Yes, do what you need to do. Many Americans (including myself) stand with Canada. ? Donald Trump is a fool and is incompetent.

I’m a government worker in the city where I was born and raised. I’m also a mother, a wife, and a family-oriented person. Because of the sheer incompetence of this administration—and the people who blindly followed along—our future is more uncertain and jeopardized than ever before.\n\nI was planning to buy a car for our growing family. We had been saving for a house and making future plans, but now, all of that—especially spending—is on hold. The U.S. is a consumer-driven economy, so what do you think will happen when people like me stop spending due to uncertainty?\n\nThis is madness. We need to speak out, build mutual aid networks, and fight for a future that uplifts everyone—including our allies.

Democrat strategy, silence and wait for the chaos and dust to settle, and then wait for the Trump Administration to collapse under the weight of its own incompetence. Brilliant. ?

When all these displays of incompetence begin to hit the wallets of those in MAGA World, what then?

Please PM Trudeau, it's not the United States who wants to Trade War, It's Trump and his incompetency. Trump is not thinking about the wellbeing of the Americans......

Trumps small, petty ego battles are very costly to the average American and to lives around the world. Trump does not care. He is incapable of empathy. His ego battle and extortion racket with Zelenskyy is costing lives. Trump doesn't care. A hundred thousand extra lives were lost during Covid in America because of Trumps, ignorance, lies and disinformation. Trump didn't care. Lives were lost in Haiti because of Trumps hurricane response incompetence. Trump could have cared less. Trump sold out the Kurds in Syria. Thousands of lives were lost. Trump didn't care. He's a sick man and American voted him in. Now we have to live with it. Here in America, there is going to be a step too far. For half of America, Trump is way passed that. Dictators only respond to strength. Thank you Canada for making a strong and firm stand.

Trump will be speaking (whining)to a joint session of Congress today,which will be nothing but lies and grievances, and nothing about helping Americans. Trump is not playing with a full deck,both mentally and politically .He has no idea what he's doing because he's incompetent. He lied to the American people and he will never makes America great again.

WHY IS HE STILL MAKING DECSIONS...........?????????????????\n\nALL OF CANADA, INCLUDING HIS OWN PARTY VOTED HIM AS INCOMPETENT

The only jobs at risk are Canadian ones. A direct result of incompetent boobs on both sides of the borders. He knows Canada is screwed and the times of ripping America off are over. He wouldn’t be making a speech basically begging us with this speech otherwise.

Why weren’t you stopping the fentanyl from crossing your borders into the USA, 4 years ago. How many lives were lost because of your incompetence?

Americans…Wake Up from MAGA Propaganda Machine. The Nightmare that is trumps crooked 4 th Reich Will crater Your Democracy and Economic System. The Cultist Cabinet led by the Orange Menace, is the Worst Example of Incompetence and Ineptitude ever put in place by the American People. You have been conned by Chief Criminal, and his 40 Thieves.\nToday, is the Crossroad of America’s future. \nPolitical and Economic Disaster, World shunning as a Pariah State, OR…INDICTMENT, IMPEACHMENT and CONVICTION…by BOTH Houses. That’s You GOP.\nCanada, ?? WILL RETALIATE.

Trump's gross incompetency and criminality has been evident for the last eight years\nBut america still elected him

From Indiana, I did not vote for Trump or trade wars and completely regret Trump's incompetent handling of relations with allies Ukraine and Canada.\nI have so much respect for the leadership of Canada and Ukraine. May God help us.

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.

This is shear incompetence! We now know, ?The Art of the Deal mantra is nothing but BS, spewing from senile fool wannabe king!!?

The Executive Branch of the United States is occupied by the biggest f*ing elites on the entire planet, Putin's pet kleptocrat Trump, his foreign oligarch boyfriend Elon and a clown show of a cabinet. The most incompetent US administration of all time. Thanks Mitch McConnell and Merrick Garland. Lindsay Graham. Josh Hawley. Chuck Grassley. Canadian born Ted Cruz, who doesn't even defend his wife, much less the country. Leadership like that does not belong in NATO, it's what NATO was meant to protect us, Canada and the United States, from.

PM Trudeau, I’m an American and I don’t want this either. I’m not speaking for every American, but I know this “Trade War” is unnecessary and negligent. Thanks to our incompetent president.

Queen Trump is an imbecile and his whole cabinet are incompetent and unqualified this is so disgusting that Trump would go this far to attack and alienate are closest allies yet befriend our closest enemies really sickening

I have had many Canadian friend including my first serious girlfriend. I worked with exchange Candian military folks and saw them as full partners. On D-Day Candian troops had their own beach which the successfully captured. They were by our side in Korea and all of our other wars. DJT's excuses for the tariff are fabricated lies exactly as it made up lies that President Zelensky did not show thanks and appreciation. Why is DJT's admin lying? Is it simply incompetence or something worse?

trump can be removed from office on charges of treason. He is unfit and his incompetence will be the end of America.

I support Canada 100% and other nations Trump and his incompetent administration are going against. He’s a traitor and needs to be impeached immediately along with his goons!

I don’t think the US President and his DEI (incompetent) coat-tail grabbers, understand the full extent of what trade wars can do to the world.

We are doomed!!!!! Trump is a wreck less incompetent idiot

As a Canadian, most people here HATE Justina the incompetent corrupt drama queen. He/she is practicing his/her acting skills yet again.

The American people will have to suffer for their incompetence. We put Trump in power, and now we will have to suffer. Red states this is your fault.

This is disgusting. Thanks for nothing trump. You sir are an incompetent fool

Hey Canada, get rid of corrupt and incompetent Trudeau. Replace him with someone honest and competent and watch what happens ???

Trump is more supportive of Putin than of the free world. We don’t want this either. Trump is going to create a worldwide recession. Who does that benefit? No one. Trump is more willing to support Putin than our allies. For someone who’s supposed to be bright; he’s not demonstrating anything but incompetence.

As a European I would welcome Canada to join the EU a far more stable country, my absolute preference. The USA meddles in politics worldwide and we need to be independent of the US. The Trump administration is represented by incompetent individuals!

Riiiiight...Trump is dumb...says the man who has a 10% approval rating and may go down as the worst PM in Canadian history. He's genuinely one of the more incompetent world leaders we've seen in a long time....right there w FJB. These are dangerous men bc of their stupidity.

Yeah, ?-for-brains Trudeau saying that what Trump is doing is a dumb thing. The irony. Meanwhile, nobody can name ONE thing that Trudeau the narcissistically Indoctrinated alt-left Woke neo-Marxist dictator wannabe has done that wasn't a dumb thing. Trudeau the incompetent, incoherent, unethical, immoral, corrupt douchebag is throwing stones

The world says Chump is a dangerous M0R0N, and needs to be neutralized.\nToo bad he's too incompetent to do anything right.

Trudeau has been an absolute disaster for Canada. And the people voted for the incompetent fool 3 times.

10 years of incompetency by Justin Trudeau!

All our problems started with Trudeau. He's incompetent and corrupt.

It takes 6.5 years in Vancouver for a real-estate developer to get a building permit approved. The result = housing shortage and housing crisis. The explanation = a mix of elected city officials being incompetent and caving in to pressure from wealthy local residents who don't want their real-estate portfolio value to go down (hence they don't do everything they can to fast track building approvals).

Our weak foreign policy over the last ten years and the incompetence of the ministry of external affairs is amply exhibited.\n\nU S, now Canada , probably european countries and finally Australia might follow suit \nBack home in India the Modi government has completely ignored unemployment problems and is more busy tippling non BJP goverments and making the country a Hindu Rashtra . The question however remains what will the Hindus survive if there are no jobs , high inflation, poverty and now the influx of immigrants from abroad,, adding to all these.\nProbably that is why the BJP says हिन्दू खतरे में हैं।

Do not panic ! Nobody will block the work of the law enforcement officers !!! Sleepy Alzheymer joe and Sniggle Incompetence kamala are history !!! Four years ahead !!!

I live in Canada and even being most likely a victim of the US sanctions together with my family and millions other Canadians and permanent residents, I can't be pissed with the American government, We also have been suffering with a weak, corrupt incompetent leader, that we hope can be put back to his insignificance sooner.

These illegals are nothing but criminals and freeloaders, and the voters of NY are stupid enough to keep voting for incompetent and corrupt Liberal Democrats, so they'll have to live with it. Sanctuary states shouldn't get ANY federal dollars for ANY reason.

When TRUDEAU goes along with his entire incompetent woke Liberal party, guaranteed these number will drop dramatically on both sides, just like they have now Biden is out.\nCONTEXT: Canada population: 41 million --- US population: 340 million\n\nStatistics source: Canada-Gov irregular migrants webpage, (rounded) data represents ONLY illegal migrants that crossed FROM USA TO CANADA last two years (that they KNOW OF):\n2023 = 162,000\n2024 = 130,000\nTRUDEAU encouraged this by allowing them ALL to stay that POS\n\nStatistics straight from USCBP-GOV-STATS-nationwide-encounters web page (rounded) stats of ONLY illegal migrants that crossed FROM CANADA TO USA last two years (that they KNOW OF):\n2023 = 189,000\n2024 = 198,000\nBIDEN encouraged this by allowing them ALL to stay that POS\n\nNow look my fellow Americans, WE ARE NOT VICTIMS of CANADA. You KNOW we're not. STOP PLAYING VICTIM, it's grossly unmanly. We cannot hold Canada solely responsible for those ENTERING the USA illegally FROM Canada, without also taking likewise responsibility for STOPPING folks from illegally ENTERING CANADA from USA side. WE MUST BOTH STOP AND DEPORT THEM ALL. We'll BOTH be far more successful if we coordinate and cooperate towards the same mutual goal: TO DEFEND OUR OWN DAMN BORDERS AND STOP POINTING FINGERS LIKE WHINY LITTLE BABIES. WE ARE ALL UNDER ATTACK BY THE SAME ENEMIES. LET'S ACT LIKE IT.

For my American friends, the RCMP are a joke. They are heavily mocked by us Canadians. A useless bloated incompetent force that we all wish was disbanded.

You’re seeing this because the Trump administration is incompetent.

I’m Canadian and this is ridiculous! Our government is completely incompetent. Please just invade us and take over. Then ban liberalism of all kinds. Make it illegal all it does is destroy everything in its pathetic path!

This is what trump is saying and that is why he is slapping Canada with a tariff. The incompetence of the liberal government of Canada.

This tells a lot about how incompetent the Canadian government is when it comes to the aspect of Immigration.

The lasting effect of the incompetent biden policies

This mess is the fault of an incompetent president and his corrupt administration…. That administration used all those illegal aliens that’s all it was. They were using people they don’t give two squats about illegal aliens. They just wanted to cause chaos like Obama stated in one of his lectures if you want to destroy our society, you caused chaos.

If india invested in companies and r&d, we would not need to go out of country. Too afraid to compete or try and always beg foreign companies Invest and setup companies. They don't get if a foreign entity thinks it's worth investing, you failed and blind to see the opportunity you only think you are incompetent and afraid to fail and mostly don't want to invest and rather give freebies that doesn't generate wealth. Learn to fail until you succeed else you won't do any progress.
