Donald is not a smart man of course. But, in terms of approaching a fascist and a criminal, since Canada will be hurt, Trudeau has to be the decent guy he is. Brilliant speech, the best I have heard ever. The guy is poised and knows how to speak. He is smart and compared to him, Trump is incredibly stupid. Bravo. Let me be clear, Trump is a traitor, a bully, a conman, totally lacking in compassion...he is driven by his perverse megalomania and narcissism. He is, in reality a very mentally sick man. And the Republicans are his pathetic cowardly accomplices. Given the continued support, Trump will run American into the gourd, even risk a war to get the attention he needs so badly.

*DONALD TRUMP IS A STUPID STUPID MAN! HE SIMPLY DOES NOT HAVE THE BRAINS TO BE A PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES! AND OUR ENEMIES KNOW THIS!*\n*ALL OF OUR ADVERSARIES KNOW THAT DONALD TRUMP IS A FOOL! AND THEY ARE TAKING ADVANTAGE OF DONALD TRUMP'S EGO, STUPIDITY, AND GULLIBILITY!*\n*The MAGA-Republican Party is to blame for all of this! They supported Donald Trump every step of the way, and they are helping Donald Trump do all of these evil, stupid things!*\n*WE WILL ALL HAVE THE REPUBLICAN PARTY TO BLAME FOR THE DESTRUCTION OF AMERICA! IT'S NOT JUST DONALD TRUMP'S FAULT! IT IS THE FAULT OF ALL REPUBLICANS!*

I just moved from my California home state for the second, but just to let you know Canada i'm with you!! This trade war with these countries, are ridiculous but only to line, and continue to line the pockets of billionaires like Elon Musk, Donald Trump, and the tech family..... Trump has tried to stay close to Putin, but no one asks why?? We're not at war with Russia? He's been wanting the wealth Putn has every since he, and his wife visited in 1983.. He loves their minerals, and i ask President Zenlensky, if he signs that mineral agreement be careful how it's worded!!! J D Vance had know right to speak to Zelensky in that manner!! Trump, needed an education in government before he ran for any office, it's laws, etc... he's embarrassing when he speaks, calling other government officers stupid, and the like, like a child in school!! Why doesn't someone fact check Donald Trump vs Joe Biden with the things he's done vs the things Donald did while in office, as Biden knowing the law vs Trump as what he could do as a US President, not running this country like he runs his business!! I'm Georgia now, and still wouldn't voted for that man....!!!

Why would you call President Trump stupid? Stupid, you just called the majority of Americans stupid because they voted for him. You are stupid.\nI'm Canadian. If Trudeau wanted to look out for Canadians, he would have done all the things Trump asked for long before Trump asked. He would have done it for Canadians. Mr. President Donald Trump is looking out for Americans from day one, but Trudeau never looked out for the majority of Canadians in the almost 10 years he had power. He stifled Canadians, he jailed heroes, stole money, etc. There are 7 extreme scandled he was heavily involved in and over 20 others that would have put any other Canadian in prison for a very long time. He is a disgrace to Canadians everywhere.

That is because YOU americans are so dumb electing a very stupid and evil Donald Trump. Americans, remove Trump, impeach this lunatic now.

Uh oh... 50% tariffs for calling Donald stupid. He is a very sensitive guy, big mistake!

Trumps own words, “Vote for me, you will never have to vote again!” \nThis one is showing up on several pages. Make up your own mind. \nThere is something rancid in America, a slow, creeping rot that smells like cold McDonald’s fries, aerosol hairspray, and the unmistakable musk of a country too sedated to recognize its own hostage situation. For years, the idea that Donald Trump was compromised by Russia was dismissed as paranoid fantasy—just another wild-eyed conspiracy theory, another overblown headline in the endless saga of American political dysfunction. \nBut now, two former Soviet intelligence officers—Alnur Mussayev and Yuri Shvets—are saying it outright: Trump was recruited by the KGB in 1987, groomed as an asset, and remains under Russian control to this day. \nAnd the worst part? He’s already back in the White House. \nThat’s right, America. You did it. You walked face-first into the banana peel of history, slipped, and fell straight into the arms of Vladimir Putin. Trump was kicked out in 2020, spent four years plotting his comeback, and now he’s returned, like a bloated, orange cockroach that just won’t die. The Kremlin’s favorite stooge is running the country again, and this time, he knows exactly how to stay in power. \nIf you think this is just another round of the Trump Show, you’re not paying attention. This isn’t politics anymore. This is treason. This is foreign subversion. This is a God forsaken coup in slow motion. \nLet’s break it down, nice and simple. \nAlnur Mussayev isn’t some Twitter conspiracy theorist with a tinfoil hat and a podcast. He’s the former head of Kazakhstan’s National Security Committee, which means he knows exactly how Russian intelligence works—because he was part of the system. And what he’s saying should make every American’s blood run cold. \nAccording to Mussayev, Trump was identified, recruited, and compromised by the KGB in 1987 during his first trip to Moscow. They saw him for what he was: a narcissistic, greedy, attention-starved buffoon who could be easily manipulated. The KGB flattered him, promised him business deals, and planted the seeds of political ambition in his empty little head. And from that moment on, he was their man. \nBut Mussayev isn’t alone. Former KGB major Yuri Shvets said the exact same thing in 2021: Trump was cultivated by Soviet intelligence because he was an easy mark—too stupid to realize he was being played, too egotistical to care. They saw him as a useful idiot—a man who could one day be nudged into power, a walking, talking Trojan Horse for Russian interests. \nAnd now? The plan has worked. Trump spent four years in office weakening America from within, got booted out, and now he’s back for round two. \nIf you had told the American public in 1962 that a Soviet-backed asset would one day sit in the White House, they would have burned Washington to the ground before letting it happen. But today? Nobody seems to care. \nThe media treats this like just another wacky subplot in the never-ending Trump reality show. Congress is too busy fighting over meaningless culture war nonsense to do anything about it. And the American public? Exhausted. Numb. Checked out. Years of scandals—Russia collusion, Ukraine blackmail, classified documents, tax fraud, sexual assault, an attempted coup—have fried the country’s brain like an overcooked steak at Mar-a-Lago. \nTrump has done the impossible. He has committed so many crimes, so openly, so brazenly, that none of them matter anymore. \nAnd now, with Mussayev’s revelation that Trump is an active foreign asset, we have finally reached the point where the biggest political scandal in American history is met with a collective shrug. \nThis is how democracy dies—not with a bang, but with a goddamn eye-roll. \nThis is the part where the skeptics start clutching their pearls. “Oh, come on,” they say. “If Trump were really a Russian asset, wouldn’t there be more proof?” \nTo which I say: Are you blind, or just willfully stupid? \nLet’s go through the evidence, shall we? \nTrump spent his entire first term doing exactly what Russia wanted. He attacked NATO, calling it “obsolete” and threatening to pull the U.S. out. He tried to blackmail Ukraine into manufacturing dirt on Joe Biden, because weakening Ukraine helps one man and one man only: Vladimir Putin. He pulled U.S. troops out of Syria, handing power over to Russian forces. He picked fights with Canada and Europe while cozying up to dictators. \nEven now, in his second term, he is more openly pro-Putin than ever. He has made it clear that he will not protect NATO allies from Russian aggression. He is actively dismantling America’s alliances, just as Russia planned. And while Americans scream at each other over whether Target should sell rainbow t-shirts, Trump is quietly selling the country to the Kremlin. \nAt some point, you have to stop calling it a coincidence and start calling it what it is: treason. \nThe United States is running out of time. If Trump serves out this term without being removed, America as a functioning democracy is finished. \nThe media needs to wake up. Enough with the “Trump fatigue” excuse. This is not just another scandal—this is the single greatest infiltration of American power in history. Journalists need to dig into Mussayev’s claims, demand declassification of intelligence files, and treat this like the national emergency that it is. \nCongress needs to subpoena Mussayev immediately. His testimony must be public, and every document he has should be reviewed. If there is proof that Trump has been compromised since the 1980s, the American people need to know. \nThe Justice Department needs to stop pretending that Trump is just another politician. If there is evidence that the sitting president of the United States is working in Russia’s interests, he must be removed from office and prosecuted for espionage. \nAnd the American public? You have one last chance. This is not about Republican vs. Democrat. This is not about taxes, gas prices, or whatever nonsense outrage is dominating the news today. This is about whether the United States remains a sovereign nation, or if we spend the rest of the century as a Russian client state with a golf course. \nThe sheer volume of Trump's corruption, the blatant nature of his crimes, the mountain of evidence that should have ended his political career a hundred times over—none of it mattered. He survived it all, not because he was innocent, but because he drowned the country in so much scandal that nothing stuck. \nBut this time, it’s different. If Mussayev and Shvets are right, this isn’t just another chapter in the endless Trump circus. This is the culmination of a decades-long Russian intelligence operation to install an asset in the White House. \nThere is no coming back from this. If America lets Trump serve out this term without removing him, then the United States as a democratic republic is finished. The country won’t collapse overnight. There won’t be tanks in the streets. Instead, the destruction of democracy will happen in slow motion—buried under lawsuits, propaganda, and corruption so blatant that people stop caring. \nIf America lets this happen—if Trump is allowed to complete his mission—then Putin wins. The West crumbles. And the people who could have stopped it will look back, years from now, and wonder how they let it happen. \nGood night, and good luck. Because if people don’t wake up, America is going to sleepwalk straight into its own funeral.

Donald is sleeping with the enemies and making war with friends! He certainly lost his mind, CRAZY, STUPID, and A CERTIFIED INSANE !!

Because the ill-mannered, impudent, stupid Donald has pissed everyone off. With his Nazi friends.

He's a convicted felon hello please excuse my French but are you stupid death or blind or D all of the above When Donald pulls his final stunt don't be stupid death or blind put him at not with everybody else amen blessings to all

Donald isn’t a smart man. He’s a stupid man a narcissistic man. I wanna be dictator and a complete a hole.

EXACTLY, Justin is polite and friendly! Donald is stupid and dumb, VERY DUMB!!

I don't blame Canada for imposing their tarries against us. This is Donald running his stupid schemes.

I’m just crying here in TX. So hopeless over the destruction of our country. How could anyone have been so stupid to vote for donald. Utter nightmare.

Damn, we used to have presidents that can articulate like this as well… but, now… all I hear from Donald is tremendous, billions, millions, great, stupid etc

The USA is officially the stupidest country on record. Donald Trump is dumber than d***hit. All his cabinet picks are crazier than he is and half are just criminals. Trump and Musk are criminals. Pam Bionde dropoed charges against Trump for a measly $5000.00 campaign donation. Little Marco Rubio only agrees with any stupid thing Leon Musk wants. I hope your men have mastered your new German tanks PM Trudeau. I am against any war Drumpf could think of. We need to go to Ukraine and talk to Putin tank to tank. Putin is a tiresome little man. Why do you think Trump fears him so much? Find the answer to that question. Thanks PM Trudeau. No thanks to any GOP pig in the USA.

As an American I am so disheartened about things going on at the White House. A lot of us didn’t vote for this mess and their stupidness. I am so unhappy and disgusted. Donald Trump needs to be in jail not sitting in White House being a demanding bully. This is a nightmare, the last 2 months have been a nightmare. Look how elegant Canda, Mexico and Pres Zelensky are being. He was suppose to be making America great again. What a joke!

Please do not call Donald Trump and Elon Musk the government of the United States. They are the idiots of America. I am an American and I will stand with Canada and the rest of the world against Trump, Musk, and Russia. I wish Justin Trudeau was the POTUS! We don't have a POTUS, we have an orange grifter in chief. He is deranged, spoiled and stupid. Our largest trading partner and the orange clown fucks it up, wow!

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

Donald Trump is not a smart man, he is a stupid ignorant, small minded vile human being, he belongs in prison.

Trudeau : It is DUMP to do == Donald is DUMP == stupid

I live in the Uk and I still find it difficult to believe these republican senators are going to stand by and let Donald Trump ruin the America economy. And it’s sick that some of these stupid country booky Americans are siding with him. Just sick. The Democratic Party needs to stand up and be counted.

A prime to trust - not the lier who can only invite the north korean dictator and the russian idiot, and the american public has applaude like slaves in the roman empire.\nFinally even the iranian dictators will arrive in washington cause no one of the free world wants to visit stupid donald anymore

I blame the American people who voted for Trump. I am going to disagree with Prime Minister Trudeau when he said Donald is smart, Donald is as stupid as they come. Everything this man touches he ruins. Great job MAGA ????‍♀️

A great speech. The only lie I heard was the Donald trump was “very smart”. I think you meant he’s a “very very stupid fascist boot licking nepo baby with a talent for bull&h!tting that only works on idiots”. They sound similar, so I understand the mistake.

Question; is Donald Trump STUPID ????????

This is what usa put on the block when you that elected a stupid president again Donald dumb trump

with freedom comes responsibility, with choice comes consequences.\nthis is what you get when you choose a treasonous scumbag for president. one false thing here is calling donald a smart man. i have never known of a smaller, more arrogant, more stupid, less qualified sad excuse of a man-child than the orange idiot. as a veteran commissioned officer of the united states of america, i, unlike our president, am bound by the oath i swore at my commissioning. i am ashamed of my nation for allowing a treasonous scum to sell our county

The people that voted for Don the Con is just as stupid as him. Donald is dumb not smart at all. As a teacher, I've seen smarter fifth graders. Many, many smarter fifth grade students.

Yeah for Canada, to hell with Donald Trump. He is the most stupid person to ever occupy the Oval Office. He is a total disgrace along with the entire new republican party, they are Nazi Germany resurrected. It is a disgrace what MAGA has done.

Haha Donald Drumpf is just plain stupid. The USA is going down! Soon Americans will will get poor and addicted to fentanyl. ?

This isn’t’anti-Americanism’ how about anti-Canadian? As an American I can only say this breaks my heart that Donald continues to sever relationships with our nearest neighbors and Allie’s. How sad for all of us. Now tighten your belts America. This will hurt but Donald will tell you how great this is for everyone in his usual stupid bravado.

I never voted for Trudeau, but it is hard not to admire him after this speech. He makes Trump look just like he is.. an old, ugly, out-of-shape, and very, very stupid fool. The last thing Canada needs right now are bootlicking Conservatives like Pierre Poilievre. And on a final note.. Trudeau was wrong, Donald is NOT a smart man. He is an utter imbecile.

Trump needs to jail prison this idiot stupid idiot Donald Trump is not smart person he’s a asshole

Good for Canada, now that this nation (amuri-KKK-and world traitor of maggot trash) is operating under the stupidity of Donald dip-shit the idiot, and criminal felon liar. It is disgusting he appeases Putin, a Communist KGB tyrant and evil murderer.

Donald is stupid.

As a proud and sane Canadian I understand most Americans are not in line with the current administration in this and I implore my fellow Canadians in joing me to remain respectful of our American friends neighbors and relatives. Please cheer for the American National Anthem and repect the American flag. Donald Trump and his phonies will pay for their stupidity. To all Americans please don't take retaliation personally, but it must be done to protect our Country and our sovereignty. Trumps tariffs have nothing to do with drugs and the border. It has everything to do with his insane dream of being the ruler of the world.

His name is Pres Trump and not Donald asshole. if you join ukraine to insult the us. if you refuse to do what the us wants you to do,the us will deal with you accordingly. save all these speech. if you call it a trade war. so be it.canada has aligned itself with european if americans are stupid enough to think that they were friends under trudeau then you are stupid.

Pull the camera back and look at the big picture. The US has been divided sharply down the middle of the political spectrum. Canada has been crumbling under stupid political and economic decisions. This trade war is uniting the common people both American and Canadian and supportive allies around the world. Corruption has bubbled to the surface and many things that conspiracy theorists have been mocked for is now commonly known as truth. The people will unite while the Oligarchs mutter “let them eat cake” and there will be a reckoning. Donald might be making stupid choices, but perhaps that is what we needed to finally wake up and unite.

Hey MAGA, Donald Trump takes you for the gullible, misinformed idiots that you really are. \nPay more for your groceries, gut the social safety net you live off of, lose vital government services jobs by the tens of thousands daily - but keep supporting your stupid “Strongman,” eh? \nGive it a few more months. You might change your mind on him when YOU are directly affected, ok?

Donald will not listen, nor will the poorly educated who voted for him, but everybody bar the rich will be adversely affected by his stupidity and cons....and economies around the World will be harmed especially in the US.

I am Canadian, I have worked and studied in US for 6 years and I must say this is sad and stupid. Donald is not a smart guy like PM says he is sinister guy.

Thanks Donald for making Trudeau look like Canada's savior. This guy and his party were on the verge of getting kicked out before stupid Trump came along.

Congratulations Donald, you’ve managed to destroy another alliance and relationship. Trying to unwind 80 years of economic and security interdependence in the matter of days is not only stupid but dangerous to world order and American national security (defense and Economic). No complaining from those who voted for him. He’s doing exactly what he advertised.

???Kudos and well done Great Justin Trudeau✊ for Educating the dum dummer so called American Garbage President. Donald Trump is too Gramps and Stupid in the Brain ? to be a Leader of any Nation or President of any Nation. Is a Shame that those Americans that fall for all his lies and Propaganda to get him elected are bunch of BOZOS, because they are the one to face the dyer consequences.

Lol\nI love that Trudeau has to call Trump smart but this particular action stupid.\nIn the meantime, he knows just as well as everybody that Trump is an idiot. Little Donald isn‘t smart, Little Donald is a moron.

Donald Trump is always the Sultan of Stupid.

He’s insane. They agreed to let them come as long as they came on commercial flights or private plane. The only thing they didn’t like was that he sent them in a military plane which taxpayers shouldn’t like either cause it cost by far more to send them that way. This is all about Donald Trump’s ego. It’s just stupid. But it’s costing the taxpayers.

Trump that loveable stinky putrid malignant Narcissist that loves to bully everyone. Gonna be a Mess. Just say this mantra it simplifies anything that Donald J. Trump does. Trump's just gonna F*ck it up. Is like STUPID IS as STUPID DOES. That fits Trump too. Major MAGA Bully and Idiot.
