Trump is too stupid to understand that bi-lateral trade imbalances will always balance muilti-laterly when Canada buys from a third country that then buys from the US. Stupid, stupid and stupid all the time due to economic ignorance..

He should call Trump that he is an Idiot and Stupid for doing this!

Are you people stupid. Canada will fail in 12 months. Hence the reason he said they can send us into economic ruin.. when the hell is the last time you bought a product from Canada? exactly

So if you're that stupid to pick a fight with America wants to become Americans are you stupid

…and we consumers pay the higher prices. Why don’t these higher prices go exclusively to politicians?!? They are the ones fighting like little girls and they should be the ones to pay for their stupid arguments. I thought politicians were meant to represent the people. This is no longer the case

We be aight remember when we suffer Canadian will starve for sure this fool is disgustingly stupid and dumb he is talking about dictatorship he forgot what he did few years back to the agricultural sector for protesting/going on strike he been the almighty Canadian aka the big honcho he decides to punished everyone frozen ? all their assets including bank accounts not counting he took Canadian second amendment ?

Trudeau is stupid, he doesnot know what Trump wants. Trump want manufacture moves to United States from Canada and Mexico.

As an American I support you Canada, Captain Chaos is a Putin loving narcissist that probably cheated to win election, and did not win popular vote, only electral vote at best. Only 1/2 Americans voted and less than 1/2 of them voted for the felon. He is working on changing America to a dictator led government. I pray Americans will be able to unite and stop this stupidity!

Make what ever the hell you stupid liberals do to us Canadian’s, make that make sense. More like you are lying to us, you are a the DICTATOR.

I've been saying since Trump said that he's going to put tarrifs on Canada, that's going to hurt the US in the economy and jobs and well here we are..\n\nAnd to think that some people think Trump is doing a great job with all this, is mind boggling.. but I guess they can't see through his lies and stupidity.

Trudeau is making it even harder on Canada, not that he cared about canadians anyways. Like are you stupid canadians?, I think so. Sincerely from the USA

“There are no winners in a trade war, so we are going to immediately engage in a trade war.” No one even acknowledges Trump’s justification for retaliatory tariffs be it wrong or stupid or whatever. Everyone just acts like he decided to do it out of the blue.

Got to make these Trump voters hurt, so they understand how stupid this is.

Speaking truth to stupidity

You know you done something really wrong when you piss off the Canadians. I am glad they are standing up for themselves and not putting up with Trump's stupidity.

Go for it, Canada! \nThe trade war trump started is stupid, and we the PEOPLE of USA do NOT support this stupid, costly trade war.

Nice to see a grown up in a seat of power in North America. Maga are just stupid gullible creatures.

What did you do to the farmers?And the truckers seized farmer's money for helping truckers not freezing in there trucks, because of your rules and stupidity. Just seize people's money .Not even Puten from Russia would do that. Not everybody took the vaccine.And you know what?We're still alive and the ones that did a lot of dying , so all this was bullshit.

Respectfully, Trump is &ucking stupid

The US just destroyed all their trade partnerships, while their former partners each lost just one partner. How stupid is that?!

It's absolutely unfathomable that things have been allowed to escalate to this point. It is obvious that our country is being taken over by Russian agents in the WH. How else can you be so tone deaf to what this stupid tarrif position is going to do to our economy, unemployment people that are not wealthy. These rich people absolutely do not care about us regular people. Our forefathers would be livid to see what has become of our country. MAGAs have been duped with so many lies and exaggerations that have been generated by Russia into the social media consciousness that they have paved the way for a total take over designated to ruin our country. It's happening, and people are so duped ...... it's like a bad movie.

It's not a tariffs war you Canadian Trudeau idiot... Donald Trump put a tariffs on you because Cartel's dnt Cross drugs through the border if you dnt do you side of the bargain to keep fentanyl by crossing from your side of the country.. helloooo how stupid can y'all be it's not a tariffs war get that straight.

I'm American and I'm proud of Canadians for standing up to my stupid ass government. My government doesn't speak for me. I suppose no countries government actually speaks for it's citizens.

Stupid is as stupid does

Mr,Justin First U have Leran how to RESPEKT Other Country President U And Mr, Zelenzky too. Leran , U can‘t Win Against Mr, President Donald Trump U Think Front of Camera Give. Voice Cut Stupid And Useless , Canadian people they Told GO HOME We Tell To??

Do what you have to do Canada I'm American mango Mussolini is just stupid!!\n\nHe's a greedy evil racist narcissistic misogynist and blatant liar. Really all the tariffs are is a poor person's text is meant to hurt confused ? and there's no point in that? \n\nFentanyl is no more dangerous or available than any other drug that has ravaged America in the world. If the people don't take it there is no problem no one is forced. Go Canada go God bless.

Well Trudeau. Your 10 wasted years of blowing money and stupid policies have big part in this happening. Nobody around the world likes you.

Trump is so old and stupid He doesn't care about us Americans That Felon and Grapist should be in Prison. What a evil person

America, look what you have done. Those who voted for this demon did this. You were told this monster would destroy America. \nCanada is wonderful place with an intelligent leader. \nTrump is stupid, a wanna be Putin

Stupidity is more dangerous than evil. Look at history. A country that loses a war does not lose because it is less evil but because its people elected a foolish leader, and they have paid the price in blood. America will pay the price—not with Trump's blood, but with the sweat and toil of ordinary citizens.

Donald Trump clames he is a business man ,but his businesses always seem to fail.Yet he comes out Scott free.Perhsps this is why he does not understand how mutually beneficial trade is.Trade barriers have not worked in the past.But everyone else is stupid for not applying them,apparently.

Mr Trudeau, most Americans are with you 100%. We don’t want this, it’s ridiculous. Please know this Trump action is not the will of the American people. He acts alone and with stupidity that cannot be explained. We love Canada, Mexico, Europe, and all our allies. I feel we are being held hostage by one man and his sycophant cult. Please help us. ?

Your stupid ?? president is a Russian asset!

As an American I can say with a full heart that I stand with Canada, Mexico and Ukraine. Donald Trump is a pig and the majority of the American people are complete and utter assholes for electing this deranged demagogue piece of shit. To the world at large, I'm deeply sorry for the stupidity of my people.

The Orange lunatic is the master of falsehood! He will made up all kinds of allegation on those he is taking revenge on those who laugh at him for his stupidity during his first term! He doesn't care if any of his action will hurt Americans, they are the last thing in his mind (except those oligarchs who are supporting him)! The next most troubling reason for his action is because he wants to weaken the free world alliance to benefit Putin! This trouble that he is creating will disrupt the economy round the world distracting the focus in the Ukraine war! And weaken the financial support that Ukraine's friends are consolidating to overcome the shortfall from US withdrawing aids to Ukraine! Lastly, that Orange lunatic is preparing a path to turn US into an autocratic, dictatorship system and align with Putin, so that he can corruptly benefit himself without opposition (he can suppress any opposition like Putin)!

I agreed with everything Trudeau said, except when he said Trump is a very smart person. Stupid is what stupid does. Trump does stupid like no other. This is Canada's time to shine. We need our pipelines flowing to both the East and West coasts. It is time for Canadians to invest in Canada and cut our dependence on U.S. trade.\nAmericans need to start understanding, it is Americans who pay the tariffs. They are just a tax. It has nothing to do with the border, or drugs, or migration. This is a tax on the working class and the poor so the rich can continue to get 5 TRILLION dollars in tax cuts.

I didn't vote for Trump - all three times. Unfortunately, more than half of my countryman were either too stupid and/or too racist. The first Trump administration was not good. I fear that this time, it will be worse. Keep up the good fight, Canada!

Trudeau knows well Dump is fat and stupid.....not smart at all. He just didn't want to put that out.

Born in Europe, brought up and trained into my profession as a researcher, in France, in the UK, in the Middle East, in Africa, and having been a permanent resident of the USA for almost 25 years, I can state that I agree 100 with what Trudeau stated, with the exception of one little detail If Donald Trump is as Mr. Trudeau suggests, an intelligent man, than he is simply detesting all Americans... and if is able to prove me wrong than one has to accept that Mr. Trudeau is wrong in believing Mr Trump to be an intelligent man, because even a ten-year-old is understanding that this tariff war is truly stupid and will not only damage the economy but will further deplete the coffers of businesses that are essential to world growth.

This stupid fool refused to trade LNG with Europe and Japan. Now he just wants his name in lights one last time.

I applaud Canada’s measured response to rampant Trump stupidity. Trump interests are not American interests. Trump is a traitor.

This is even stupider than Trumps tarriffs. Both american and canadian consumers will lose from this.

Are there still any Americans who want to stop this madness, or are they really all that stupid?

And putting 100 % taxes on Tesla would be a big weapon against stupid man Musk.

Oh he call Donald stupid! As he is

If tRump ever came back to say something , about what Prime Minister Trudeau is saying it would be something really stupid. tRump is destroying this country and we will never come back from this, ever.

It's not the American people who want this trade war, it's our stupid president.

This American, who's been proud to be one all his, life (but not so much these last few weeks)stands with Canada, Mexico, the UK, Europe, and the besieged Ukraine, and I do not support's authoritarian rule and and stupid, ego-driven economic wars with our neighbors and allies. Trudeau is what a real leader sounds like.

The Stupid orange idiot doesnt deserve to be called President.

Trumps stupid but hes not that stupid surely? ? Why do I have a feeling that a great deal of items he's put tarrifs on will be coming from Russia soon and this has been the plan along. Just saying!\nIt just feels so contrived and I cant believe Trump hasnt got a go to! ?
