Im so glad that united states of America I couldn't be so positive proud of Donald j Trump I'm truly impressed that you keep you're word you did more in justice in the one month than Joseph Biden did in his first month I don't know how long yall color folks though yall was going to last I knew yall was here illegal but couldn't talk English want us to talk you language please no more hair braided illegal hair salon if you want to be America so bad do things right and decent folks ? ❤❤❤ yes now it don't fell good hun talking about Mexican cross the border he got yall to African go back to yall 13 women's country boo ? ?

Retaliation tariffs. That's a ridiculous idea. You don't win a tariff war when you're the country that has a trade surplus. In 2023, Canada imported approximately $431.2 billion worth of goods from the United States, while the United States imported approximately $354.3 billion worth of goods from Canada. That's going to hurt Canada a whole lot more than it'll hurt us.

B claim africa has a lot of resources, they dont even want to share those resources so why cant they make Africa great? Because they're too stupid to do anything good thats why.

TARRIFFS ARE PAID FOR BY THE CONSUMER, NOT THE COUNTRY IMPORTING THE GOODS, WHY IS NO ONE SEEING THIS!!!! \n\nTHEY'RE ALL IN IT TOGETHER TO SQUEEZE EVERY LAST COPPER WE HAVE LEFT!!

Good send them back too, as prejudice as they are against black Americans! They’re worse than the yt man.

Looks like an invasion to me, good luck, but I believe we're all out of compassion for strangers, no more social services available...

A lot of us Americans remember learning about the tariff wars in history class that ended up in deciding fair trade was the better route. I fear we’re about to learn the same lesson again…\n\nAs far as the drug trade goes apparently the GOV doesn’t spend enough time on the internet because the cartels are no longer just in Mexico they’re in the USA and in Canada. They have learned the Canadian border is a lot easier to cross and they can get into BC pretty easily due to relaxed immigration policies In Canada.. they probably don’t actually know where the drugs are coming from or where they’re being manufactured entirely. The cartels are probably a step ahead of them at the moment. \n\nI can’t believe the auto industry lobbyists were not instructed to go full send on the detriment of the opposite position taken from the NAFTA. The only thing I can see is auto sales are slumping and maybe they can blame this on the tariff policy for massive restructuring. \n\nI kind of understand wanting to negotiate with Mexico because they probably buy less American goods than Americans buy Mexican goods (drugs excluding) but I’m guessing Canada is a better customer of American goods than Americans are of Canadian goods. Why would you want to upset a good partner, customer, and ally!? It’s Beyond my comprehension…. If Trump was really smart he’d convince some factories to actually invest in Mexico with cooperation from the Mexican government investing in efficient transportation from the manufacturing sectors to the American border and the coasts for distribution. This would likely really help their economy and change the whole dynamic of all the things Trump has issues with. Fix it at the source not try to treat the symptoms.

Canada, you're welcome to trade with Argentina instead. Best quality meat, wine, fresh oranges, lemons, berries, apples and agricultural goods ?????️

Justine Castro is the fighter you're backing lol. Well all I can say is good luck with that. I can't wait to see how this plays out. Remember all you had to do is protect your border.

The reason trump can get away with it is, Canada, Mexico and China export way more goods to the US than we do to them. They're going to pay a lot more over time. Trump knows he has them by the gonads.

It's incredible that so many of the people commenting here don't understand the reason for the tariffs. We're being invaded by illegal aliens and deadly drugs. The point of the tariffs is to prod your leadership into doing the right thing. Stop allowing our country to be flooded with poisons that are killing us. If you're really good guys, you would stand up to the actual bad guy, your prime minister Trudeau. Keep in mind he's flooding your country with dangerous islamists. You should want that to stop

We’re just giving the Canadian’s and Trudeau more specifically a bit of a reality check. Youve gotten away with free riding militarily and diplomatically for entirely too long while acting smug and superior. Elect pierre like the people want and well let you come back under the umbrella like a good number 2 should.

Canada needs the US more than the US needs Canada. Canada lives rent free under the protection of the US. Canada wants to tariff the US go ahead. The US has vast amounts of timber, coal, oil, beer, cheese ,bacon and strip clubs. We're good Canada.

I'm a gas station oil purchaser and we just got the call on prices expecting to rise significantly Tuesday. Get ready everyone, this won't be good.\n\nStock up on food and gas if possible now. It's going to keep getting worse as other countries join in on retaliation. Remember these countries are only fighting against us while we're fighting against all of them. USA has very little natural resources quickly available (California water situation)

I love when you see a video like this and you know it's old, you know there's no way this bs is happening anymore. Thank you Trump, you're not perfect, but you're doing a lot of good.

Good‼️ there're already too many and they are lazy anyway!?

They want that's it they're mostly none True refugees as the Holy written word of God says refugees must be for Us taking them in. Not everyone of them is the hustle but most and up to no good for Us or our children and their children ? Horrific

And I'm sure with some people coming across the border. There may be a sense of entitlement, but I would think for the majority, it's a sense of hope.\n I wish we could embrace every person. That is good coming across that border with open arms and tell them Hey, it's gonna be all right. It's gonna be okay for you and your family. But unfortunately we can't. It's a hard pill to swallow and it's a final thing to watch. People have to struggle that world is a very cruel place for some. And for others it could be very easy in a sense. I think sometimes we have to have empathy for other people. And if we don't have that we're never gonna grow as a human race. Color should never, ever be a barrier. Language should never be a barrier. The only barrier that we have is hatred and just evil people and good. That is, the barrier that we should be looking at if we ever want to grow into what God created us to be eyes need to be opened. These people aren't coming over here and take what we have. You're coming over here because they want something better for their lives. They have struggled most other lives. I'm sure they have seen death. Famine pestilence, things that we have never seen in this country. Our generation.\n S are spoiled when it comes to things like that. We have to open our eyes a little further broaden. Our horizons and take a look at the situation at hand and not be objective. Be like the men of old and what they were put on this Earth to do is solve problems. That's what men are good for solving problems. And that's what the men of this manner should solve the problems. Use your heads think we can find a solution.

I'm reading.\n Some of the comments. I know my opinion may not matter. But it may eh inside some people. I hope I guess the way that I would look at this is being in their shoes. It's completely different than ours. We are given opportunities from birth. Basically to common deer, the life that we would like to have well, at least most of us are. In the United States, people from degrading. Or degraded countries are not giving those opportunities. So I would imagine over the years. Any type of hope that they had for a great country is depleted. Solidarity in countries like that is not accepted it would be suppressed. It would be stormed on and smashed out by the you. See an opportunity to better your life and your children's life. And it's the fourth quarter and there's 2 seconds on the time clock. And you've only got one play to make. We all go for what the big hell, Mary and I think that's what these people are doing and God bless every one of them. That are good people. I feel sorry for this situation. I wish the world was a better place, but unfortunately it's not all we can do is pray for these individuals that hope that they find solace in what they're looking for. And we have to prefer ourselves also and pray that God takes care of our country.And theirs god bless everyone in this world

Why are these people so willing to risk it all just to enter the US,? I'm sure they're not all good people.

Good get out if you’re here illegally

Good ole Ignorance. ? The BASE of the Republican Party. This ALL WOULD HAVE BEEN SOLVED IF THE LYING REPUBLICAN LAWMAKERS WOULD HAVE SIGNED THE BORDER BILL !!! What kind of Suckers believe a PARTY that just LIES to them EVERY SINGLE DAY OF THE WEEK. ? Republicans can say ANYTHING THEY WANT about a video, but REPUBLICAN LAWMAKERS ARE THE REASON THIS IS HAPPENING !!! They are LYING to your FACES PEOPLE. WAKE UP OR THEY’RE ABOUT TO STEAL EVERYTHING FROM YOU REPUBLICAN VOTERS !! You’ve ALL been WARNED !! Your Republican Lawmakers are about to DESTROY THIS COUNTRY AND ROB ALL THE GOLD IN FORT KNOX !!! Among other things !!!

I am Australian trans and I never changed my job I still drive semi trucks and excavators every day so if you’re good at that you do it doesn’t matter ❤❤❤

No need to make up a story about how cold it gets in Canada. It's nowhere near what you think and indicated like as if you were trying to chase people away from there. Get it right, don't just make up whatever you're trying to do to chase people away and then you pump up the good ol USA. Your narrator is exaggerating along with his wavering voice up and down on who's best.

First it's trans women can't be in sports because they're too good and too fit and will win all the awards against the poor defenseless cis girls but now trans women aren't fit to do military service but the cis women can stay? Pick a struggle you can't have it both ways lmfao.

I may not understand people that transition but I respect them. Just because I’m not gay nor am I transgender I have respect for them as long as they’re good people but that goes for straight people too!\nI hate when people discriminate based on not understanding or respecting others. It goes even deeper than that. Disabled people are discriminated against, women, black people, Hispanic people, Asian people, Indian people,immigrants, and the list goes on and on.

Was all 20 years of “her” service as a transgender, if not, then her case has no ground to stand on, because its even worse for the soldiers around “her” to have to deal with that shit. No place for transgenders in the military, cause now they’re asking to be included, next they’ll be crying about their own toilettes and barracks and everything else. All soldiers left their life behind to be part of the military, and they wanna allow this. Dont care how good they are suppose to be, they are a distraction, and the military is the last place you want people distracted. They dont have so many transgender troops that it will take decades to fill their place, STOP WITH THE BS. 1 person being successful, mainly because of what they did before the transition, does not make “her” proof that its not a problem. Thats like in the middle of corona and i stand there and say “corona isnt a problem look at me, im healthy” while other people are dying. 1 person can equal proof or can equal an anomaly. Espically since most of “her” success came before the mental illness.

They're not good I promise u

Thank goodness for the Red Wave…so sick of them thinking that they’re entitled to use our tax dollars to pay for their medical expenses and house them. America first ??

Everybody has some sort Internet connection. They need to look up what Tariffs are. When Trump was campaigning he said he was going to put a 25% tariff in China and all of his supporters cheered and clapped ! I’m sitting here going don’t they know that that increase cost is going to be pushed down to the consumer?!?!! It’s the everyday American who is going to end up paying that 20% 25% increased in cost!!! it’s going to affect our living standards and not in a good way! Not the wealthy people in this country who Trump says he’s going to protect because they’re his friends! I don’t get it! Trump is sitting here, threatening to put tariffs on all the countries that’s not doing what he wants them to do! And people cheer! Unless you’re the wealthy, you’re gonna be screwed with the cost-of-living that’s gonna be reflected in those tariffs!!

Hmmm and people still don’t see how this is getting to be a serious problem. They’re literally rushing in. Instead of taking the time to fix what they have they’re running in EXPECTING things. They don’t think they have to wait their turn! This is what open borders do. They lead to a serious crisis and entitlement. I don’t think I have the right to do that anywhere else. Not to mention we don’t have enough to take care of what we have right now. LA doesn’t have enough water to sustain what they have but they think it’s a great idea to open California and let as many in. What you’re going to do is crumble this country. One nation can only sustain so much. The president of Columbia didn’t want his own people back. That should tell you something. Yet American media is telling us these people are vital to our economy. If they’re so vital and followed by dollar signs, why doesn’t Columbia want their own people?? Aren’t they needed to build the economy there? Wake up people. This is a serious issue. We can’t save the whole world, we simply don’t have the means. If we stay this route what will happen is we will end up in the same spot that Mexico is. You have to teach them to build properly not bring it all here. That isn’t a fix all. Once we have enough gang members, drug cartels and murders from all the other countries, we’ll become those countries, while they’ll have it good because they purged all their criminals to us. They don’t want them back, yet we’re begging them to bring their problems to us! It’s time to take this serious and worry about our own.

Look, I get it. The USA is a great place to live and people want to live here. Just do it legally and you're good to go.

Guess what Trump you’re not the king of the world idiot! You’re president of the USA only!! And was only picked by 77 million people here out of 350 million people in our country. Stop trying to police the world!! And you and Congress need to remember that you work for We the people!! Not just oligarchs! Do what’s good for us not you and your rich buddies!!

You can gather tens of thousands of people to illegally invade a country but you’re telling me these same folks can’t put their heads together to build themselves a town. Or to gather in front of their politicians house and clean out their corruption in their country. Or to formulate a deal with some other country’s so they can get some funding to startup opportunities in their own communities. There’s enormous value in the fact that you can have this many people gather in person the problem is nobody has the brains or intelligence to be a good leader so that the human effort isn’t wasted. Even if they were to get in the problems their facing will not be solved. The problem is that that many people are putting their heads together and the best idea they all can come up with is to invade a country risking life and limb, abduction, and SA at the hands of smugglers and cartels is crazy.

I agree, why don't they rise against their own nations as a free people and take back their countries!!! They obviouslt have desires to elevate their lives in some way, we americans had to fight for our country and it wasn't exactlt easy, these people are weak and pathetic for running away from their problems only to bring our country more problems that we can't deal with ourselves, I say we just hand them all a surplus of guns and a campaign plan to take back their own country lol, as much as I hate seeing any human suffer aside from rapists and murderers and child sex abusers, we in America have too many problems ourselves, and I was always told if you can't fix yourself, or love yourself how can you ever hope to be and good for anyone else, and that rings so true with everything, these people need to stand on their own 2 feet and fight against whatever tyranny they have and become a free people, I know if they did that someday they would probably succeed, and perhaos if they did start fighting for their freedom and trying to take back their country, we Americans might help them succeed in those endeavors some way or another...Who knows, these people need to rush their own governments and plead with them or overtake them, they can bum rush our borders I see no reason why they're not capable of doing the same in their own country, massive numbers beats out a shaggy old military and corrupt government any day everytime, yes many lives lost, but the sounds of trumpets for victort will ring out loudly on the end, and the people can finally have the lives and country they desire, we ain't it right now folks so turn back around and take all this border crossing energy to fight against your own establishments

Good morning great advice thx. I love XAI308K so far - Elon is just so smart and we're lucky to get in early on this investment

Donald Trump acts like a little Hitler. Go ahead Donald You just goes for those tariffs on everybody and see our exports drop like a rock seriously sunny and the price of everything in the stores quadrupling. I actually hope so I actually hope eggs go to $30 for 12 eggs I hope tomatoes are 15 bucks of tomato and avocados or $30 an avocado and a t-bone steak is 100 because American people just we have it too good in this country for so long now we get a president that's acting like a dictator and violating law after law in the first week he tried to get rid of the inspector generals The ID inspector general and they just told Donald well we're not going to quit You can't make us quit You're vitally in the law Mr Trump we're showing up to work Monday. I hope mos The people in the garment to tell Donald to shove it up his backside that were coming into work and only have allegiance to the Constitution not a want to be Hitler or dictator or king we only pledge our allegiance to the Constitution and since you don't you didn't put your hand on the Bible I don't see you as president Donald what your left hand can't put your hand on the Bible and swear it oath to the Constitution is it that hard or are you swearing at nose to Vladimir Putin I bet that's what you're doing I mean you act like you you're butt off by some big billionaire Elon the ketamine snorter

Good luck taking the canal or an inch of land,we're a billion combined,time to unite Latin America and Brazil....

Best for Columbia's president to do the right thing & accept them back now. If not all Americans will view him as dumping his nation's trash at our doorstep, which weakened our national security & had done imessurable damage, upon which I'm certain President Trump will take swift action against him as an example to the other nation's leadership, and you don't wanna be THAT GUY! They cross Trump at their own peril, but the guy's a wizard at destroying people, places, or things, even your ideas if it pleasures him. Both parties are have rediculously long memories & do hold grudges. Case in point, Cuba. They never will allow Cuba to be anything other that a floating rock prison. Please do the right thing & take YOUR people back. We're at least giving him the bennifit of knowing who they are, and what they are BEFORE they can hurt your nation & act accordingly & it'll all be good. You need a little help, just reach out & let us know. We're here to work with you, not against you.

Good we wanted these criminals out of our country who were breaking into apartments and taking over our places , so now stop complaining on what he’s doing doing. Biden should of done this years ago and we’re having to clean up his mess. Trump just don’t play games. You play games, you win stupid prizes, so see what Columbia jus won, ya hahahah

It’s funny how he shift from the issue of how tariffs affect people in the US to the subject of migrant deportations. Yeahhhh illegal migrants are the main reason why we have inflations and higher costs of living. The consumer gets the short end of the stick. Companies who gets their good from overseas pass on those tariffs on to us the consumer, they’re not going to pay for it.

Trump is so impossibly stupid\n\nDJT: Hey Columbia, take these people back!\nColumbia: No\nDJT: Take them back or I will impose tariffs on you!\nColumbia: You mean tariffs that will not affect us one bit, but make the price of our goods more expensive, thus hurting your own people?\nDJT: Yes! Do what I want, or I will hurt my own people and blame YOU!\nColumbia: And they're stupid enough to believe that?\nDJT: They voted for me, didn't they?\nColumbia: Fair point. Still...........no.

As a Brit I know many decent integrated Indians here. But none of them are recent arrivals. Older immigrants were respectful and wanted to be British and adopt British ways. But newer immigrants act as if we owe them something while acting in disrespectful dirty disgusting ways. For example in India I have to use Indian toilets as Indians do. I don’t pretend I don’t understand how to use them, I don’t need instructions on the door and I don’t break the toilet by standing on it, shytting up the walls and all over the floor and leave it there like that’s normal. I’ve worked in offices where this was routine when Indian contractors were brought in. Integrated Indian men seem to take great pride in dressing smartly and smelling good. But it’s really common for Indians to smell REALLY BAD. Poor personal hygiene plus excessive amounts of Indian food (you’re abroad ffs try some different food!) creates a truly vile odour. Some Indian men also think it acceptable to stare at and harass British girls (although to be fair they do not have as bad a reputation as their neighbours) they are also rude and racist to white people especially women. Some Indians in 2025 still seem to think they’re living under the Raj and Britain is ‘oppressing’ them. They’re not and we’re not. The empire brought benefits to India and left peacefully over 70 YEARS ago. We don’t owe you ANYTHING. This victim mentality means India will NEVER be a proper first world country. You can flood the world with sheer numbers but you will never be respected or improve the world in any way, you will only ever leech off the invention of others. I do not mean to disrespect the many decent Indian people I’m just telling the truth. As a culture your presence outside of India is negative because of the way so many Indians act, trying to create India wherever they go. And they have the cheek to say this is ok because they got colonised. WELL SO DID WE! That is the truth.

My lord ….why people don’t understand about rules . Did everyone are forgetting about 911 !?!?? Do the right thing for better future nature. But !?The problem this society social media, make people jealous about life things, materials things, make people do bad things . For that !? We are destroying the world ? . I remember when the dollar was less than 2 reais, Brazilian currency . The time was the President George W. Bush family . I never forget the tragedy on the 911 . I remember The US , send Military to find the responsible the 911 , lots money was involved to support the soldiers .Lots country the time was not involved in the 911 . But did get the chance pays all the bills too “ because the money was going down quickly , gave one good opportunity to payback he United States money ?. Then thought The Americans never get back after, 911 !? Americans are amazing people, because they’re responsible pay for their own taxes , to support the country . Resume :::::::1= pays the bills to the United States of America, so the people from another country don’t live , to come to America ??. 2= make the money universal : if don’t “ the war will getting worse . The president the United States of America , Trump deserves respect ?? if you don’t . Bad times come true , to kip the American save . So much things to do with this planet ?, but people’s always want burn ? petroleum, for not being productive enough to care about the environment planet ?. We must use more Electric ⚡️ cars , to have better chance future rainy . ?

None of these people know how to do forestry, construction, and mining. They're good at dealing drugs and stealing

Thank goodness. Goodbye. Take your grievances home with you. Take it up with your government. Stop expecting America to mend your wounds. We're fed up!

The Democrat causes all the mess they did. Sadly, Donald Trump has to clean up the mess of the Democrats. Now they're making Trump look like a bad guy. It's good for us because we have to support them with our tax money.

The app was very bad for our country. No tests. People could come with ‘their kid’ and ‘bags of groceries’ and walk straight in. Furthermore, the security was told to not do their job. Hence, nobody would be there to stop anyone. Does not matter what they’re carrying, they could just walk straight in. Security risk. A huge one. The door was wide open, because Joe wanted it to be. Trump signed the order, and closed the doors. Now they have to do the legitimate process. Not walk straight through. Just look at the statistics. Nobody needs to defend Joe and his now past administration. It lead to very not good things. It is being solved now.

can't give an opinion about living in USA, because I never stayed for long (only for vacations or short visits), but as a visitor, I used to go once or twice a week in the 90's (I used to live 5 minutes drive from the border), as a visitor, I was always welcomed and made friends very easily. Of course, being only a visitor, I didn't have to experience day to day life or any major problems. About police presence, I guess it depends where you go in USA, I'm from Montreal & we also have a very visible police presence (guess it's common in bigger cities). Didn't have any problems with police in USA, like everywhere, if you comply, you'll have good relationship with policemen. If you try to play or disrespect them, you're in for some trouble--no different here in Canada.

Has anyone been to Brampton? That's a good start as to why they're being rejected
