I disagree with Trudeau on one point. Trump is NOT a very smart man.

IT'S NOT THE UNITED STATES BABOSO. IT'S TRUMP, VANCE AND MUSK! TRUMP IS NOT A SMART MAN! IT'S ALL ABOUT HIM AND NOT EVEN HIS FOLLOWERS. IT'S JUST HIM. KISS THE RING! I'M TRYING TO SAVE UP FOR MY RETIREMENT. IT WILL ALL BE GONE, GONE. MY NEST EGG GONE.! MAGA, MAKE AMERICA GARBAGE AGAIN!

Trump is NOT a smart man. Bag of hammers have more intellgience and use than Diaper Don!

Wow, he just called Trump a very smart man. Canadians really are nice!

A true statesman! How he was able to say that Trump is a smart man without breaking into hysterical laughter is pure masterclass!!! Give the man an Oscar!!!

One thing I disagree with the Prime Minister with, trump is NOT A SMART MAN!

This is totally on Trump. Canada did not choose this. I’m proud of the way Prime Minister Trudeau is handling this.\n\nTrump is not such a smart man. Smart men don’t attack friends and allies.

I disagree trump is not smart. He’s a dumb man making a dumb move.

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.

The only thing I think I'd disagree with here is Trudeau calling Trump a smart man. I know he's trying to appeal to his vanity, but it still feels icky.

Trudeau spoke the truth — except when he said Donald Trump is a smart man.\nDonald Trump is one of the dumbest people on earth. He only benefitted from being elected by even dumber people.

This is total Anti US propoganda ! This man is about as sinister as they come, and in bed with billionaire led WEF ! He clearly displayed that in his lock step response to covid and how he treated his citizens ( like caged animals)! This leader is a socialist and has nothing to offer Americans but to leech our tax dollars & use our military defenses for protection without contributing their fare share to support it! We have been the sugar daddy to so many nations with only the consequence of our tax dollars not improving our nation, but every other that we are used by! I’m not a maga but, but this president is using leverage the US still has ( although we’ve suffered greatly under the Biden Admin ). President Trump is trying to balance our budget by smart and fair trade, that puts this country’s legal citizens first! Fair trade hasn’t existed for many years, and while there may be increases felt by these tarrifs, our hope is that long term we manufacture more excellent goods here & use more of our own natural resources! Those commenting about what we are doing to Ukraine need to get their heads out if the sand…the Ukrainian people don’t want Zelinski but cannot get rid of him! He has taken hundreds of billions of dollars from the US and has no plan for peace in his nation…Pres Trump says enough is enough, and he is trying to not only end the war, but recoup massive amounts of money we wrongly gave through a deal for natural resources. Sounds like a plan that’s good for everyone involved, and that’s how you make deals! We cannot give whst we do not have & with our debt , we cannot afford to keep printing money, devaluing the dollar, and giving it away at the expense of hard working N Americans!

Do bussinus with the democratic countries left. The US under Trump left the group of democratic countries. Trump is not reliable and he is not a smart man, he is a greedy fascist and relations with fascist are always doomed......

Trump is NOT a smart man, he is the dumbest person to ever occupy the White House and he is destroying our country and all relationships with our allies. He is a traitor and a fool and what Trudeau is doing is the correct response to a rabid dog biting its friends.

I disagree with the prime minister that comrade Trump is a smart man.

trump IS NOT A SMART PERSON I DISAGREE THIS IS WHAT SOME OF THE AMERICANS PEOPLE VOTED FOR NOW THEY ARE GOING TO PAY FOR PUTTING A MAN THAT'S INSANE IN THE WHITE HOUSE. I STAND WITH UKRAINE AND CANADA.

Maga to really feel it now with these tariffs. The rest of us will suffer too, but red states it's going to be worse. You notice he had to sprinkle in a little compliment to trump calling him smart. The world knows trump is the dumbest president we have ever had. that man won't read.

One disagreement Mr Trudeau: Trump is “very smart guy”? Nope. He certainly is “clever” which is what delineates smart from “criminal con man”. Clever is what he uses for his grift, with American citizens and the national stage as his target market, to line his pockets along with the pockets of his cronies, the ultra rich. The bright note is that there is a huge collective of Americans who see Trump for what he is. We are NOT supportive of any of this nonsense since 1/20/2025. Musk/Trump/Vance are an embarrassment we did not vote for. We stand with Ukraine, Canada, and Mexico who echo normal reason.

Why do people keep saying that Trump is a smart man? He’s not that smart if he bankrupt his company so many times, and he’s not that smart if he can’t keep himself from being manipulated by other people. He’s a grifter and an opportunist. No better than a three card Monty player on the street corner

Trudeau was never ever seen as a smart man. It is a mockery for a fool to call a genius dumb. Aka: Same as AOC calling Elon Musk not smart. AOC's brain cells could barely count to 100. \nBut honestly, this fool Trudeau who is resigning because in the end he proved worthless and like a little lap dog had to snap at President Trump as he is ready to be ousted because he, himself knows that in today's world he is totally incompetent. \nMost true Americans know President Trump is right. And though we disagree on making Canada our 51st state, because we prefer to have it as our personal Democrat reject dump site.\nThe Stock Market downfall you can rest assured are more of the Democrats boycotting America which we have always known to back stab America every chance they get. Democrats have always been Americas traitors, and we wouldn't expect any different from them now.

Trump is not a smart man, he rather is a cunning criminal bastard....

Don’t tariff America. As a Canadian two wrongs don’t make it right. Get the energy out. Triple our global output. Our autoworkers need jobs well let’s build Trudeau. Talk and winning. Global energy. Let BYD in with out tariffs. We don’t have an auto sector anymore. ? BYD and get over it ( the eagles ?). Trump is correct at our lack of defence. Maybe this will help. The only way to scourge out of fentanyl is a clean source and less social stigmatization of the sick. Don’t expect a smart man like trump to figure that out.

This trade war has zero justification in reality. It will only end up hurting consumers on both sides of the border and drive the economy into a recession. Trump is NOT a smart man, he just thinks he is. ?

My only gripe is that he called trump a 'smart man'. \nWe all know trump is a moron.

He just called trump stupid. ? Well it does track. Trump is not a smart man. Just listen to him ramble.

The only lie told in that speech is that Trump is smart man..

Calling Trump smart is stroking his ego. Hès a dumb guy doing a dumb thing. Just like getting involved with the Russian mafia and the kremlin as a younger man

Smart guy Trudeau. Knows how to appeal to Trump with the biggest lie of all time: you are a smart man ?

I disagree with Trudeau that Trump is a smart man. I consider a man as smart if he contributes positively to the world. Trump is nothing but a con man and a convicted felon who is stupid and dumb as a door nail!!!!

Intelligent and professional. The only fact we should be checking is if Trump is a smart man, because I’ve seen no evidence of that.

PLEASE STOP LYING! tRump in NOT a smart man!

The only lie told by Trudeau is that Trump is a smart man.

SMART MAN... ?\nTHANK YOU TRUMP❤

Trump is not a smart man.

Most agree Trump is a weak man and not very smart,
