Trump is like a Toddler thar never grew up. Sad for the Americans that didn’t vote for him, but now have to pay the price of his stupidity.

This is how a President acts. Not a stupid bully like the clown sitting in the White House.

It is becoming quite clear now. This isn't about drugs. This is a libertarian plan to crash in annihilate the economy and the government of the United states. One particular faction wants a Christian fascist government and the other faction wants a completely deregulated pro wealth government with no social security and no welfare and no aid for the poor whatsoever. Trump is just a puppet. A stupid and easily programmable puppet.

Mr Trudeau you are a great leader and unfortunately our country is totally F@$%@D because of one me who is a total Idiot and is destroying the country and I agree with you ?% that Putin is a lying corrupt thug Dictator who needs to be Stopped at all cost and I also believe he has to have sumthing hanging over Trump's head i honestly can't believe he is thst stupid anyways i hope you have woken up the American people and our senate and congress they need to impeach Trump ASAP and have his side kick JD Vance resign before they cuase even more damage you are a true gentleman who Mr Trump should learn a thing or 2 from God bless our Country ?

As an American, I stand with Canada against this terrible and stupid trade war.\nTrump is destroying the fabric of our traditional allies and institutions in favor of the extreme autocracy in Russia.

Those tariffs are such a stupid thing to do... for every country they are doing this, USA is basically making the chinese products so much more appealing for them. It would be MUCH cheaper to exchange those products for chinese ones instead of paying the tariffs. Congrats Trump, you are so afraid of China that you are actually EXPANDING its influence on the world. \nChina has actually the chance of doing something really funny now: REDUCING tariffs for those affected by Trumps actions. Just imagine...

TRUMP LAUNCHED THE TRADE WAR. as an American I guarantee you that the non maga Americans do not approve of these stupid tariffs against Canada and mexico. I support ?????? all the way

Reasonable my ass yeah. Don't mention Putin when you're giving speech about tarifs against US. Stupid..!!

What you sow you reap! The Clown and his Circus band of Puppets shows are on the road to create chaos to the American people including the Clowns MAGA cult loyalist! \nHell yeah! Good for you all who voted back the delusional and stupid dumb President ever! \nWhat you sow you reap! \nKARMA!!!??

Trump wants the World to collapse so his billionaires and america can buy up the stock market and dominate the World. It’s not trade blocks, it’s Dictator blocks. If that doesn’t work he’ll invade Canada and Mexico most likely and just take it. At this point, I hope America implodes. Either way it’s a mass suicide. Trump isn’t a smart man, he’s an evil man. And people who persist in making excuses for this creature are just traitors, the lowest of the low, stupid, greedy war mongers.

You Amercians by letting these megalomaniac narcissist Idiots to power are going to suffer the consequences... how dumb you must be to hit your most loyal partners in the back and suck the dicks of your enemy.... oh yes it is enough if you are Trump and Musk.... how did we let things go so wrong... ha yes... because we are to Stupid!

Why does he feel the need to stroke Trump's ego, calling him a smart man, while condemning his actions. He articulates all the harm and difficulties Trump's actions, and these tariffs will cause, but refuses to point to the source of this stupidity directly, and call him out for it.

Sorry Mr Trudeau, but Trump is NOT a very smart guy. He is dumber than stupid!

??EGGS WILL GO UP. \nGAS WILL DEFEKITLY GO UP.. ?STUPID PRESEIDENT...?\nWE/I/US/YOU/THEM.... \nTHE WHEEL IS TURNING AS YOU SPEAK....HAVE FAITH....\nFENTANAHL IS DISTRACTION FROM THE REAL BULLSHIT?

Peace now ☮️ stop this stupid war now !!! Trump is right

We don't want this either, but a few dense people voted this foolish wannabe dictator as president so unfortunately we all have to suffer for their stupidity. Trust if I had the financial funds, I'd pack my bags and move to good ol' Canada.

This is such an idiotic self-imposed disaster. Trump is either crazy, stupid, or both. What is his goal here?

As a disappointed and ashamed American, I stand with and support Canada. \nThis is such a stupid and unnecessary trade war.

Respect from Australia, this is exactly what Canada should do, stand up to this bully. I don't think you should bother trying to negotiate with him, Trump is a liar and a fool and talking to him is a waste of time, he's too stupid to understand. When the US slaps you, slap them back. I sincerely hope to see Mexico respond in the same way, slap Trump back twice as hard.\n\nIf the US wants to go kissing Putins ass, go on, but don't try to force the rest of us to kiss his ass with you.\nIf the US wants to find savings in government #DefundElonMusk a filthy rich man receiving government aid, he's sucked up $38 billion, that's government waste in the extreme.

Bravo! Prime Minister Trudeau. This tariff debacle is stupid, stupid, stupid and the American people will pay for this stupidity.

SEEMS TO ME TRADEAU AND ABOUT ONE THIRD OF THE WORLD WENT TO SCHOOL AND STUDIED STUPID AND BAD BEHAVIOR, ISEE THEY ALL RECIEVED HIGH MARKS AND TELEASED ON THE PUBLIC

Now watch the red hat brigade double down on their stupidity in the face of incontrovertible evidence that they are wrong.

Seriously... Did ANYONE expect anything less then stupidity from Trump? He's an IDIOT! Plain and simple MAGA is a threat to the US.

The MAGA Morons see this as winning. You can't fix stupid!

we are calling it stupid, because it is bad for the economie. But perhaps that is the point. If you know in advance when the ecconomie will go down or up you can make a lot of money. So that gives Trump and his court of oligarchs a considerable amount of income.

Trump = Stupid

Trudeau you are a wise reasonable person who loves his country and care of others. Trump is a horrible president, and a very stupid person on many levels. Thank you Trudeau to speak the truth and stand up for your honesty …Thank you..

Thank you Trudeau for letting Trump know how stupid his tariff plan will be for the US as well as Canada

And that is how a leader speaks. He even went into a fluent French version - something Trump is too stupid to ever be able accomplish.\n\nTrump and his administration are idiots.

Trudeau is being kind. tRump is a stupid, self-centered, vengeful spoiled, immature brat, who wants to punish everyone and anyone who may do as little as disagree with him. He will never apologize or admit he is wrong, but he will be cruel and heartless. We need to shame him and Vance and impeach them and all the MAGAs who support them.

USA. You are really f..ked to do such stupid thing. West changed to Far Far East.

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.

I will make one correction. Trump is a very stupid man. Nothing smart about him.

Trudeau is far from perfect. He has done some stupid stuff during his time as PM and before he was PM. But I will never doubt his love for Canada and appreciate him standing up to the Trump Administration. Yes, of course he has a speech writer. But so does the president and well, one is articulate and the other is a blabbering idiot. I'll let you decide which is which. Hint: the one speaking here is the articulate one. ?

As an American right now i feel more strongly patriotic for my Canadian brothers than my own government. We should be the best of friends and allies this is such a stupid fucking step for trump to take. He's destroying our alliances. I only hope our relationship isn't irreparably damaged before his four years are up. As a western new yorker who has lived by the falls all my life, im really saddened to see this. Sorry.

Trump Will Make America Broke With His Stupid Traiffs For Normal Business In America

Thanks Trump thanks for being stupid. Now you're stupidity will definitely put us in a recession.

TRUMP is real life THANOS.? He is slightly more stupid though.?

As an American all I can say is I don't support this and I stand with the Canadian people on this...more Americans opposed than supported this stupid move, Trump is a Traitor in my eyes and a stupid one at that.

On behalf of my family in CT. I apologize for this stupid action by the U.S. government.

A precise statement that elucidates the stupidity of Mr Trump's actions. There are no winners in a tariff war. ??

With a dumb, degenerate convict in the white house stupid things are bound to happen.

'Donald oh Donald... you are stupid.... You wouldnt pass the Macroeconomics 101 class in any serious university worldwide'

It's incredibly sad when world leaders have to call out trumps lies on the international stage because our own public is too stupid to realize them

Ignorant Americans (which seems to be a majority of us now days) only know what a “Tariff” is based on what Trump says it is, and Trump doesn’t know ? about what they are and how they function (even if it is his favorite word in the dictionary). And the leadership of our government are chicken-? when they won’t stand-up and correct him when he makes stupid remarks about stuff like having an “External Revenue Service”. What a f*ucking joke!\n\nAmerica first is America alone… We deserve all the ? that you’re dishing-out to us! Give us hell!!!

What more can we say about the stupidity of the puppet occupying the White House. His ignorance has been described in so many different (yet accurate) ways. In my eyes there is but one answer and that is that he is working with Russia and China to destabilize the world economy. Our DOJ dropped the ball. They should have slapped handcuffs on him on January 6, 2024 when we witnessed him breaking the law.

As an American, all I need to know is that trump and VD vance support Vladimir Shitin and Russia. trump chose to break the trade treaty that HE signed and stated recently that it must have been made by a very STUPID President. I couldn't agree more! And Mr. Trudeau, there is one thing with which we disagree. I think trump is a VERY stupid person!

That is way that a true leader speaks, not like the stupid , ignorant, and Putin Ass Kisser that we have now for president!

Bye bye America - ŷou are going to ruin your marketplace share and the world will turn its back on you, nobody will willingly cooperate with you and American goos will be priced out of the market, work will stop in America soon enough because others will seek other economic partnerships …. Stupid … trump will ruin you …. He’s a nut job … I see civil war in the states before long in whatever form that takes … the ones that will suffer will be the American people because it’s you who will be paying these tariffs if you want foreign goods. If nobody buys from you your inflation will soar. You have put your trust in a criminal who uses other people’s money to buy his way out of jail.

You are a very intelligent man. Tell that orange guy like it is!! He is stupid! We will suffer here! Don’t let him humiliate you, Mexico china like he does
