This Old-Senile-Demented-47-criminal wants to start World War 3. Oh yes 47 is a jerk idiot, that’s why I’m supporting Canada. ???.Trudea wants to save life,but this American Con-artist wants to destroy life to keep his money ( read what the holy scripture said about the love of money ) money and power. I hope you Americans are happy. If you want soldiers to go and kill other mother’s children for this despicable criminal, not my friends, families or fellow Christian. If y’all want slaves , you voted for this criminal, so you go slave for him (47). I’m already mourning for those innocent who will get killed. Read : 1 Timothy 6:10 and Matthew 26:14,15. Like I said, you Trash-republicans and maga morons created this con artist, you take care of this mess. As for me I support Canada and all those other countries that this American Con Artist tried to Bully At?????

With tariffs being an import tax set up to deter local business from buying outside the country, then why put tariffs on american goods save for the 25% that goes directly to the Canadian government ? When we could keep prices down for our businesses and imports, it just seens to bump prices up for the microcosm of businesses and puts money in the hands of our federal government, but directly takes money out of contractors,businesses and so on....\nIf there are no contracts for instance with energy flowing to NY, why not bump the price 5% or 10 % ....

I am a canadian and half my family live in the US... we are not enemies but I am not alone in fearing what America is becoming and the direction it is taking in trade , geo politics and governing philosophy. \nthe people behind project 2025 are not rational old conservatives harking back to a by gone era, they are christian fundementalists enacting a plan to bring about the transformation of the US into a full blown christian theocracy. A christian version of the taliban. \nThe vast majority of Americans don't want this and I believe share my fears on the direction of the country... it'll be up to the corporate oligachs to decide how this gets settled and that should scare the crap out of everyone... because they just want chaos to make money, to profit and to self aggrandise and stride on the stage as power merchants ... they could not care less about the American people.\na time is coming that fits the orginal purpose of the second amendment ... let's just hope people are smart enough to know who to point them at...

Stop taking our money then ?

Trump election campaign he promised american people about tariff 100% he win \nThis leader stand with Ukraine our tax payer money never take any step up with or talk with him \nNow crying he is good actor proving again. He not worried because already filled his pocket

We as Americans need to get away from taking care of the world. Its our country and its our money that the Democrats are wasting to make the rich richer. \nThat's the Democrats way and we need to get away from it before its too late.

So just so I'm clear on this, you spent the last 4 years attacking your own citizens, taking away there voices and money, and becoming the worst Canadian president in history and we are supposed to trust you?

Trump is trying to end a war it’s not the same thing. We don’t need Canada if you haven’t been to America then you don’t know. We can make whatever you can make and better we can grow anything and more then you can just bc of regional weather. Canada is mad bc they make a lot of money off of us and trump is changing America and getting what it’s worth. America always pays more for imports and exports , why? and yet with out American people buying y’all’s stuff you your government will fall gotta keep last and for most gotta keep Canadian politicians payed as far as I know y’all haven’t had to worry about prices in y’all’s country. For years we have been paying more for stuff that should be made here or we pay less. Plain and simple we are getting what we are worth take it or leave. It will be funny when he cuts all exports from Canada it will take a little bit but we will compensate ans there gonna with they just took the 25% little saying over here is you never know what you got till it’s gon.

Trump is attempting to offset his tax cuts by implementing a tax that isn't called a tax. All of the money from the tariffs goes to the government. Trump has mentioned when tariffs were common as supporting what he is doing, but he doesn't add that at that time, there wasn't an income tax, so tariffs were how the government supported itself. Trump, knowing that tariffs are income for the government, is lying to his base so they will accept the increased prices as a necessary evil to battle the bad countries of Mexico and Canada. It will look like his tax breaks aren't hurting as much as they are and price increases will be the fault of the other countries.\n\nTrump is a conniving grifter with no knowledge of how to run a country's economy or international trade. He is gaslighting the American public to cover his own shortcomings.\n\nAlso, if fentanyl is entering the US, why is it the fault of the other countries? It is the job of the US to stop anything on its side of the border. Canada and Mexico do what they can to catch the drugs while inside their respective countries. The tons of cocaine and guns that enter Canada and Mexico from the US are caught by their border services; they don't blame the US for the products getting past their own border agents, and the US takes no responsibility for it making it across the border. Why is it other countries' fault for drugs getting past the US's border agents, but not the fault of the US that guns and drugs are going in the other direction? That is why countries work together, not fight over whose fault it is and try to punish each other.

Wow, how quickly you all seem to forget. We have been paying them large amounts for years and we as Americans have been paying for it with our taxes. So because you listen to the media and like the way he speaks. It's okay! Let's not stand up for ourselves and our country and lets keep paying high taxes and make everyone in the world HAPPY! How about just like every other president we let him do his job and see where we end up at. Instead of fighting his every move because propaganda and uncertainty, let's give him a chance and see were things go. These other countries are just crying because they can no longer take advantage of America and take our money.

Dear Castro’s Son, Screw Yourself! Anything you have we will just take along with your milk money.

I live in Nashville, TN USA. I am so sorry Canada is suffering due to Trump. I do not support this move on Trump's part. I never voted for him. I have known for many years he is a dangerous narcissist. Canada is our friend. You have come to our aide in times of trouble. Our forest fires, 911 when the planes hit our twin towers. Trump wants a 4.5 Trillion dollar tax cuts for the wealthy. He sees tariffs as a way to make up some of that money alone with huge budget cuts to many of our programs. Trump is an unreasonable person who only thinks about himself. I hope he will eventually be impeached. I do not blame Canada. I blame Donald Trump and the the Republican Congress. This is a coupe going down in our country and it is sad to watch. Take good care.

Trump voters should be embarrassed for their supporting this deranged person Kamala Harris wouldn’t have us in this position. Trump is so greedy for money there most be something in Ukraine that he wants so he’s allowing Russia to take control of that country. Maybe it’s something to do with some type of precious minerals such as titanium,lithium etc.

Canada has been mooching off the U.S. for years, time to take responsibility and make your own money, no free handouts anymore ??? #merica

Wtf do presidents think. Instead of working together we all kill each other and take money (a human construct) away from each other. How stupid are we?

Trump and his entire baboon administration is a joke and Trump only got elected because promised to lower prices on day 1 and he Has done EVERYTHING except that. TRUMP IS NOT MY PRESIDENT! He is a Complete dumb ass who is hurting our country's place in the world's eyes. Not to mention he is only trying to put as much money in his and his Cronies pockets he is taking food off of the middle classes tables and doing his best to erraticate the middle class completely.. We can't stand for this.

I think this is a desperate move. Our country is in a big trouble Joe Biden, he burn a lot of money so we have to take that inconsideration of these tariff.

Let's be clear Mr. Trudeau, with your pandering to the EU.. No one in your country is at risk. You're so cozy up there taking other countries and other people's money. Nobody in your country is at risk of harm, unless you want to try something? Come on Son! The U.S. is tired of War. We The People are tired of the killing, the killing you are so comfortable with. There is enough War in the world without you adding to it. Are we crystal clear now? We don't need you. And I am willing to go without a few things to prove it to you. I think a lot of Americans are now. We'll see. MAGA ??

They are all caught trap by the Ukraine propaganda!! Think about why and how war start!! Think about the past admin of US giving tons of budget to Ukraine without anything in return!! That was an American tax Money that just wants to take back. The comedian President of Ukraine rally for the money support and nothing in return?? This must be stop because American people will be in the edge of losing!! Step out of American soil if you don’t defend the nations interest!!!

Quit calling it a war Trudeau, they just showed us that they are taking care of themselves...trump will provide americans with what they need... You however have done nothing but take from us canadians..you made our country a drug pit..just drive thru any small to bc towns and look at how many more drug addicts are wandering the streets..10x more since your new drug laws...you give our money away, and how did you get so rich when you gov. Pay heck is only a specific amount?...you soend more canadian tax payers money on a two week vacation that what two average canadian house holds make in a year...rent is outrageous, inflation has put people in the poor house, and in the very end your ego is trying to look good just so you can go off into the rest of your life in your own delusion...go away man. Why dont you support us canadians by accepting the new financial hike and get us on to making momey in different ways...quit complaining and quit trying to get us into a war...when someone puts crap on me, i dont let them own me any further, i just cut them off and get on to living by rolling up my sleeves and doing the work... Trudeau, your just a politician who failed us, quit using the priminister position to make thinhs worse for canada...youve proven that you really dont care about canada, and that you have gotten rich by pocketing taz payers money...go away man...canadians, do fall into the spin doctor media war creating wimpering crap..lets get the right person in seat, manufacture what we need to, rebuild the military that we use to have, and get rid of the liberal party...truedau has done worse to us than usa has...

They are all caught trap by the Ukraine propaganda!! Think about why and how war start!! Think about the past admin of US giving tons of budget to Ukraine without anything in return!! That was an American tax Money that just wants to take back. The comedian President of Ukraine rally for the money support and nothing in return?? This must be stop because American people will be in the edge of losing!!

This Trump buffoon proves to us that there is no point in giving him anything. He takes the money and gives nothing in exchange: isn't that a thief?

Half truths. The fent as well as illegals don't cross those borders hes talking about. The smugglers know the weak points of that 4,000 mile stretch. This is like a little league player challenging Jordan. They Need Us. We are finally taking advantage of all economic streams as we should. The Taxpayers deserve a break. Subsidize our people with the money we send abroad and grow our economy, it's our money.

As an educated American, I am appalled by what is going on in my country. \n\nThere's a literal Nazi coup taking over and most cannot see it. Just know the American people in mass do not agree with Trump, he simply had more money from billionaires to lobby.\n\nMedia is so divided here I doubt you see any of this on Fox

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.

Trudeau govt. Is failed to maintain \nRelationship with USA .\nCanada need mature P.M.\nI respect bond between Us and Canada public.\nBut Trump is right he is now taking\nCare of his own country's economy. He is not allowing taxpayers money to E.U. & other country's.

Trump just made 2 announcements:\n\n1. He’s cutting off military aid to Ukraine, which has large deposits of rare earth minerals, basically handing it off to Putin on a silver platter.\n\n2. TSMC, a Taiwanese semiconductor manufacturing company is investing $200 billion dollars in the US and he’s taking credit for the creation of jobs this will generate.\n\nWhat do you need to make semiconductors? Rare earth minerals! Anyone smart enough to put two and two together would know that Trump, Musk and Putin are in cahoots to take Ukraine’s minerals and the meeting with Zelensky in the Oval Office in front of cameras was just to corner him and make him look like an ungrateful dictator so Americans would rally against him and justify cutting off military aid.\n\nThe Republicans in congress are set to make a pretty good fortune by playing defense. Enough money to not give a d@mn about reelection. It’s all corruption. Turning our backs on our allies and cozying up with dictators just so Trump, Musk and their buddies can add more billions to their bank accounts!

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.

Stop ripping off the american people we pay to much taxes for everything to many permits you tured of all the countries taking are money simple

Yes stupid men go get there ass kicked every day\nYou have blocked AB oil and gas from going anywhere other than us\nSo Trump can shut down CANADAS oil patch \nThat will destroy CANADA \nOIL money is what pays the bills Trump can shut it off today \nMake a deal with Rusha and never take another barrel from canada again

You know the truth President Trumpet, about Canada as our evidence proving sir that Canada’s Governments hire the international known Biker Criminal Organizations to put the Hit on Canadians whom have evidence against Canada’s very corrupted Criminal politicians of the Liberal Party and Conservatives whom for decades across Canada with their provincial underlings have turned Canada into a a Pro Domestice Organized Criminal state , all biker gangs in Canada and mafia have complete Criminal Immunity by all of Canada’s governments. Trudeau Pollievre are iars along with their provincial counter parts. Trudeau currently the head of his governments criminal syndicate’s. The governments of Canada are guilty of criminal acts against us by very much approving and hiring biker gangs and all their street thugs as well as many members of police and national security supporting these gang institutions with complete criminal immunity. The fact is that All of Canada’s allies that have embassies in Ottawa have protected Canada’s clear defined terrorist acts against my wife and I for almost 20 years one government after the other. The Trudeau Government has cut trade deals with other member states that include these nations forced to as part of the Trudeau liberal conservative agenda in trade agreements with out this being written with in those trade agreements that member states must adhere to a collective part of trade agreements that no nation in such agreements is allowed to present any criminal evidence against the governments of Canada by Canadian citizens . Factum. The Trudeau government and their entire Parliament of opposition are so frightened of our 20 years of evidence that they have closed off all my videos on YouTube to the public both with in Canada and outside Canada. The world cannot become all gangster states and gangster statemen for this will destroy the nations. Canada’s prime ministers have lied and lied and lied they do not at all deal with internal domestic criminal gang terrorism they secretly endorce all of it. Many American peoples suffer from the governments of Canada’s secret criminal gang Drug Trade. Trudeau for example decided to legalise cannabis a industry run by all the criminal organizations in Canada prior to legalisation making hundreds of millions of pot laundering drug money, Trudeau decides he wants a cut of the pot trade so he legalises all the criminal organizations running illegal grow operations now licenced to legally operate across Canada and sell pot legally to Canadians paying revenue Canada tens of millions in taxes the same organizations are now licienced by Trudeau to grow operations these same groups also are involved in international illegal drug activity in with South American Cartels and Mexican Cartels. Trump must come clean with God and take action against Canada 75 percent sanctions must employed. The reason why Canada refuses to join the U.S as a 51’s state is because we would then fall under the U.S Justice System and then the U.S would be shocked to see that Canada is a criminal state.

Haha America is NOT hurt at all, but Canada is. We have given trillions of our tax gollars to Canada for no reason, Canada wants the USA to give and give and take and take, but now you’re gonna pay up, only uneducated people are influenced be the trash spewing spouting out of this man’s mouth, we want our money back, I think we should take Canada by FORCE and show you there is nothing you can do!!!

I am an American and I stand for America!!! Time for American politicians that we vote into office to take care of America and not get sucked into taking care of our countries around the world with American citizens hard earned tax money, NO MORE - MAGA (MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

this is 100 percent justins fault. he let india china and russia take over our country we as canadians cant be trusted now. justins bank accoutn is full of bribe money and now we as canadians have to pay

I'm a Canadian, we have a massive piece of land and small population.\nWe should be friends with everyone. Never pick sides.\nTo look into history, U.S never be friends with anyone. They are only friends with money!\nI don't go against the Americans, but we also have to take care of our own economy.\n\nTrump just find an excuse to blame Canada so he can tariff the Canadian. We never do things to harm our neighbours. \nI spent thousands of dollars every year in Vegas and have multiple times shares there, but they chose to put a rope on us!\n\nI don't go against Russia and China either because we all have one common goal, that is a better life for all and there's nothing wrong with it!\n\nDon't worry too much about Trump, he is old and likes to show the world that he is powerful before he is gone! \nCanadian will ride through good and bad times. We all have to work together because we are hard working Canadians!

And now that trump has done this, let’s stop wasting money on American borders and the damned yankes take care of themselfs and they own border

Maybe he should discuss the constant duty fees and border crossing fees for anything shipped from Canada to the USA that have been constantly rising for years; fees that his very own government sets. Maybe he should talk about Canada demanding that anyone that sells anything foodwise to anyone in Canada from the USA has to have a special Safe Food For Canadians Food License or the goods being shipped will be rejected at the US owners cost, seized by the border and held in storage at the US owners cost, and destroyed and billed to the US owner. A license that no one actually needs considering other legal and ethical controls are in place to prevent unsafe foods from crossing the border, but Canada reserves the right to make us pay for one or we suffer consequences. Maybe he should discuss how they left their borders open to migrants, making it much easier for criminal migrants to get into the US. Maybe he should understand that the US has always been bleeding money to Canada on a trade level for about half a century with it getting much worse in the last decade because Canada's government are greedy. Before any of you come at me, keep in mind I work in the food ingredient industry as an order processing, logistics and customs & border crossing and have done so for 15 years. These tariffs were a long time coming and if any of you are on the inside of trade in the manner I am, then you know what I'm saying is true. The US is constantly paying additional tariffs by way of duty fees, customs fees, certain applied taxes (like there is literally a blueberry tax to ship US grown blueberries into Canada to prevent US blueberries from taking over the Canadian blueberry market). The blueberry tax is about 25cents per lb. which drives the price per lb. up for the seller and buyer. You wanna know why Food costs so much? All of the above with a huge side helping of GREED.

Putin has Trump dancing like a string puppet. \n\nHe has Trump causing all this turmoil creating economic calapse. \n\nHe's going to get Trump to lift sanctions so Putin can rebuild his military and weapons until Russia becomes more powerful than America. \n\nThen Putin will take Trump's lunch money.

Your an idiot Tru dumb dumb. You will lose. You have nothing we need ?? idiot. You are not taking our money anymore. Good luck tough guy. ???

It's sad that liberals think Trump isn't doing this because all these countries have been ripping us off. Do you think he's doing this for fun? Get yourselves off the corporate media. We are done being the world police and we are done getting ripped off by politicians that take money to look the other way when trade deals dont favor us at all. 30 trillion in debt. We cant continue to subsidize Europe and Canada.

Well stop mass importing Chinese goods and marking them up 1000% then selling it to the USA dick .....and Trump is trying to end war and the USA being taken for granted ....northern Gavin newsom stop taking money from black rock while your at it

As an American, Canada please let my family in! We don't like this crazy dictator. We are retired, and will not take Canadian jobs, we will only spend our money in Canada. Please open retirement visas!

woo, now Justin cares about normal people. But why do you still take money from normal people's pockets and hand over to Ukraine? why can't you take your own money from your own pockets?

canada is not a friend to the US, canada is a leach who takes as much as they can expecting the US to spend on their military so canada will be protected while spending money on their socialist programs. Living in the 51st state I hope this idiot ford and trudeau cause Trump to take over this state sooner than later....

Thank you maga this president will defenitely make us last in every which way and form. Your pockets will be empty , while he continues to milk the system for every penny he can and do things to get big corporation to give home more money at the expense of the American people. He is taking your job so he can reward the wealthy with even more and taking away Medicare and social security. This president will make sure that we the people are the last to benefit from his presidency.

Im American and i don’t care about other countries. Im for America and only America. Ukraine has been taking and taking out money. Weapons and we get nothing. Yet the EU is going to get their money back, but not us. And Canada got that tariff because of the fentanyl that’s coming across you and the Chinese border. So I don’t care if Canada is mad

That government had a somewhat level deficit UNTILL TRUMP AGAIN. This time the +3% growth that was there for him to start either is ALREADY at a -2%. Americans… that means your country is going to LOOSE MONEY IN THE FIRST QUARTER!!!\nThat’s a 5% drop!! That’s depression drop in what is “the best ever”, “the most healthy economy ever seen before” blah blah blah!! \nHe is starting the third world war and it will happen if y’all continue to take the lawlessness and bullshit\nNo one will survive two years, we won’t make it untill midterms!! Please someone take care if private bone spurs and his Bunions!!!\nI Am Canadian ??????

Trump just gave out 4.5 Trillion Dollars on Tax Cuts for the Rich Billionaires & 1.5 Trillion Dollars Spending Cuts from the American people's entitlements to pay the bill. Taking The People's Money

But what was trump taking about when he said we give them billions of dollars of free money every year I believe that’s why we got here us Americans are wiping everyone’s ass and when the toliet paper runs out we have to buy more we want you guys to start buying us toliet paper wipe our ass

This guy is an idiot we're just trying to be fair with trade they've been taking advantage of us for a very long time.. this guy is butt hurt because he spends that extra money on his airplane flights and Taylor Swift concerts..
