When are we gonna finally realize that Trump is a Russian asset. He’s been recruited by the kgb a long time ago, that’s why he can’t say anything about his Russian boss. Probably through his first wife. Deep ties… \nProbably been bailed out by Russia many times in the past so he owes them a debt of gratitude. How else would you recover from 6 bankruptcies. Think people??? Doesn’t this explanation make sense. We just want to deny what’s so obvious.

the USA sides with Russia and abandons its allies! sadly, it is the USA which is isolating itself and will be the loser. Is Trump really a Russian agent? I no longer have any doubts.

Trump, making Russia great again.

Trudeau is out - the tariffs are now equal - what is he talking about ?? No one is fighting with Canada - and Trump is trying to end a war between Russia and Ukraine - no one had been able to talk Putin into a cease fire and possible peace until Trump! Stop all this bs!

Could it be that Trump is actually working for... Hmmm let's say.... Russia?

Fake cowards. Wanted USA and Trump to wage world war 3 with Russia just coz Zelensclown's ego can't handle the fact he led his country into doomed.\n\nCanada gonna send what? LGBT soldiers?

I can't believe TRUMP is siding RUSSIA against THE WESTERN ALLIES. Such a huge betrayal of AMERICA

You are right!!...Trump is on agend from Russia...

The USA is now without friends around the globe: well except for Putin’s Russia. Canadians, Mexicans and Europeans are all united against Trump and his cabal.

Trump actually very consistent, he stand with russia and israel

I am a retired U.S. Marine. I love the United States and I recognize Russia as a mortal enemy. I cannot support President Musk and Vice President tRump. I stand with Canada and Ukraine. America is the aggressor against our friends in Canada, I am ashamed. Just know that most of the United States stands with Canada and Ukraine even though some voted for the tangerine menace.

Trudeau spoke well. I did not vote for him but he is doing great work these days. Under his leadership, all Canadians are united in this fight against the USA. He is absolutely right, this stupid war will have no winners, only losers, with the exception of Russia. To the Americans who voted for Trump or did not bother to vote at all, this is on you.

Trump is not even close to being smart. The six time bankrupt is bending over backwards to give Putins Russia everything it asks for. Trump is now a puppet of Putin.

I keep waiting for people to grasp what Trump is actually doing, but everybody keeps following the bouncing ball.\n\nTrump only cares about getting richer and getting away with it. \n\nFacts: Dismantle government agencies who can oppose his crimes\n\nFire employees who can stop him from his crimes\n\nMisdirecting to continue his crimes.\n\nDistancing the U.S. from NATO Allie’s and siding with China, North Korea, and Russia.\n\nTariffs to tank the stock market, making predictable decline in stocks for massive profit from buying PUT options.\n\nWanting to remove any oversight in his or Elon’s (his tech genius) actions.\n\nHe literally stated he wanted to “look at Fort Knox to account for any gold missing. (He will fire those in charge to allow whoever to go in WITHOUT oversight to steal gold. Then state yep, there was missing gold, go see for yourself.\n\nHe already had Elon dipping into our treasury.\n\nHe got rid of the employees / agencies that oversee election security. Why? To keep eyes off of screwing people out of fair and equal future elections. Guarantee he will change the constitution with his majority party and executive order to throw out 2 term rule. This way he can stay in power and avoid ever facing sentencing for his crimes.\n\nI can keep going on, bottom line, Trump is a traitor to America and what do we do with those who commit treason? Figure it out.

Remember Trump said we don't need goods, minerals, steel etc from other countries we have our own, but now wants Ukraine to capitulate to Russia in exchange for minerals. But Mr Trump you said your country can be self sufficient.

This is only my opinion It is all about Canada being a Liberal Democracy, Putin ,now Trump agree, that Canada should not exist, a pretext to invade, Soviet Russia from the North and Fascist America from the South.

Russia has always had Trump as a puppet, and he is doing exactly what Putin wants. Can anyone explain this in a way that makes sense? Canada?? Putin wants to destroy democracy, and what better way than through an Orange Turd? Americans you did this, so only you can undo this.

I can confidently say as a Canadian, what Trump has done and continues to do is driving the biggest wedge between Canada and the USA. The jokes of Canada becoming a 51st state is outrageous and i speak for many fellow Canadians when saying - WE WILL DIE AS CANADIANS before bending the knee to America. This is exactly what Russia wants and the only true winner from this will be the countries praying on Canada and the US's downfall.

Why? Because Trump is an agent of Russia along with Musk, seeking to destroy the USA, intending to destroy America's unity , alliances, economy and create havoc in the west. They are being successful in their goals. He needs to be removed. Soon one hopes the America Maga people will see they have shot themselves in the foot with their false prophet. Down with Trump.

Trump will turn to Russia for what he loses elsewhere. This is who the US voted for.

Trump want to destroy USA, he is a assets of Russia, to destroy our nation.

Trump is posturing to initiate a huge trade deal with Russia. Guaranteed

anyone figure out yet that Russia would love for the EU to approach them along with Ukraine with a truce proposal without US involved so that Trump looks like a problem... and separates us from our long term allies looking like people you cant trust. \n \nthe great deal maker is being played by putin. \n \nhe has divided the alliance, and now has singled out USA as outside the circle. This president is driving us into the dirt.

This trade war has nothing to do with fentanyl, Trump is a turncoat aka treasonous person who has been working with Russia all along and is using any and all excuses to cause people to look at anything else but him as he lines the pockets of his billionaire buddies because America gave him that when they said a president can't be charged for anything they do while serving in the White house. Thanks a lot supreme court and to all those that voted for him...... I hope you all get deported and lose all your money for putting us Normal non radicalized Americans through h3!!. It's insane how people are so blined that they know he lies and is a criminal and when hit with hard facts he calls it fake news and they all believe it. My own mother in law is one too. I hate this

Trump was never your friend,Justin,he has the contempt of North Korea,Soviet Russia and other wanba-be dictators.

TRUMP : MAKE RUSSIA GREAT AGAIN !!! PUTIN IN FIRST !!!

The Canadian tariffs imposed on US goods, will hurt Canadian consumers, and US manufacturers. How does this help America? Secondly, it has been reported that Russia is funding the manufacturing of the illegal Fentanyl that gets smuggled into our country, and around the world. Finally, TRUMP IS NOT SMART!

I’m an American (I’m embarrassed to say) but I am proud to say I completely oppose Trump & Musk’s plan to turn us into or over to Russia. They are in alliance with the corrupt project 2025 and Putin. They are traitors to America. Sadly the world must not trust them. They LIE. They are actively destroying the USA. Trump and Musk need to rule Mars. DEPORT BOTH OF THEM TO SPACE. I support Canada, Gaza, Greenland and Mexico. I WOULD DEPORT TRUMP AND MUSK IF I COULD. They are CRIMINALS and have no legitimacy in my America. Dirty Traitors.

These tariffs have nothing to do with Fentanyl. This is Trump trying to access Canadian resources for free- that Elon Musk needs for his businesses. This is Trump paying back Musk the millions of dollars Musk paid for the Presidency of the United States of Russia.

I thought trump was supposed to disembowel the left. Justin is looking heroic right now. Russia and China are the biggest benefuciries of this move. Who's side is trump on ?

Trump is working for Russia that's why he's doing everything.

Embarrassing! Anyone regret voting for Trump and Vance, aka Dumb and Dumber? They're pro-Russia and will destroy America.

Trump, you created this scenario. Why are we fighting with one of our closest allies? Everything that is happening with the current administration points to collaboration with Russia. WTF. Russia is NOT our friend. So one has to wonder why Trump is cozying up with them? What kind of kompromat do they have over him? How many within the administration are paid by Russia?

Trump thinks his Poo-thing will give him resources, lost from our allies. Russia ain't got crap for their own people - like they're going to give the US, a damn thing ?

It's about isolating China by befriending Russia. The enemy for Trump, is China.

Young Trudeau has forgotten more about running a country than Trump will ever know. I love Canada, the US is being corrupted by Russia.

Lets see Trump talk like this to his people....It's hard to deal with someone who is constantly changing the goal-posts on the fentanyl crisis (whatever that is...)to other petty things. Trump is a very dumb person, who really is not in control of his administration. Musk is the real guy running the show going by what he's been doing. As a Canadian, Americans have always been looked at as my friends who I would have no problem standing beside if things went real bad. your Mussolini dictator is not doing anything good for your country, he is trashing it before your eyes.\nSo long comrades, enjoy the free vodka provided by Russia.

Trump is inspired by Mr Beast games strategy. If you cant do better than the toughest enemies, attack your nearest friends. China and Russia, and even India laugh at USA now. EU now is cornered from 3 sides at least. Mexico was the bread of Americans, think about it.

Trump you idiot…He rather take sanctions off Russia

what if the true rationale behind this is that trump actually want to do more business whit russia. because you know who got lot of oil and gas to sell? that good russian friend of course

This makes sense. Trump has aligned with Putin. So why would we want to be friends with Canada. We have chosen Russia.

Why does he talk to trump as if he were an ally of Canada? It should have become clear by now that trump is an agent of Russia. Putin’s puppet. Trump is carrying out Russian instructions.

The people of canada can't even afford housing there. Trudeau has ruined the country,his approval ratings reflect this. America doesnt have any reason to fund a proxy war against Russia either. all you people have been brainwashed against the Trump administradion. FDR wasn't even going to get us involved in WW2, remember isolationism? we need more of that to cut back our military budget people

As a Marine Corps Veteran, a die hard patriot to the USA, and as a Trump Supporter; I do not support this. We shouldn't Impose tariffs on one of our closest allies. It should also be stated I'm not a fan of Trudeau at all, but I commend him for helping out with the fentanyl situation. Also I don't like how Trump is Siding with Russia. However I do understand his stance on not wanting to continue to send Money to Ukraine to keep the war going on longer, As we have sent them Billions of Dollars in the last three years. However as a US citizen I also have to state the the US has a history of supporting countries that were invaded in the past, which we have done up to this point in Ukraine. Correct me if I'm Wrong, but when have we just stopped supporting the invaded country and sided with the Invading country?

Impeach Trump. He’s clearly been bought by Russia

Everyone keeps saying this doesn't make any sense the only way this could possibly make sense is that Donald Trump has sold us out to Russia.\nDonald Trump is a Russian asset.

So, Forrest Trump is attacking America’s oldest allies, and siding with Russia. I’m going to build a bunker, and fill it with supplies.

and ofcourse trump amde a deal not breaking it usa cant be a trusted country with trump how many contract has he broken and your coutyr will be too and tyhe world stage your russia now and no country will trust you and your not the leader of the free world anymore the one rule for that job YOU MUST BE A FREE WORLD

Trump has allied us with Russia.

I am a military veteran from midwestern United States and a former intelligence analyst from the end of the cold war... we are friends with Russia now? F*ck you Trump and f*ck you Putin! God bless Canada, Mexico, Europe, and especially Ukraine! I hope to see my true friends resume good relations with us when this f'n cartoon of a president is out of office.
