What makes Trump the most transactional scumbag of all the presidents of the USA in history, is his pettiness. It is clear that Orange Jesus trwats entire nations the same as contestants in a dystopian version of The Apprentice. One of the many ironies is that his use of tariffs dooms Americans to paying ever increasing costs for everything they need or want. Just think of bananas which are one of the least costly fruits that poorer families may be able to afford and can be consumed by infants to the elderly with some kind of nutritional value. Thanks to the Gutless Orange Fool, even bananas are more expensive. But don't worry, the top 10% of Americans have 60% of all wealth so, they can have all the bananas they desire!

I heard trump was saying, he may reconsider returning to the W.H.O. I hope they tell him that they are not a jojo, and refuse him. Don't play his game

Trump will encourage countries to join BRICS--he may think it is the late 19th century, but there is a new economic power alliiance in 2025-- and its GDP combined is much higher that the USA. Let see how this works.

This is going to be fun: ~25% of crops may be lost due to migrants staying home instead of risking getting caught in the fields, another chunk of crops in California may be lost to contamination by the giant battery fire from two weeks ago, and Felon Trump is slapping tariffs on a bunch of countries the USA will need to offset that food production deficit.

Petro is the worst president Colombia has ever had. He is a communist who supports Rusia, Venezuela, Cuba…. China…. The worst. May God helps Trump.

This type of strategy only make the BRICS idea even stronger. More countries will slowly stop dealing with the US and make the BRICS argument valid. Trump's strategy may hit US back in a long term

From outside of the US, we can only watch as their current government is committed to the Nazification of America. Without any societal mechanisms to hold Trump and his community of miscreants accountable, this downward spiralling phenomenon may embolden equally as unfit for their roles in public office far-right parties in other parts of the world to do the same. I hope that there is time to stop this.

This may be a reaction to Trump suspending immigration. They might want to come here.

I am LOVING being in a RED state, that is leading the way, in cooperating with the Trump admin. common sense may be on the rebound

This is a kind of scam. At the moment, all countries struggle due inflammation and bad governmbet policies and most countries doesnt require any intake. It may change when president Trump comes in power. Now, thus is a free income for several countries.

AHHHH, now it all makes sense, if you are LOYAL to TRump and his agenda of hate you may avoid paying the tariffs. So, this is how this dictator is going to sway companies to kiss his ring and bend to his whims. I guess it is all about loyalty and doing the biding of this new American dictator. A huge step in his total take over of America.

This is not informed, These people will appeal and will be granted citizenship, which is what he means what he will be proud of. Reason involves hardship, treat's, being bisexual, trans , gay. Ukraine's and Palestine's and families were granted citizenship and welfare plus housing. Canada may deport the students and seasonal workers to look good. However the illegals along with the ISIS people that they have lost on Canada. Trumps actions are direct and he will take action, don't compare USA and Canada. Be informed, get answers, talk with people, then deal with one issue at a time, then maybe you may get answers.

Watch everything Trump and his goons try to do within their 1st 6 months. The nation will be in horror and also laughing at how fucking bad they've made a mess of EVERYTHING. So then America may just say (GET THE FUCK OUT AND STAYOUT) and vote all blue?at the '26' mid-terms. And elect Gavin Newsome as our next 8 year (two-term) Democrat President

Trump knows nothing! Whatever he says are lies. He just loves to treath whoever is in his sight.\nImmigration and drugs problems are of the US because its own needs of cheap labor and huge numbers of drug users. It’s so misleading to just declare that it’s other countries, and not the US responsibility. That media treats trump’s sayings with real significance is astonishing…, as if it’s not clear what djt is all nonsense. Precisely this 2024 US border crossings are at its lowest, yet ignorants, only as USers can be, voted for trump because of his lies, not because reality. That sick it is…FYI: Americans are all those born, or naturalized, in any country in the American continent, not only the US. Argentinians, Guatemaltecans, Mexicans, etc. (looking at a map may help understand how many citizens in this continent are indeed Americans.)The only crack in the continent is man made, by USers of course, the Panama Canal. America, as the continent was named before USers settled in this side of the ocean, is a nice one piece of wonderful land, where the US is occupying only a small piece in the northern side of the continent, that is, of America. US greed and ignorance can’t continue to define the world…

be carefull with what trump is asking, Chevrolet ford and another american company stocks are down after president Sheinbaum mention the letter she is sending to trump, may be mexico should make a economy deal with china who wants to deal with a toxic goberment ?

Unfortunately, there isn't a way to get a green card now.\nShe may be next to be deported.\nIn Trump's White America, us people of color are not allowed.?

As employees of GM/Chevrolet, I am extremely worried about the potential impact of Trump's tariffs, particularly on Mexico and Canada. Our products are manufactured globally, so I am curious to see how Trump's supporters would react if the prices of vehicles like the Silverado and Tahoe increased by 35%. Get ready, America, because we may be in for four years of unprecedented chaos.

A thorough exploration of Trump's ambitious deportation strategy, highlighting public sentiment shifts and the significant legal and logistical obstacles that may hinder its implementation. Thought-provoking content, well done!

Not the DOD's problem, not even their damn remit.\n\nTrump is an active threat to the US constitution, and to defend the constitution against all threats foreign and domestic, that is the remit of the US Armed Forces.\n\nThe greatest irony here is that it may become necessary for the Joint Armed Services to stage a coup-like action to prevent a self-coup by the Trump administration.\n\nAnd yeah, some of y'all may want to read about what a self-coup is.

She doesn’t realize. The Trump Admin may very well deport her too! They briefly eluded to going after naturalized citizens too. Aside from that, to support deporting your family after 20 years in bananas ?‍♂️

It astonishes me just how F-ing stupid Trump voters can be !!! This DA woman thinks she is SAFE !!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA !!!!!! Your Orange Jesus CLEARLY said that ALL…..ALL ….. ALL Hispanics are on the deportation list !!!! EVEN IF YOU ARE AMERICAN CITIZENS NOW ! Can’t wait to see her MAGA YEARS when she is in the line to be sent back !!! And does she have birthright children and grandchildren ?????? Looks like they may be on the list ???? ??? !!! He is getting ready to try to remove that that birthright citizenship clause too if he can ! But now that he will have total control on EVERY part of the government , like the song say …. “ Ain’t no stopping him now” !!!!!

Canadians will take them in ..And apologize to them for Trump's common sense .. The liberals hug a thug perfect for this situation. Hey, they may even swing the election in his favor...

Don’t worry, she’ll be singing a completely different tune this time next year when those P2025 measures begin to be implemented. It’s just too bad that people with common sense will be forced to suffer along side the people who voted for the chaos that is coming. \n\nI am also amazed by how many people voted, THEN decided to look up the candidates proposed policies. There was one woman who voted for Trump, and then said how excited she was because now, she could get the $25,000 down payment assistance for a new home. ??‍♀️ (For those who may not know, that was a Harris proposal). Take some time to look up all of the stories of people who are contacting state officials to find out how to change their vote…as if THAT has ever been possible. ?

Proud dual citizen Canadian here. Love the country, people and culture. However, the Liberal politics of the last 9 years have been a disaster, from high inflation, uncontrolled immigration, lack of pro business investments, homelessness, housing… this is to list just a few issues. The same thing has been happening in the US and Western Europe. Thank you God for helping elect Donald Trump. Many on this forum may not like the guy, but he was before, and will be good for the country, economy, overall people of the US and indirectly Canada. The Trudeau gang must go, a monkey could do a better job governing this beautiful Canada than that moron Trudeau. Do you all remember him saying…. “ the budget will balance itself”…. WTF… Really Justin???

She better hope she doesn't get deported. Trump just may want to send them All back.

Why is anybody surprised at her being ok that her relatives are being deported. She is not only influenced by Trump she is Trump. Not unlike him she is only concerned for her wellbeing devil may care for her relatives. This is who we are becoming as a nation. Unfortunately.

First Trump's administration is going to be jacked up with little known outliers with controversial and radical ideas. That is what Trump is attracted to. His ideas of tariffs and mass deportations are deplorable. They both disadvantage the US instead making it better. However, the tariffs may as well be a scam to get companies profits as when Trump says 10% on item A, companies are going to raise the cost of item A 12 to 15% or so and blame the cost increase on tariffs. For deportation's, I hope most people realize that many working the fields as low wage labor are very well illegals, but they are hired because they keep food costs low. Raising all prices for the poor Republicans will not be beneficial because prices on goods can increase 15% or more but their employer is certainly not going give them a 15% raise to match the cost of living. So Trump has already made the business environment good for more profits by planning to make life more expensive for everyone so business can absorb the additional profits. Probusiness politicians help businesses make money and that money comes from households and the government. And making the government spend more means the government needs to tax more. But TRump is cutting taxes for the people that have the most money. And Trump raising prices with tariffs justs makes households poorer and business richer. Naturally, the stock market will record highs when all the indicators are that business will be making much greater profits from households when Trump takes office.

Go get 'em Trump. I didn't vote for him, but this is going to be highly entertaining, much more so than before.\nI do feel sorry for the women who may suffer because of his and the Republican Party's efforts, but the majority of White women voted for him. I think his numbers among them actually increased in this election.

?Malarkey THANK YOU —for the broadcast. ? How about the fact that Elon Musk came into to the US as an undocumented person (illegal immigrant). No wall will do the trick! Boy Oh boy out of touch. Of course, no one wants criminals. —-how about the Bi-partisan immigration border bill that was stopped in congress due to Trump’s instruction. Over 9 billion dollars are paid into Medicare and social security. Paid by undocumented workers who never collect on it. —let it be clear THE AMERICAN PEOPLE AS IN THE TOTAL ELECTORATE DID NOT VOTE FOR TRUMP, due to the electoral process in the country, the Trump voter was part of a resulting majority in basically what appears to be a 50-50 race —-How about as I understand it 14 million unaccounted for ballots ?. JUST SAY’N ??‍♀️\n\nOne last thought to this newly elected Indiana GOP Senator, actually two thoughts, California’s Tax payers did not stand up and say we do not want our portion of the Federal Tax pool (that which Californians paid) to go to Indiana. Those funds Indiana receives from Federal funds, as well as, what Indiana voters receive in terms of Medicare and Social Security. \n\nThe other thought is, about you Mr GOP man however many generations you may need to go back in your relative line (family) what country did those immigrants come from and how did they get here——then did they work hard as most new immigrants do or were they some unimagined criminals. Incidentally statistically the majority of crime is committed by US citizens, not undocumented works or new immigrants. YEP, FEAR IS DISGUSTING AND DOWN RIGHT PATHETIC. ?

While it MAY be expedient to target criminal aliens first, President Trump MUST make good on his promise to deport ALL illegal aliens as a matter of national cultural security as well.\n\nAdditionally, the wall, a closed border (initially, and without regard to trade), and a permanent enforcement and surveillance regime developed AND deployed are ALSO campaign promises.\n\nTHAT…is the mandate.\n\nDo NOT shirk, sir.

The reality is Trump will deport the dangerous criminals. And give a moratorium to those illegals who work for low wages, with no criminal record, who support the elites and far left's business empires and property portfolios.\n\nAs a businessman he will weigh up the enormous cost of deporting the insane number of illegals Biden/Harris deliberately let in, with the value some may have in staying as long as they contribute, pay tax, and stay out of trouble. But the criminals, the gangs, and the sleeper terrorist cells must be deported to protect America and Americans.

If you dont think Trump’s rhetoric is not pissing off the cartel, in my opinion, he has already. Not only the republican young men lone wolf but i imagine the iranians and now i bet the drug cartel. I feel we are going to have s repeat of the assassin of John f kenedy. Trump has it coming tho, i hope not but if it does, may God have mercy on us

What about the immigrants that have been working and contributing and trying to get citizenship for decades and the spouses of American citizens still fighting for their right after paying taxes for many years - are we raiding all families homes and splitting up kids from parents? Did we ever find the families for the 800+ kids that had no details taken still unable to contact families that trump split them from the first time? Or does that not matter cause it’s not YOUR kids? Huh. When they come and create the detention camps and ship people back to places they haven’t been in decades who cares right they have been paying American taxes and have no rights while their years of waiting for their citizenship - fix that maybe so those who are working, contributing can stay and work in the jobs they have and keep families together. But no let’s demonise EVERY single person because most who voted are ignorant just like abortion about the actual application and situations that arise within a MASSIVE spectrum. Just dumb it down to ANY illegal, and does that also include the legal folks that GOP decide aren’t anymore just cause they came from elsewhere on an invitation? Springfield residents I would suggest if you haven’t or can’t left the state already you find points of contact for legal battles. \n\nWelcome to the start of your facist, authoritarian, white nationalist, dictator era AMERICA. What follows was your own doing. To any woman that voted republican - No matter your faith there is no well I always vote republican defence. Women have and will die for lack of healthcare, their deaths are on your hands and every republican. And so we are clear there are ZERO babies ‘executed’ after birth cause anyone changed their mind. The deaths of fetus carried to term are due in almost all cases to massive complications, unviable development or other mitigating issues. Those babies were wanted. They were mourned. \n\nWhere is the magic money for all these deportations coming huh? Reconciliation won’t pay the bills, and once the workers who do the labour that effect service, hospitality, food supply the costs of things will rise. But apparently multiple Wall Street and top economists telling you outright that trumps plans will tank the economy still you don’t believe. Even though Biden landed the best recovery in the world post covid and gop. When musk and the rich are getting another tax break and the costs of food and gas rise who do you blame then? If it wasn’t for all the innocent ppl about to suffer I would wish you welcome to just implode with this vile plan but the dictators like putin are already rubbing their hands together in gleeful joy. People of Ukraine I am sorry. People of Yemen, Syria, Palestinian civilians, Israel hostages, lgbtq+ communities, non white Christian faith followers, blended families, veterans, minorities or anyone fleeing violence, death or persecution - there will be no aid or help by the GOP Trump administration and in fact I fear you will be targeted by hate and ignorance or selfishness and greed. But I hope enough columns of good remain to shield as many as possible from what is in their plans. Folks who voted for gop while being in the targeted communities you need to take a long hard look in the mirror and soon you may experience your choices in vivid regret. \n\nFor those who still have a conscience I share your heartbreak and wish the future 4yrs pass quickly and a flicker of hope that there is still good enough people who will offset the hate, division and evil that’s about to erupt all over the country. ?️

Democrats, if you're watching this don't be offended. Rather, learn from it. You may not agree with these people's opinions but this is what the majority of Americans think and that's why Trump won. They don't care about the insults that Trump keeps spitting out. They care about their own self-interests. Also, here's what Stephen A. Smith said: Immigrants who came here legally don't support illegal immigrants. Imagine yourself standing in line for an hour to ride your favorite ride at a theme park, only to have a group of people cut in front of you without waiting. You would be outraged wouldn't you? I would and this is how they feel. Bottom line: the majority wants a stronger border. America may be a country of immigrants, but now is not the time to take in more immigrants especially if they're here illegally. We are struggling; we can't afford to help outsiders at this time. It's time to help ourselves out before we help others. It's not selfish. The truth is, how useful can we be to others if we ourselves are bleeding?

LOL!! I can’t help but notice this lady says “we need to take back OUR country” AFTER she’s secured her “GREEN CARD”!! Not sure if she realizes that many Americans consider people not born here as “outsiders” whether you have a “green card” or not!! SHE IS VERY LUCKY SHE ALREADY HAS HER “GREEN CARD” OR she’d be one of the many going back to their own country soon! \n\nPretty sure TRUMP views ANYONE who wasn’t born here doesn’t belong here, EXCEPT HIS & J.D. VANCE’s SPOUSES OF COURSE! But I think he may be concentrating on people that came in under Biden’s Administration for now??

Yes, yes, yes, i do believe Trump may have possibly mentioned that little fact IN THE CAMPAIGN HE JUST RAN FOR THE ELECTION HE JUST WON IN A FU<KING LANDSLIDE!!!!!!!!!!

So for those with partners who are undocumented, you can expect one day that partner simply won't return home. Prepare for the worst. It is now a reality. Your partner leaves the house, goes to work at a factory or whatever job and the location gets raided. Even if that person is latino and 'legal', it will take time to sort out the confusion. That person may not be carrying documents showing permanent residency. It won't matter. Once you're on a truck, headed to some undisclosed location as an 'illegal', that's it. The drama doesn't stop there...Now the partner left behind may not have income. That 'illegal' may have been the only source of income in the household. How are families supposed to feed and clothe themselves without support? But hey, this is the new (racist/sexist America). Glad the world got a chance to see this. These Trump voters ain't thinking but they will be the first ones to complain when things don't happen as they expect.

Cost to deport 1 million migrants 88 billion dollars. Sad I believe no one is going to see who is legal and just round everyone up because Trump has whipped everyone up in a frenzy. People forget he started a lot of the mess himself. May God help us all.

When produce prices jump in the stores because a lack of labor? When building contractors lose a portion of there labor building houses?? When the meat processors like tyson meats and others have illegals working through labor contractors!!!! Yes those of you who say how can they work? Well \nThe corporations give lip service but use contractors to avoid legal issues and inturn labor contractors uses temps lol and other modes!! \nWe are short of labors in these fields of employment. \nId like to see our MAGA voters go out and hoe weeds ???? Or harvest lettuce or tomatoes or bell peppers or plum on 8 foot ladders all day\nOr pore foundational cement for houses? This field has tons of illegals!!!!\nYou think you just experienced inflation!!!! Ha ha. Hold on to your hats because with the extremes in weather in the produce growing areas and labor shortage reducing yield further!!!! Prices in the stores will jump!!! That house may take 6 to 8 months to move in with a 10 % jump.in the price!!!\nAnd if trump put troops on the border the new president in Mexico has stated she will close the borders. So all of those parts and components produced needed for final assembly were stop.\nUnemployment will rise as companies get smaller profits add trumps tariffs. Youll add a trade war!!!!\nPrices go up because tariffs are a tax!!!! Consumers alway get those fees back on to the end user!!!! I give it 12 to 14 months. This economy will spiral downward. By the way, Europe and China have stated they will increase tariffs on items imported from America!!!!\nSo you will have a full blown trade war and products stop being sold!!!! Come folks figure it on out!!!! This is high school basic macro economic models !!!!!!!! Not rocket science here\n,,, your angry because you just experiencedthe back side of a pandemic . Now you want to have trump give you a 1930 solution froM MR. HOOVER. !!!! REMEMBER THE DEPRESSION!!!!

Thank God for President Trump, He may have just saved America in more ways than one.

She has no idea what’s really going to happen. Trump’s likely to ignore the existing laws and remove legal Hispanic immigrants or make it very very difficult for them to remain here. \n\nHe’s going to escalate existing ethnic bigotry, among a host of other divisive tactics, and she’ll see—along with other Latinos who voted for him, what’s she really voted for.\n\nThere are ways to handle this humanely, but think of how a certain German, his idol—per Ivana, his first wife—handled his power, and you’ll get some idea of how bad this can, and very likely will, really get. \n\nThe only possible saving grace may be his early signs of dementia, but he’s putting in place a group of likeminded friends, so not a good time to be different in the US.

Careful what you wish for guys you may find yourself in a world of pain study Trump's immigration policy really closely,I mean really closely.

Trump might have latino shot like black people in a traffic stop! Welp, karma is a witch when police have immunity. What done don't realize is that trump own the supreme court and may get 2 more picks. He can literally have them side with him and they are all out! Citizenship can easily be revoked with the infrastructure he has and project 2025!

A bunch of sellouts! tRump will y’all what is all about very shortly! You may think you’re protected just wait and see what he is about to do!

Trump may have won the 2024 election, will be sworn in on Jan 20, 2025 to become the 47th U.S. President, but Trump isn’t my president. Allow me to explain. There are certain attributes that define a U.S. president. A U.S. president places the citizens of this country ahead of his own personal interests. Trump doesn’t do that (hasn’t done that). Trump is self serving. On Jan ’21, Trump became an insurrectionist. Many citizens and police officers were injured and one police officers lost his life. According to the Constitution (the Supreme Court disagrees with me), Trump incited citizens to overthrown the certification of the 2020 election. Insurrection is one of the lowest acts any American can do, let alone a U.S. President. Trump states that the “insurrection” falls under immunity for “official acts”. Since when is “insurrection” an “official presidential duty”? Trump is a known Master Liar. This is beyond a moment when a president estimates, guesses and exaggerate numbers, figures and facts. Trump just lies – over 2k+ lies. Trump cannot be trusted in telling Americans the truth. Every time Trump opens his mouth, a lie flies out! Trump doesn’t appear to be able to help himself. One lie after another. Spreading the lie that the 2020 election was “stolen” and not providing legal evidence is an unforgivable act that Americans should #NEVER forget. MAGA, selected GOP, Christian Nationalists don’t appear to be troubled that Trump cannot tell the truth. To me, the truth strengthens the bond of trust – I have NO Trust for Trump! MAGA, Christian Nationalists and some selected GOP – I may use big words that you don’t comprehend such as: Liar, Convicted Felon, sexual misconduct, Insurrection, Fraud, election interference, Unauthorized Possession of classified documents. These are some, not ALL, of the words that defines Trump and his actions. These things do NOT appear to cause any concerns with the 71.2m people who cast their vote in the Nov 5th ’24 presidential election. Trump had unauthorized possession of classified material. (I am not certain what Classified Material Trump possessed, but if these documents would put my friends, my family and I in harm’s way – it’s a problem.) Again, those who voted for Trump, the 71.2m people, #NEVER thought about this. If they had, Trump would #NEVER have received their vote. America has a short attention span. How quickly have we forgotten that Trump’s inaction of Covid-19 could have prevented many from becoming ill and millions losing their lives. (If one of your loved ones have passed due to Covid-19, you will remember Trump’s inability to deal and handle the situation. It is something you will #NEVER forget.) I will not write a book here, but the listed reasons above is why Trump may be the 47th President of the United States, but he isn’t my president. My president would have #NEVER done these things to an American.

2 Thessalonians Chapter 2 talks about trump. It also offers words of encouragement. Please read I hope whoever does finds peace and energy to stand despite how things may look.

USA will Send Back To Canada over 2 Million Indian Students That Escaped Deportation From Canada Back To India - Trump Won The Election 2024 - His Deportation of 22 Million Illegal Immigrants Will Begin in 2025 - How Many of those will Escape To Canada - The Canadian/USA Border is the Largest Unmanned Border in The World - This will Be A Hot Topic of 2024/2025 - DEPORTATION is The Serious Topic of The Day Both Sides Of The USA/Canada Border on Both Sides - This Really Must Be Discussed - Have You Seen The The Destruction In New York City And Chicago By Venuzalean Gangs That May Head To Canada To Escape Deportation.

God bless new Donald trump, and may God bless America
