmerica belongs to we the people! \n\nDiaper Trump does NOT OWN AMERICA. \n\nTrump is a dictator want to be tyrant who loves Putin. Trump is the biggest liar anybody has ever seen!\nTrump is hurting America! Trump cares only about himself and his minions who do what they are told. \nTrump lies are all part of his propaganda so he can become a dictator! \n\nWe need to remove him from the Oval Office and lock him up behind bars!

If it sounds good to your ears, Trump will spit out without worrying about consequences with Trump style, Russian sleeper cell agent NOW just wake up JUST LIKE Dracula and wracking has already started by wracking our federal government with all the lies and exaggerations making mountain out of molehills! As usual Trump's style to get your attention BY making mountains out of molehills all the small issues that can be resolved. I hereby declare ENTIRE Americans, except Russian Agent Trump's accomplice, young immature, arrogant, charlatan young JUST 40-year-old young pnk JD Vance and vast majority of Republican Party members. Henceforth, be aware that Russian agent Trump is about wracking the US and free world order, he should be removed when the Democrat Party wins both House and Senate! US

I stand with Canada...Trump and JD Vance are disasters and will always be?????

As a Frenchman, I can’t find the first bit of explanation, nor logic, in Trump’s strategy - if we can even call it strategy. The US will be the biggest loser in this situation, but Trump and his mini-Trump (Vance) will eventually find a way to explain that the US misery is the product of malign states. With Trump at the top, the US is going to lose its mind once and for all. I can’t believe that I once seriously thought about becoming an American citizen… the American dream is now COMPLETELY dead.

Pestilence Trump and Shady Vance are DETERMINED to create a world where America is hated as much around the world as the Russian and Chinese governments. The Blight House is now full to the top of the cesspool with Putin Quislings. Good one, 'Mericuh!

I’m so sick of my country right now.. more so the citizens who are ignoring things like this and believe any lie Trump, Vance, or Elon says

Trump is an absolute clown. Same with Vance.

Trumps hitting Canada with tariffs because Melania was going Gaga over Trudeau. What a spiteful disgusting excuse for a human being let alone president. Him and his best girlfriend eyeliner Vance.

As a Mexican, I truly respect and admire Mr. Justin Trudeau, a true leader while inmature Trump is leading the US to it's doom... lets see how this goes, Trump now has enemies all over the world, I'm so sorry for the fellow American citizens that will suffer for voting again for this hillbilly Clown and hillbilly JD Vance!

What are the tariffs about? Really!!! You can't figure it out? Let me spelt out in simple syllables. Donald Dump is ONLY interested in HIS own power and wealth. No other single person or group has any importance to Dump. That includes the economy, the federal government, and individuals like Musk and Vance. Look out Musk and Vance, at his next funky, wavy, wobbly brain fart Donnie Dump might throw you under the bus, like he has done for millions of Americans who have lost their jobs and lost the benefits they deserve and some must have to continue living.\nDump Trump!!

He spoke eloquently using FACTS not LIES like Donald Trump. He didn’t sugar coat anything. He spoke directly to Donald. \n\nTRUMP has been making DUMB DECISIONS over and over. THIS TIME is being controlled and e has shown to the world thatHE IS THE PUPPET of a ?BILLIONAIRE IMMIGRANT WHOSE GOAL IS TO CONVERT THE US TO A COMMUNIST COUNTRY imitating HITLER. \n\nDonald LIED to VOTERS promising to reduce inflation and increase jobs. Donald please STOP BEING PUPPET OF ELON, VANCE. And all others. \n\nTHIS IS NOT HOW TO MAKE THE US GREAT AGAIN… YOU ARE MAKING IT THE WORST and destroying everything great former leaders worked hard to build. \n\nYOUR EGO is making you blind. \nYOU LIED using God’s name in vain to obtain votes. \n\nWORST ADMINISTRATION IN HISTORY\n\nGod sees everything.

People from the USA will pay the price for all this but Trump doesn't care because he considers them as slaves to him and his rich friends. As for Vance and his comment about war... Hey Vancy boy...wnaan talk about war? Really? USA got his arse kicked in Vietnam, Modagishu, Irak and Afghanistan. The only war they had some success with was against the weak Germans during WWII and they would have never been able to do it without the Russians. And let's not forget that they almost got defeated a few days after D-Day. This, because of..... bogs! So get here Vancy boy and you'll see what Canadians are capable of. Besides that, you need us more than we need you and you automobile's economy (among many others) is going to crash just because of you and Trump. No more electricity for you, no no more gas, no more oil, no more lumber, no more aluminum, no more alcohol sales and the worst part...no more maple syrup! Besides that, almost everything sold by the USA is coming from China, so why bother buying from the USA when we can buy the same for cheaper?

Trump knows what is going on. Trump is beholden to Putin because Putin has a secret on Trump and Trump is going to do everything Putin says do. He will jump, run, kiss N. Korea's ass. Trump is going to do everything Putin says do to make sure Putin keeps Trump’s secret secret. Trump must have done something over in Russia and Putin got him on video tape. It must be a doozie, something that Trump shouldn't have been doing, and Putin's got Trump by the balls. Trump is going to jump, lie, cheat, and do tariffs (as a smokescreen) for his treachery with Putin. This is why he said we won't have to ever vote again. He's planning to pull a 'Hitler-move'! Trump and Musk are weakening America. Trump, Vance and Musk are working to make all our allies our enemies to help Putin and N. Korea be able to take over America, then Trump thinks they'll let him be our King. He's so stupid. Putin and N. Korea are crazy but they will not let Trump be King. They want America for themselves. Wake up America! Trump is selling out America! He's trying to put us into WW III, and make sure we do not have any allies, and if you don't see the writing on the wall, y'all need to go back to school. Pay attention to history. Poor, dumb-ass Republicans. They're being used.

Let's not forget that the USA has only ever won one war on its own. The American Civil War! WW1 and 2 were a global allied effort, Korea a stalemate, beaten pants down in Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan a shambles. Their recent treatment of President Zolenski was utterly shameful. Trump doesn't seem to understand that America will need all the friends that it can muster in the coming decade. The USA will be very alone in a war against China if they have isolated and belittled their strongest and best allies. Vance, should just keep his mouth shut, because every time he opens it he shames America. While every time Trump his mouth, Putin comes out.

Dictatorship is coming to the USA. Vance is a real fascist. Everyone is applauding Trump like in the Third Reich or North Korea. Save America, guys, before it's too late.

Sorry, Trump does not care of past allies he is taking the US into a dictatorship. Just observing from Downunder the past few days shows clearly the tyrrany of authoritarianism as Trump and the Maga cult are destroying Democracy and the US Constitution. Only Americans can stop this trajectory to save themselves and everyone from Putin. They Trump Musk Vance and Maga are a national and international disgrace and a threat to the world… please all stop this tragedy by a convicted felon and insurrectionist. Listen to Bernie Sanders.

It's about power but the people who voted Trump and Vance in can very easily taken back and impeeched

This is the fault of all the Americans who voted for Trump and his b!$*h Vance?

Hopefully, Trump gets kicked out...but then we would get Vance. Another idiot.

Trump and vance needs to open their eyes, fentenyal is being made all over the united states in pverty xstricken areas, they cook it in tge apartments of new york and drive to different states to sell it. Trump is an idiot

I feel sorry for al the employees and families in America and around the world that are going to lose jobs.. Trump Vance Rubio Musk spoilt brats won't care sitting back in thier multi million dollar houses and mansions..

Canada.....I'd love to trade for Trudeau! America will give you Trump, Vance, Rubio, Cruz, Johnson and RFK Jr. Wouldn't want to do that to a friend though.

It's Trump and Elon and Vance not the United States of America its just trump u need too speak to because it's trump n its ??

If we are going to be an authoritarian, antidemocratic, fascist dictatorship, we have to shed our old friends who would get all judgy about the the human rights abuses. So, step one, destroy relationships with friends. Step two, buddy up to Putin and other dictatorships who will be glad to trade and associate with us even if we do run concentration camps or whatever.\nOr Trump is sucking Putin's butt again for mysterious reasons. He likes it so much, like a drug addict, he is willing to lose everything . If it were just a matter of his individual tastes, I don't get it, but none of my business. Except by dragging the whole country down for his kink, it is out business. So, I think we should cut Trump lose to go to Russia and run around on his knees chasing Putin as much as he likes. Meanwhile, we need a president and I can only say F-no to Vance and I don't know how many other dictator butt goblins in the line of succession, so, since Trudeau is going to be looking for work, lets make and exception and hire him for president. I'd much rather have one with a pro-Canada bias than one one who seems to think he is Putin's Elon Musk.

Elon dumb azz musk is in control of trump, not our president, zelensky doesn't have to apologize he did nothing wrong, Vance needs to apologize to zelensky ASAP

CNN, why don’t you say openly that trump is an uneducated fool who does not know what he doing as president or how this world functions. And equally uneducated fools like Vance and Musk are not knowing how a country work let alone a big country like USA.
