This doesn't make any sense to me at all this another reason for trump doing all this is so simple he wants Canada to become 51 state this man is delusional

How can you people on here say that you are American but you side with another country. Make it make sense have faith in our government!

As a American ,we can't make it make sense at all, our president dreams to be a murderous dictator too I guess

Watching here from Canada, originally from the Philippines, I am so proud of our Prime Minister Juatin Trudeau, person with sense, compassion, articulate, and mostly a Good Person, with President Zelensky not a Dictator One. God Bless.

This leader makes so much sense and is articulate!

Everything trump touches, he corrupts, then bankrupts. This is why it all makes sense and this is why it was all so predictable. Republican voters, go talk to your leaders. You already have them hiding from you, they won’t change until you make them fear your wrath more than Trump’s.

It makes sense, Trump wants to align the US with Russia & China. It’s not that hard.

It DOESN'T make sense, any of it. What makes even less sense is the fact that his countrymen are letting him get away with it. Hell some of them are even proud of it. Choose a clown for a president and this is what you get. A circus. The only thing you're 'making great again' is the empty space between your ears. But hey, how's the price on them eggs?

It makes sense that you don't want this as you have been ripping us off for many years. All we want is free trade. What we have gotten is lopsided trade. FAFO. The USA has a strong leader now. We have plenty of options to fulfill our needs. A little bit of extra cost is worth it to bring our industry and jobs back here and rebalance our trade agreements. Canada was running a fentenyl superlab which manufactured enough to kill off its entire population two-fold! We don't want that trafficked through our border into the USA. You may soon find out what happens when you try to strike someone who is much stronger. You may get it returned ten fold. We shall see. Goodbye dooshbag!

Please president Trudeau ? \nI am not part of this war. Mr Trump and Vance are responsible not us abeg o! That man no get sense...I no vote for am abeg o biko have mercy ?

Somebody please clap on his speech,\nAtleast the world could know that he is talking sense ?

I voted for Trump and a lot of his policies and actions I agree with, THIS one I do not, Canada did not let in NEARLY as many illegal immigrants as Mexico so it makes no sense why he is punishing them, and he isn't, he just doesn't like Trudeau probably because he was friends or friendly with Biden, same with Zelensky AND Canada wanted to ban products from red states for electing him which is frankly just a stupid policy. \nThis is not hard to figure out, Trump doesn't like Trudeau and Ford, plain and simple......it really is THAT shallow, he is trolling Trudeau by calling them the 51st state and anyone know knows Trump and how he thinks knows that.

The speech of Mr Trudeau, the way Canadians have shown solidarity for one another, today it all puts my country, The US, to shame. I am ashamed of what my government is doing and I am disgusted with the people doing it. In Mr Trump’s first term, as eclipsed as they were by the many many many actions and attitudes he imposed on us that embarrassed and hurt us as a country, there was the rare occasional decision I could at least understand even if I did not support it. Since taking office literally not one thing he has done has made sense to me as an American. I can only say how sorry I am for what the country I love is being used to do to you all, especially our closest allies and friends and in particular the people of Canada today. I grew up in Commerce Twp Michigan. I visited Canada regularly and, even as crime from Detroit poured across the border into Canada, Canadians always treated us with respect and welcome. I never imagined that would stop but now I find it hard to imagine how it might continue and it breaks my heart.

It does make sense. MAGA views the EU and Canada as woke. They like Russia because it is anti-woke and religious. They feel like Ukraine and Zelensky have sided with the Democracts. It is that simple.

As an American, I am ashamed of what the hell is going on. None of it makes a damn sense. Sorry to our Canadians brothers and sisters! Please know, We are not all insane.

From USA--wish this guy was our President instead of the moron in the WH. Makes no sense.

HE SAID MAKE IT MAKE SENSE SO LEMME HELP WE (THE USA) DON'T MAKE DOLLARS WITH YOU TRUDEAU WE MAKE CENTS!!! YOUR SUBMISSION IS ALL WE WANT ! WE DON'T NEED YOU NEED US! EDIT

If someone attacked me and another person said it’s my fault, make that make sense! ?

Make it make sense, indeed.

I used to think that the idea that Trump is a Russian asset was just a conspiracy theory. I am not sure of that now as how else to you explain why Trump is doing everything he can to undermine the USA? Why else would you cause a breech between the US and our allies Canada and Mexico? Why else would he destroy the infrastructure of our country through Musk and Doge? Why else would you stop all aid to Ukraine? Why would you stop cyber operations targeting Russia? Why would he set up an operation to humiliate the leader of an allied country fighting for its life against Russian aggression? Why would you send your vice president to Germany and have him insult our allies and not meet with the leadership of the country but rather meet with the essentially neo-Nazi Alternative for Germany? None of this--and many other actions--makes sense unless you begin to understand that Trump is actively trying to weaken our country to the benefit of the Russians. I know it is hard to believe but I can find no other explanation.

97% drop in seizures ? So you’re seizing less now ? How does that make sense

If you have to pay for friends they are not your friend common sense

It makes perfect sense what are any of you talking about you're missing the whole point we are all allied with Russia what Trump has wanted from day one get with the times. This is not the same country it was a month and a half ago

Was reading these Comments wondering how everyone was siding with countries that don’t put America first. Then I seen I was watching a video by fakeNN. Makes sense.

American here, hey Canada! Do what you have to do to show that you won't be stepped on. Our government is lost right now. I hope they come to their senses, but I'm really worried they won't. ?

I can’t make sense of it……..I’m sorry and ashamed of the US government……..thank you for spelling it out for all the people who casted their vote for Trump…. He is screwing everyone to suit himself!

Imagine Orange Donald trying this. An intelligent speech, off the cuff, no lies, just common sense and facts. Not going to happen is it?

Dear CNN, \n The last time Trump went to Ruzzia to 'Negotiate' anything, he curiously left behind his Translation Team, his National Security Team, AND his Intelligence Team and walked into a room with Putin, (who had ALL those things with him). This resulted in D.J. getting pumped for info for around three hours. This 'Info' Putin has managed to use to great effect, as he entered into the Ukraine War, and now Donald wants to 'Negotiate' with Putin AGAIN on behalf of Ukraine?!? Trump doesn't even use the CIA for his geopolitical briefings, he actually uses 'Private Services' for his info, (at Taxpayer Expense) largely I'm sure, because anyone who is close to being Competent at what they do would 'KNOW' things, and would be correcting Trump, constantly, which he hates with a passion. On top of this there's Tulsi Gabbard who the Ruzzians themselves have publicly stated IS an Agent of theirs for the last Decade. It's for these reasons and more that I say D.J. is a Traitor to this Country for the love of money. \n How much more of an illustration does one require for a 'Worst Case' scenario?!? A 'Rogue Actor' taking control of the U.S. Government with full access to it's Nuclear Codes. It truly makes more sense to go Radio Silent with America, (for the time being at least) and co-ordinate with Mr.Zelenskyy as to how you will proceed. I would seriously be 'dragging my heels' on that Royal Invitation as well, as D.J. will completely misinterpret that to mean something entirely else! We in the U.S. are undergoing a COUP, plain and simple. No need to Soft Sell it going forward as Trump and Vance have knowingly delivered us to Ruzzia without so much as a single shot being fired. Thanks for the Post.

I'm from Czech, EU is the next stop for Trump tariffs... Common sense can't be used here when he is convinced which side of the trade war will pay for tariffs.... (and he expressed his 'opinion' on this topic pretty clearly)\n\nEU is bureaucratic mastodon, but I'm still proud that on the right side of the real life values...

Noone can convince me that he isn't agent Krasnov at this point.\n\nHis actions only make sense if he is trying to hurt Western Democracies.

I can't believe Trudeau is actually speaking common sense. Sorry for our president, please excuse America while we put up with this.

How refreshing to listen to a leader who makes sense!

When it comes to Trump, NOTHING makes sense...

Now that's speaking common sense. Thank you for speaking directly to many Americans who know Trump's actions are madness.

WTF what do you mean make it make sense... here its easy Trump is a Russian asset , everything he does towards Putin tells you so apply Occums razor and it is clear as day.......

Mr. Trudeau, Don’t believe it’s anything that Canada has done. Most of Trump’s actions don’t make sense. But don’t expect him to ever get better. He is mentally unstable as any clinical psychologist can see.

I'm sorry, Canada. On behalf of the apparent minority here in the United States I want to apologize. We aren't all basement dwellers who disrespect our place in the world. We do wish you the best and hope that sense can somehow prevail here.

It’s the “make that make sense” for me. We’re all trying to figure it out ?. Trump already told everyone that these are “concepts of concepts”…what do people expect? He said what he said, and he was elected by a large margin ?. It is what it is. What are the solutions? I’m curious to hear the legal solutions so that we can all understand what is happening with these egg prices ?

American ppl have created this monster ? and being honest w/u, they don’t know 2 get rid of it ?????. This is non sense issue ????

He is working like a true Demonrat. They lie blame for his own doing. Where was your friendship Trudeau when your corrupt friend Biden inflated the Americans people? You didn't want to meet with Mr. Trump (who you say is your friend) to make fair and balanced trade. That seems like a one-sided friendship and we are about COMMON SENSE. Trudeau, you are putting Americans and Canadians through this because you don't want to see that Mr. Trump just wants fairness and for some reason you want tariff wars. That's the truth and you need to start speaking truth and quit misleading people with lies! That's why the democrats have been defeated because they are corrupt and they lie to the people.

Trudeau is the prime minister, make that make Sense.

Sorry Justin. Most of us are trying to make it make sense too. ??‍♀️

CANADA❤? Can we have Justin Trudeau when he retires❓❓❓❓\nWe could use a politician that make sense when he speaks, It's been almost a decade of nonsense.

It makes no sense! We should not be soft on Russia!

Come on, Turdeau, when have you ever made sense?

I’m disgusted by Trudeau as soon as he opens his mouth so I can’t listen to him - doesn’t matter if he makes sense (for once). Justin Trudeau is a criminal politician with no mandate. He is an elected dictator who won’t step down to further his personal narcissistic agenda. Even when he “resigns” he fails. Tariffs just make us pay more at the checkout - Trudeau is a lunatic. I have lost all faith in this so called “democracy” in Canada and I’m not completely opposed to a 51st state idea - it would be better once one looks beyond the Canadian pride and patriotism.

Make it Make sense that Canadian government has been taking advantage of America for a long time. You forgot to mention that part.

Your lies do not make sense. Ukraine is looking for volunteers for the Russian front. We are not at Canada's mercy. Trump is not Biden.

Do what you have to do pm Trudeau....the average NORMAL American can't make it make sense either ...smh

Make that make sense indeed
